We are dedicated to improving the lives of all animals, relieving pain, suffering and creating new lives for rescued cats and dogs.
About
Lanta Animal Welfare was founded by Junie Kovacs in 2005. Her mission was to end the suffering of the hundreds of homeless, abused and injured animals on Koh Lanta. To date, we have sterilized and treated over 85,000 animals and with your support we continue to grow helping more and more animals each year. We believe sterilization is the only long term humane way to end the homeless animal crisis. Lanta Animal Welfare is a recognized Foundation in Thailand and a US registered charity.

"By sterilizing one male and one female cat, more than 2 million unwanted births can be prevented in just 8 years." We believe sterilization is the only long term humane way to end the homeless animal crisis.
We are always striving to improve the lives of animals both at the centre and the surrounding areas.
A lack of education is responsible for many cases of abuse and the over population. See how we are trying to put things right.
