Mission in Action - Combat the root cause of stray cat and dogs
Desexing.Medical.Food
Animal Friends is a registered non-profit organization in Hong Kong, driven by volunteers who believe that the only way to truly improve the welfare of stray animals is to address the root of the problem. We are dedicated to providing free sterilization services for cats and dogs living in remote communities and villages, while also educating pet owners on the importance of this procedure.
Since our establishment in 2010, and thanks to the individuals that support and donate to Animal Friends, we have been able to desex over 18,800 animals, 75% of which were females. This means we have successfully prevented the birth of thousands of unwanted litters, reducing the heartbreaking tragedies of abandoned and euthanized innocent lives.
But Animal Friends does not stop there. We are also committed to educating pet owners on proper animal care, such as providing clean water and food, as well as general care knowledge. This ensures that these beloved companions receive the respect and treatment they deserve, alleviating their suffering. By changing people's mindsets and behaviors from the ground up, we can make a real difference in the lives of animals.
We urge you to join us in our mission to reduce animal abandonment and ensure that every life is cared for and respected. Even the smallest contribution from you can bring hope to these vulnerable creatures. Together, we can make this world a better place for all.

Why does Animal Friends offer Free Desexing?
The cost of neutering ranges from $1,000 to $3,000, which not everyone can afford. Stray cats and dogs in villages and communities are often numerous, and not neutering them will only worsen the problem, leading to neglect, hunger, accidents, and even death.
Encouraging feeders to bring their cats and dogs to clinics for free neutering can improve animal health and prevent thousands of unwanted births.
If you have stray cats and dogs, please take the extra step to neuter them. Spread the message and donate to Animal Friends if you support neutering. Thank you!"
Semi-stray Cats and Dogs
in Hong Kong
Despite being a small international city, Hong Kong has many villages and communities in the northwest New Territories where most cats and dogs are not pets and become stray animals due to lack of protection and care.
-
In the villages and communities of the New Territories, merchants and villagers keep cats and dogs to control rodents and guard their homes, allowing them to roam freely, a practice known as 'free-roaming.'
-
However, most of these animals receive inadequate care, eating leftovers and drinking from mossy water dishes. They scavenge for food in garbage dumps, and if tied up or trapped, they may go hungry for life.
-
Due to a lack of awareness or financial constraints, owners do not neuter their animals, leading to continuous breeding and the suffering of innocent lives. These animals face hunger, illness, injury, abandonment, and death, trapped in a cycle of tragedy.
-
Some are given away to unsuitable owners, perpetuating the cycle and subjecting more lives to misfortune.
<< The Endless Cycle of Dog Breeding >>
These are all familiar stories, have you encountered them?
Female dogs can give birth at 6 months old, twice a year, with 6-10 puppies each time.
To reduce the number of stray animals, please have your dogs neutered."
Benefits of desexing
-
Cats and dogs can be neutered at around 5 months old. Neutering is the most effective and humane way to control animal populations, and it also has many benefits for animal health and the community.
-
Desexing reduces anxiety and reproductive disease in female pets and makes them physically stronger. Neutered male pets are more focused on guarding their homes and less likely to roam or fight, reducing injuries and community disturbances.

ABOUT ME
animal friends community animal desexing monthly figure album
This photo album chronicles our years-long efforts to desex the cats and dogs in rural areas. Since 2013, we have meticulously recorded the number of animals we successfully desexed each month, and lovingly captured their faces in these pages.
As you flip through this album, you will see the living conditions and health status of these animals. Some are female dogs in a constant cycle of breeding, while others are innocent puppies. We may not be able to ensure they are healthy and well-fed for life, but we can at least desex them to stop the endless cycle of reproduction. After desexing, their health and living situation often improve. Each photo represents the result of our dedicated care and protection.
We hope you will take the time to browse through this album and feel the impact of our work. Please consider supporting our efforts to provide care and compassion for these helpless animal friends. Together, we can make a difference in their lives.
Animal Friends Medical Fund
When arranging for the neutering of cats and dogs, we often encounter animals that are seriously injured or ill, some of which are even in danger of losing their lives. Therefore, in addition to neutering and providing food, our medical expenses are also very high. We hope that everyone can donate and help these animals through difficult times
ANimal Friends Foodbank
We fundraise for food every month to provide for 600 stray animals in shelters and those still wandering the streets, improving their living conditions and ensuring they have enough to eat. We also provide food to low-income/elderly pet owners, hoping to alleviate the suffering of their cats and dogs from hunger.
