About this project

M. Theiss from Kitmir Tierhilfe Demirtas e. V. is responsible for this project
The association Kitmir was founded in 2012 and helps stray animals in Turkey that have been forgotten by everyone else. 
We take care of castrations, look after feeding stations, provide medical care and offer a home to stray animals when they cannot survive on the streets on their own. 
Currently we are home to about 80 dogs, 15 cats and 9 ungulates (horses, donkeys, mules). 
In addition, at least 40 – 60 animals are cared for at fixed feeding stations every day.

Our main concern is the care and neutering of street animals. However, if we find abused, sick, disabled, half-starved animals or even puppies that need help, we take the animals home and nurse them back to health. As soon as the animals are healthy again, or the puppies are old enough (7 months), foster homes are sought. 
We offer old, chronically ill or behaviourally disturbed animals a place of grace for life. The animals are made ready to leave the country and come to Germany by flight sponsor or with their new owner. The animals that can survive on the streets on their own are neutered and released back into their regular places. There they continue to be cared for at feeding stations.

We always need support in form of food donations, donations in kind, medicines, foster homes and forever homes, food sponsors and, of course, financial support, because the castration costs alone eat up a lot of money and by the way of course the intensive medical care of their protégés and the incredibly high feed costs of about 100 animals.

We are happy about any support - every cent goes to the animals, because there are no administrative costs, as the support from third parties is purely voluntary. 

Thank you on behalf of all the animals who have found a safe place to live with us.
