Join The Care For Cats Club To Save Many More Like.. 24th Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
Divan spent the first year of her life fighting for survival. She had to navigate Thailand’s dangerous roads, forage for food and find shelter – all alone.
But when she became infested with mange, she knew it was time to ask for help. Divan was found meowing desperately by a main road. When a passerby saw her condition, he rushed her to our shelter immediately. Mites had burrowed deep beneath her skin, and in her desperation to relieve the irritation, she scratched and scratched until the f...

Updates On 24th Mar 2020 24th Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
Last year we opened our brand new cat hospital - it was a real milestone for Soi Dog Foundation.
The eagerly anticipated and long-overdue facility provides the best possible surroundings for the treatment and recovery of sick and injured street cats. The new building replaces the smaller, previous cat hospital facility that was permanently operating over capacity with both resident cats and new hospital patients. That facility is, in turn, being refurbished and repurposed as a dedicated cattery...

Open Your Heart And Your Home For This Very Specia.. 24th Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
Hi there! My name’s Harry, and I have a fascinating feline fact for you. Did you know that cats have three eyelids? As well as the upper and lower ’lids, there’s another one in the corner, close to our noses.
These eyelids are usually unnoticeable but, as you can see, mine protrude a little. Luckily for me, a world-class ophthalmologist visited the shelter and offered to examine me. He said that, while it’s not possible to fix the protrusion, I’m still a healthy boy. And in his exper...

Help Stop The Horror In Hanoi! 24th Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
We very much welcome this move to draft a directive to stop illegal trading and consumption of wildlife in Vietnam. https://links.soidog.org/Wildlife-Trading-in-Vietn am-at-halt
But with dog and cat meat stalls common at wet markets, we strongly urge the Vietnamese authorities to include companion animals in the directive, making the trade and consumption of dog and cat meat illegal too.
As part of Soi Dog Foundation’s campaign in Hanoi, we are asking Formula 1 to use their influence to pus...

It's World Water Day Today, And This Year's Theme .. 24th Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
It's World Water Day today, and this year's theme is water and climate change – and how the two are inextricably linked.

Here at Soi Dog Foundation, we see the importance of sustainable water management such as recycling of waste water. As part of Soi Dog's Go Green In...

Let Me Be Proof That Love Is Blind! 22nd Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
Hello there. My name is New Lilly, and I’m told I’m one of the sweetest dogs here at the shelter. I arrived here in June 2017 from the local Government Pound. The vets discovered that I am blind and knew I would be safest coming to Soi Dog. Everyone wondered how I’d managed to live on the streets. But as soon as I entered the enclosure with other dogs with special needs, I showed everyone how smart I am and how I manage my blindness really well.
I walk well on a lead with support from vo...

My Name Is Fasuay And I Was Struggling With Terrib.. 22nd Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
My name is Fasuay and I was struggling with terrible skin problems when the humans here found me. Living on the streets as a homeless dog, I had no owner to care for me and take me for medical treatment.
My skin problems had caused me to lose most of my fur, leaving me with bald spots all over my body and painful open sores from where I was constantly scratching myself. Back then, the sadness in my eyes was clearly visible.
Will you please sponsor my care? https://links.soidog.org/Sponsor-Fa...

Cat Of The Week As Well As His Striking Fur Markin.. 21st Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
🌟 Cat of the week 🌟 As well as his striking fur markings and pink button nose, Jaonui is lucky enough to have travel donations to his name, meaning the cost of the journey to his new home is reduced.
Jaonui came to us after he was hit by a car. The manager of a restaurant found him hiding under one of the tables, injured and completely shaken up. It turned out that his right hind leg was badly fractured. Despite treatment, the wound would not heal, so his leg had to be amputated.
But Jao...

Dogs Like Cascade Need You Now More Than Ever! 21st Mar 2020, by Soi Dog Foundation
A few months ago she couldn’t even stand. Poor Cascade faced a long road to recovery after she was badly injured in a hit and run. On arrival at Soi Dog, she laid silent and still as the vets examined her fractured hips and pelvis. The pain was clear in this brave girl’s brown eyes.
Incredibly, following surgery and physiotherapy at our dedicated dog hospital, this three-year-old beauty is now back on four paws and able to walk, run and jump once again.
Because of wonderful Emergency Resp...

I know when you think of the word “boogie”, having fun comes to mind – like dancing or surfing on a boogie board. But when I was living as a street dog, my life was anything but fun. I had no owner to look out for me, and so I wandered th...

Like far too many dogs in Thailand, I was the victim of a road traffic accident that left me with multiple fractures to my hips and legs. A local man found me at the side of the road, unable to walk, and rushed me to the nearest animal hospital. This kind soul pai...

This gorgeous ginger beauty has been at the shelter since June 2019. Chonly was found by a kind person who saw me on the side of the road, limping, likely to have been hit by a car. X-rays, ultrasound scans and other tests revealed he had internal injuries and required immediate surgery.
Chonly is extremely lucky to have all his four limbs after the accident. Now, he's ready to be scooped up by an animal lover where he can spend the rest of his life just being his charming self.
