The Korean Animal Protection Society located in Daegu is always in need of donations. They are currently housing 100+ cats and a comparable number of dogs. It is the only place of it's kind in Seoul. I will be going there this weekend and will happily take things for the animals with me. Please consider giving the following things: dog/cat food, cat litter, toys, dog collars/leashes, brushes, etc. Or help KAPS reduce the pet population by sponsoring a spay/neuter. A donation of 50,000 won will spay/neuter a cat or dog at the shelter. Their website is: www.koreananimals.org/
Please contact me for more information.

Please refrain from posting your favorite dog/cat meat recipes here. Not really appropriate, don't you think?

Hi Sommer, do you know how close KAPS is to being able to open up their new facility in Cheonan? They've been planning it for years, and it's supposed to include a new spay/neuter clinic. Getting that clinic up and running would be a huge step toward solving the homeless animal crisis.

It definetely would be. Sunnan, the Director is still fund raising to make it happen. Did you want to make a donation?

I guess I may donate again in a while (I have in the past but not recently) ... but I'm in Japan right now and really have to watch my money. I've also made a big financial commitment to a cat in the Philippines and I'm quite worried about that situation because I don't know how much his bills will eventually come to. For now, all I can do is wish you well ... but if you have an update about the spay/neuter clinic I'd be happy to hear it.

Thanks so much for the support. I will have more information about the clinic after I visit this weekend.
Best wishes,

Hi Sommer,

I hope my recent PM has clarified some things.

Thanks for caring about homeless animals, and please keep us updated.

Let's keep this thread on topic please. If you need a reminder, it was about giving donations to an animal shelter.

jjurabong,

The KAPS website has a donation page: http://www.koreananimals.org/donationform.htm so you can donate online. The mail-in donation info seems to be geared toward the US. Some of their free publications also have a bank account number on the back. I've lost that info, but you can contact the KAPS shelter directly for it. Their contact info is at http://www.koreananimals.org/help.htm#contact
Maybe the OP has another idea. Hope that helps!

Karen
