ABOUT US
how we work
Kathmandu Animal Treatment Centre of Nepal (KAT Nepal) was established in 2004 by Jan Salter as a charity to help to raise awareness concerning the inhumane treatment of Nepalese Street Dogs.
While our primary purpose is humane Animal Birth Control (ABC) to reduce the street dog population, we also provide education, awareness, and prevention of Rabies, medical treatment to those that are sick and injured, and education to the public and animal adoptions.
our services
WHAT WE DO TO PROTECT ANIMALS
Animal Birth Control
Our Animal Birth Control (ABC) program started in May 2004 and operates along the World Health Organization’s guidelines for the management of stray dog populations.
Rescue and Treatment
Community members often notify us of the illness or injury, and a vet and an animal care officer provide emergency care to the dogs on the scene.
Education and Awareness
One of KAT Nepal’s primary objectives is to educate the general population on how to better care for animals so that they can survive despite their restrictive circumstances.
Shelter and Adoption
When someone thinks of getting a pet, one would imagine them getting a one with a “breed.” A healthy, adorable pup or a kitten, which costs quite a sum.
DONATION
Why donate to KAT Centre Nepal?
Since we are a non-profit organization that relies on donations, each and every action we take requires funds and individual donations; without their support, we wouldn’t be able to run our welfare initiatives.
All your donations are used to ensure smooth operations of KAT Centre Nepal. That includes:
- ABC Program expenses not covered by local municipalities
- Operating costs of animal ambulance
- Medicines, anesthesia, surgical equipment, vaccines
- Daily expenses of KAT Centre shelter and rescue facility

Volunteer at KAT Centre Nepal
KAT Nepal depends greatly on volunteers who donate their time and talent to help the animals. Without volunteers, we could not accomplish or advance our mission. Improving the welfare of animals is a big job. But every little thing you do to help solve the problems of overpopulation, cruelty, neglect, and irresponsible pet ownership counts.
