Urgent cases receive priority in Kathmandu
Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre, known as KAT Centre, provides free veterinary care for street dogs. Its rescue team receives requests involving injuries, wounds, skin conditions and other illnesses, but limited space and resources mean serious cases take priority. The service is built around dogs whose communities may have no individual able to arrange or pay for treatment.
Some care can continue in the neighbourhood
Not every patient needs admission. For minor conditions, KAT describes treating dogs directly on the street and providing medicines with instructions to local people when follow-up doses are needed. This allows a familiar community member to contribute to recovery, while the centre keeps its more intensive facilities available for animals requiring a different level of attention.
Public education covers everyday life around dogs
KAT’s awareness work includes pet care, sterilisation, dog-bite avoidance, rabies prevention and food-waste disposal. Public displays, leaflets, media appearances and social channels help bring these topics into community life. The organisation also describes day clinics for vaccination, deworming and treatment, joining educational conversations with practical opportunities for people to seek care for animals.
School sessions use both English and Nepali
Presentations are adapted to the children’s age and delivered in simple English, with important points interpreted into Nepali by staff. Questions throughout the session make the activity interactive and help the team understand what students already know. Schools can invite speakers, while smaller groups and youth clubs can enquire about educational visits to the centre.
Recovery depends on ordinary daily supplies
Behind emergency treatment are continuing costs for ambulance fuel, animal food, cleaning products and medicine. KAT describes donations and dog sponsorship as ways to sustain this care, alongside adoption and volunteering. Its rescue-request and contact channels help distinguish an animal needing assessment from a school enquiry or an offer of support, directing each request to the relevant work.
