In the charity's own words
StrayKind, formerly known as Animal Care Trust (ACT), transforms the lives of suffering stray and wild animals in Taiwan, via a 24-hour rescue service providing emergency veterinary attention. Wildlife is released when healthy, if possible. All other animals are rehomed or given lifelong sanctuary at our sites. Most of our rescues involve dogs and other animals maimed by traps and snares.
