Celia Hammond Animal Trust ~ Our
Aims and Objectives
To provide care and refuge for cats and
kittens both feral and domestic and for those animals which on the basis of age,
temperament or appearance would not normally be taken in
elsewhere
To promote the welfare of animals through example and
education. |
To humanely reduce the population of dogs and cats,
both pedigree and mongrel in the U.K by neutering as opposed to the current
situation where hundreds of thousands of healthy but unwanted or stray animals
are being destroyed simply because there are not enough homes to go
around
To provide low cost neuter/vaccination clinics for animals
belonging to people on benefit or those unable to afford private veterinary
fees.
To provide low cost treatment in our clinics for sick/injured
animals whose owners do not qualify for help from the major charities but who
cannot afford private veterinary fees.
To operate a rescue service for animals, both domestic and
feral, in emergency situations through calls from the public, local authorities
and the police.
To provide long and short-term sanctuary accommodation and
rehoming facilities for rescued animals.
To investigate complaints of cruelty and neglect and to take
appropriate action.
The Trust has a strict non-destruction
policy unless animals are suffering with a terminal illness or are hopelessly
injured and beyond any veterinary help
