The
The Tierheim Speyer is supported by the Tierschutzverein Speyer und Umgebung e.V., which has existed since 1956 and built the animal shelter in 1959. The animal shelter is committed to caring for homeless, neglected, abused and unwanted animals such as dogs, cats and small animals. The daily care provided by animal keepers and volunteers includes feeding, hygiene, medical care, walks and professional care. In addition to found and surrendered animals, free-roaming cats are also cared for and boarding animals are accepted. All activities are carried out with a lot of heart and soul by full-time and volunteer staff.
The main mission of the animal shelter is to provide the animals with a safe, loving home, to ensure their health and well-being and, ideally, to place them with responsible new owners. In addition to administrative management, the supporting association also takes care of technical maintenance, repairs and the organization of events such as the regularly held summer festival and Christmas bazaar, which serve to promote public relations and finance the animal shelter.
Sustainability is reflected above all in the long-term care and maintenance of the animal-friendly facilities and the responsible use of resources. The operation is largely financed by donations, which go directly to the care of the animals, medical treatment, food and maintenance measures. Projects to improve medical care and animal welfare are regularly supported by donations, which are also used for modern care and necessary renovations.
Through cooperations, such as with the Mannheim Business School, the animal shelter receives additional support in various areas, which promotes innovation and optimization of the work. Overall, the Tierheim Speyer stands for sustainable animal welfare, responsible animal placement and a warm community of employees, volunteers and sponsors who are dedicated to the well-being of the animals with great dedication.
This description summarizes the essential services, values and goals of the Tierheim Speyer in a compact form and conveys a comprehensive picture of the institution as a committed, sustainable point of contact for animal welfare and protection in the region[1][2][3][4][5].
