Project Summary
A gift to this project is a life-changing gift for a cat or dog currently on the streets of Nepal. Any animal lover would be horrified at the harshness of the lives of street animals in Nepal. The goal of the project is to assist our local partners in continuing its animal welfare programmes. This project aims to end the culling of street animals and give thousands of cats and dogs happier and healthier lives within their communities.
Project Challenge
The cruel living situations of the stray animals in Nepal is truly a horrifying sight, and with no government assistance, the poorer communities are suffering from a number of issues caused by the high stray population numbers. These animals contract and spread disease, affecting health and wellbeing in the area and the lack of funding means most animals are not neutered or spayed meaning they reproduce freely. Our project aims to combat these issues and educate the community in the process
The situation for strays in Nepal is truly horrifying and would be enough to upset anyone. Not only are these animals suffering from disease and the local authority poisoning campaigns but they also have no veterinary help and have to scavenge for food and water. Government institutions in Nepal give no assistance to animal welfare and there are no other animal welfare charities working in our partner areas, so our project is the only opportunity for help for these dogs and cats.
Project Solution
By neutering, vaccinating and treating street animals we produce a healthy dog and cat population that locals can respect and care for properly. By working with local authorities repeating core programmes that tackle this issue through spading, protecting and providing emergency care for stray animals, we will enable the continuation of programmes that have helped thousands of animals. With your support, we aim to roll this project out to wider communities and villages
Impact
Our partners will benefit thousands of more dogs over its next year of operation. The local communities will be protected from rabies and from other zoonotic diseases. Attitudes to animals will continue to evolve and their treatment will improve. Visitors will enjoy its beautiful location and charming facilities without being haunted by scared, diseased and unhappy animals roaming its streets, together we can improve a community and benefit the lives of thousands of vulnerable animals

Updates from Nepal
By Olly | Program Rescue Team: November 2025
Dear Friend,
We’re so grateful to share an update on the last three months of life-saving work for the cats and dogs in Nepal—work made possible by your kindness and generosity.
This quarter, our rescue teams have been tirelessly responding to emergencies, providing urgent medical care, and working to find safe, loving homes for vulnerable animals living on the streets or in neglectful situations.
Some highlights:
We treated dozens of animals for injuries, infections, and illnesses—everything from wounds to parasitic infections. Many were brought in barely able to walk, but with proper care, they’re now gaining strength.
Several dogs and cats received vaccinations and sterilization surgeries to help control the street population humanely.
Our adoption program has continued to find new families for rescued animals, giving them a second chance at life.
Educational outreach has grown stronger, with volunteers working directly with communities to promote kindness and responsible care for animals.
Your support has been the backbone of all this. Because of you, animals who had nowhere else to turn are now healthy, safe, and loved.
Looking ahead, we’re planning to expand our outreach efforts, increase veterinary care access, and continue our mission to give every animal a future full of hope.
Thank you from all of us—and every tail wag and purr—from the animals and people who care for them.
Warmly,
The Hart Nepal Team
