Vienna Animal Shelter Overwhelmed by Abandoned Cats: Kittens and Neglected Adults Need Help

Vienna's TierQuarTier is currently facing a crisis with a significant increase in abandoned cats, including vulnerable kittens and neglected adult cats. In just a few days, over 30 cats have arrived at the shelter, highlighting a concerning trend of pet abandonment in the region. Mamacita, a young cat found with her five kittens in a garden, exemplifies the situation. Malnourished and weak, they are now receiving necessary care at TierQuarTier. Thomas Benda, operations manager at TierQuarTier Vienna, expressed his dismay, stating that animals are increasingly being carelessly abandoned. Abandoning animals is illegal in Austria and can result in fines up to 7,500 euros. TierQuarTier Vienna emphasizes responsible pet ownership through chipping, registration, and neutering. The shelter is also seeking public donations to aid in the care of these abandoned animals. Consider supporting TierQuarTier Vienna to help them continue their vital work in caring for abandoned and neglected animals. Donations and sponsorships can be made through their website.
