Support Our Cause!

We are a non-profit organization that is dedicated to improving the lives of animals in Uganda’s cities and rural communities. Through our implementing partners, Uganda Small Animal Practitioners Association of Uganda (USAPA) and Vetconekt Initiative Ltd we are making a difference in reducing the spread of rabies and controlling our roaming dog and cat populations. We no longer find dead animals in our communities because we have been able to stop mass poisoning campaigns. We are also educating the children to become responsible pet owners….when over 50% of our pet guardians at our clinics are kids, we know that animal welfare is a serious concern here in Uganda for the next generation. But we cannot do it alone. Please support our cause today!

Uniquely Paws Ltd is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization incorporated in the USA, State of New York,  EIN 88-3582358.

For Naya's Town (Kawempe)

Naya, at just 3 years old, contracted TVT, a contagious cancer spread by unneutered dogs. Despite receiving treatment, she tragically passed away due to complications from chemotherapy. Her loss was heartbreaking and preventable. If Naya had been spayed at a younger age, she would likely still be alive today.

For Naya’s Town (Kawempe), we are raising $1,200 to sponsor a free community clinic in her honor. The clinic will provide spay/neuter services and rabies vaccinations, helping prevent diseases like TVT and protecting dogs from unnecessary suffering. Your support ensures Naya’s story leads to protection, prevention, and lasting change.

World Veterinary Day 2026

This April, Uniquely Paws is marking World Vet Day with action.

We will sponsor two week-long free community clinics one in the official host district (to be announced by the Uganda Veterinary Association) and another in Kampala providing rabies vaccinations and spay/neuter services to families in need.

To make this possible, we are raising $9,500.

Your support helps prevent suffering, reduce overpopulation, and protect communities from rabies.

This World Vet Day, don’t just celebrate veterinary care.
Help deliver it.

Help Us Keep Our Promise to Seeta (Sterilize Mom and her 10 puppies)

When six newborn puppies were rescued in early February 2026, we promised more than rescue, we promised prevention. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve already raised the money to sterilize approximately 10 dogs in the community compound on 22nd Febraury , but we have to make sure that the momma dog does not have any more puppies, and her puppies do not have puppies.

So we’re not done yet.

We must return to spay the mother dog once she finishes nursing and sterilize the puppies when they are old enough, in approximately 3 to 4 months. Without this final step, the cycle continues. Your additional donation of $563 helps us fulfill our promise to the guardians and create lasting change.

Be a Pet Hero. Help us finish what we started.

Help Us Keep Our Promise to Seeta

When six newborn puppies were rescued in Seeta, we knew saving them was only the first step. The real solution was prevention.

After meeting with the guardians, we committed to sponsoring a free community clinic offering spay and neuter surgeries to prevent future litters, abandonment, and suffering.

Thanks to your generosity, we have already raised $563, enough to fund 10 spay and neuter surgeries in the neighborhood.

Doing the Math

Uncontrolled breeding leads to a staggering number of animals in need. A single unspayed female dog and her offspring can produce 12,200 puppies in five years, while an unspayed cat can produce over 11,000 kittens. Spay and neuter programs are vital to prevent unnecessary animal suffering.
