- Bremen Animal Shelter has no capacity for visitors
Due to staff shortages and an unusually high number of animals requiring intensive care, the Bremen animal shelter** has temporarily suspended visitor traffic. "This measure is necessary to fully focus resources on the care and provision of animals and ensure that all animals receive the necessary care," the animal shelter announced. Animal adoptions are still possible by appointment.
Officially, there has been a ban on accepting pets for weeks, the shelter manager said. Nevertheless, more than 150 found animals were taken in during the summer holidays alone. In addition, there are numerous wild animals. As a result, the total number of animals to be cared for has risen to over 500. The animal shelter has "once again reached its capacity limits." Furthermore, staff is currently short due to the vacation season and illness-related absences.
The animal shelter in Bremen is grappling with a high number of animals needing intensive care, leading to its decision to accept new pets on a temporarily banned list. Despite the ban, the shelter has managed to take in over 150 found animals during the summer holidays, pushing the total number of animals to more than 500, making it difficult for the staff in Bremen to accommodate all the animals.
