A long-established organisation with several care roles
Tierschutz Austria is a project of the Wiener Tierschutzverein, whose history dates to 1846. Its animal shelter in Vösendorf supports adoption alongside programmes for dogs waiting a long time for homes, wildlife rehabilitation and sanctuary places for farm animals. Another part of its work addresses what happens when a pet’s existing carer can no longer continue.
Planning for illness or a change in care
GARANTIERT GEBORGEN is the organisation’s pet-care planning programme. It responds to situations such as illness, dependency or the death of an owner when family or friends cannot take over. The programme describes care at the shelter or placement in a suitable new home, with arrangements discussed in advance rather than left entirely to a sudden crisis.
Keeping familiar relationships and needs in view
A move can be especially difficult for an older animal. The programme describes accommodation adapted for participating pets and attention to their individual needs, including medical care. Animals accustomed to living together over many years are kept together. These provisions aim to preserve important parts of their previous life while the team considers the most suitable ongoing arrangement.
A care passport records everyday preferences
The Tierversorgungspass, or pet-care passport, contains more than basic identification. It records likes and dislikes that can help staff understand an animal’s reactions in an unfamiliar environment. Information from the person who knows the pet gives carers a practical starting point during the observation period, connecting the animal’s earlier routine with its new surroundings.
Discuss the programme before making arrangements
Interested owners speak with the programme contact about the process and their questions before deciding whether to enter a contract. Those individual terms define participation. Adoption through the wider shelter is a separate route and requires an arranged meeting; casual visits simply to view animals are not available. Sponsorship and donations also support animals already receiving care at Vösendorf. Official programme information · AnimalProtech map.
