Project Title:

This project proposal is entitled “Stray animals and Management” which helps

the Brgy. Trinidad to lessen the stray animals scatterd along the puroks. Also this

Local Government Unit of Calbayog (LGU) and with the help of the Brgy. Trinidad

Residents.

III. Project Rationale

This project proposal aims to address the issue of stray animals' welfare and

management in our baranggay. Stray animals, including dogs, cats, and other

domesticated animals, often suffer from neglect, hunger, and disease, leading to

public health concerns and animal welfare issues. The proposed project seeks to

implement a comprehensive and sustainable approach to reduce the stray animal

population, improve their well-being, and promote responsible pet ownership.

IV. Project`s Objectives :

b. Improve the health and well-being of stray animals through vaccination and

medical treatment.

c. Implement effective stray animal management programs.

d. Educate the public on responsible pet ownership and the importance of animal

welfare.

e. Foster partnerships with local stakeholders, including government agencies,

NGOs, and communities.

V. Proposed Activities

a. Stray Animal Population Control:

i. Conduct spaying and neutering campaigns targeting stray animals in

collaboration with veterinary clinics, NGOs, and volunteers.

sterilization procedures.

iii. Develop a systematic identification and tracking system for sterilized animals

to monitor the impact of the program.

b. Health and Well-being:

i. Organize regular vaccination and medical treatment camps in collaboration

with veterinary professionals.

ii. Set up mobile clinics to provide basic healthcare services to stray animals in

different areas of the city/region.

iii. Implement a trap-neuter-return (TNR) program for feral cat colonies to prevent

overpopulation.

c. Stray Animal Management:

i. Develop a comprehensive database of stray animals, including their location,

behavior, and health status, to aid in effective management strategies.

ii. Implement a humane stray animal control program that focuses on relocation

and rehabilitation rather than euthanasia.

 iii. Collaborate with local authorities to establish designated feeding stations and

manage feeding schedules to reduce stray animals' dependency on garbage

and public spaces.

d. Public Education and Awareness:

i. Conduct awareness campaigns targeting schools, colleges, and community

centers to educate the public on responsible pet ownership, animal welfare,

and the consequences of abandoning pets.

ii. Organize workshops and training sessions for veterinary students, local

volunteers, and animal caregivers to enhance their skills and knowledge in

stray animal care.

e. Partnerships and Collaboration:

i. Establish partnerships with local government agencies, NGOs, and animal

welfare organizations to pool resources, share expertise, and promote a

coordinated approach to stray animal management.

actively participate in stray animal rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption

programs.
