About the shelter

On April 12, 2014, the society “Otrā Māja Dzīvniekiem” founded the animal shelter “OTRĀ MĀJA” (SECOND HOME), which is located in the Augshdaugavas region, Demenes parish, near the village of Jaņuciems. This shelter does not have permanent funding from the municipality or the state and is therefore an independent organization. Everything in the shelter is based on the hard work of volunteers and the support of people who, like us, want to change the fate of animals in Latgale county and throughout Latvia. In the shelter OTRĀ MĀJA animals that have even a little hope to survive are never euthanized. We are fighting for the life of every poor fellow to the last. Since our shelter is an independent organization, we have our own advantages. Thus, the shelter accepts and keeps as many animals as it is able to support and provide the necessary care. Our pets receive the best care. Anyone can verify this. And the more our pets are adapted to new families, the more chances other unfortunate people get the best care and care in our shelter. But, as in everything where there are advantages, there is also a downside to such privileges. The shelter exists only thanks to donations and support from various foundations, to which we regularly turn for help. Nobody pays us for the maintenance of animals on a regular basis. Therefore, we have to work hard every day to provide tomorrow for our animals.
