KAPSA

Kalkan Association for the Protection of Street Animals

We are a group of like-minded volunteers who care deeply about the health and well being of Kalkan’s street animals and wish to promote informed and compassionate action to improve the living conditions of all Kalkan’s animals.

Christmas Shopping & Gift Giving From Your Sofa

They say the biggest joy of gifts is the giving, not the receiving. Well, if that is the case, giving twice for each gift is off the scale! Snuggle up on your sofa and take a look at our shop for some lovely gift ideas this Christmas that will also be giving street animals the gift of food & healthcare. Aromatherapy Soaps, Pamper Packs, Limited Edition Jigsaws - all delivered to your front door

Kapsa in Action

KAPSA works within the boundaries and guidelines of the Turkish law. We try to increase local awareness of, and compassion for the plight of the street animals, and to inspire and engage more local people to take part in, or at least understand our work. To do this our approach must be both innovative and culturally sensitive.

Adoption

We have dozens of cats and dogs in Kalkan that need good homes. Despite the work we do in the community to educate people about responsible ownership, we still get many dogs and cats dumped in Kalkan each year. If you would like to give an animal a home, have a look at our adoption pages, maybe you can find the perfect dog or cat for your home.

Donate

We rely totally on donations to fund our work with Kalkan street animals, which is why we have a number of ways for you to donate as well as various sponsorship programs. Donations of flea, tic & worming treatments, collars & leads and other practical items are very welcome, as are items for stalls & raffles at our various fetes.
