Mayhew International
Mayhew International works to promote animal welfare and the humane management of homeless cats and dogs through a network of community animal care initiatives. Our work with vets interested in this area of animal welfare has a special significance for international development, benefiting communities in developing countries, many of whom rely on their animals for support.
- We advocate neutering as the most humane method of dealing with the overpopulation of companion animals (cats and dogs);
- We offer information and advice on the setting up and running of sterilisation programmes;
- We collaborate with other welfare organisations and university veterinary faculties to provide low-cost veterinary services for local communities;
- We work with governments and local authorities in an advisory capacity to improve companion animal welfare conditions under their jurisdiction;
- We offer training for overseas veterinary personnel and animal welfare organisations;
- We sponsor vets in countries to set up sterilisation programmes for cats and dogs to combat the stray animal crisis;
- Our work stretches from neighbouring European countries to places as far afield as Russia, Romania, Afghanistan, India, Nepal and Peru.
