The Royal Society for the Protection of Animals Veeweyde is one of the oldest animal protection societies in Belgium. Every day, we take in almost a thousand animals in our four reception centres in Brussels (Anderlecht), Tournai, Turnhout and Coutisse.
We take in an average of 50 dogs and cats a month, not forgetting rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets and hamsters, who are also victims of abandonment. We look after them and try to find them families to adopt them.
We take in, care for and shelter all abandoned and lost animals entrusted to us.
