The Museum of Science and Technology carries out the adoption of abandoned animals in cooperation with JKP Veterina Beograd. One of the partners, the company Lidl, has provided food, treats, and litter for the animals that will find their new owners that day at the Museum of Science and Technology.

World Stray Animals Day is celebrated on April 4 at the initiative of Dutch activists, with the aim of raising awareness about the problem of abandoned animals, which, left to fend for themselves on the streets, often become victims of abuse and violence and are susceptible to various dangerous diseases.

The intention of the Museum of Science and Technology is to contribute to alleviating these problems with partners during this three-day event, highlighting the importance of responsible behavior towards abandoned, as well as owned animals. If you are able, help, adopt a pet, gain a friend and unconditional love.

Don't Buy, Adopt!
