Pity! Dog Shelter in Thailand Usually Receives Food from Donors, Since COVID-19, This Is Happening
An animal shelter in Thailand that does not believe in placing their dogs and cats for adoption blames the drop in donations on the COVID-19 outbreak in the country.
According to CNA, Aunt Ju's Wild Dog shelter launched in 2013 has always relied on donors to feed more than 2,000 stray dogs and 300 cats that live under their care. These animals can only pass through the day by sleeping, fighting, or waiting to be fed.
Hundreds of dogs were crammed into humid rooms behind rusty fences. Some animals suffered injuries and were kept in small cages, where staff repaired their wounds with gauze.

However, there has been a big drop in donations recently and shelters have tried to attract animal lovers with photos of dogs crammed into their crowded facilities.
"Maybe ... because of the COVID-19 outbreak that made people contribute less," spokesman Yutima Preechasuchart said.
Every day, the shelter must provide more than 60 food bags that cost between 20,000-30,000 baht a day (RM2,600-RM4,000), but current donations only allow them to provide 30 bags a week. That is a significant reduction from about 420 bags per week to 30!
But Yutima Preechasuchart defended his residence policy not to allow their animals to be adopted.
"We can't be sure that (the owner) will love them as we do," he said.
A non-profit organization in Phuket said conditions at the animal shelter were "very crowded" and questioned how hygienic the place was with how many dogs were crammed into a closed room.
"If you don't believe in the adoption program ... then that will only (will increasingly) hoard," said Soi Dog Foundation's operations director Sam McElroy.
