Krasnodar Animal Sanctuary Imposes Nightly Restrictions
In the heart of Krasnodar, a surprising incident has unfolded at the city's municipal dog shelter, located on Sculptor Kolomiytseva Street, 30 in the village of Berezovoe. Despite the shelter operating under the CATCH system, a pet dog was mistakenly rehomed as a stray to its own owner.
The Krasnodar municipal dog shelter, which began operations in "pilot mode" on April 17, 2025, after construction was completed in October 2023, welcomes visitors and volunteers during official visiting hours on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 13:00 to 15:00. However, a recent mistake has raised concerns about the rehoming process.
Typical mistakes in municipal dog shelter rehoming processes can include poor screening of adopters, administrative errors, lack of follow-up, and communication issues. While the exact nature of the "rehoming mistake" at the Krasnodar shelter remains unclear, it is believed that one or more of these factors may have played a role.
The shelter follows the CATCH system, a method currently used in the Krasnodar region, where animals are kept for 26 days. During this period, they are vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and registered in a special registry. If no owners are found after 26 days, the animals are returned to their previous environment.
However, in this case, the pet dog was mistakenly rehomed as a stray, which suggests a breakdown in the rehoming process. Without specific details or reports from Krasnodar's municipal dog shelter, a precise description of the incident cannot be provided.
It is worth noting that Krasnodar boasts the highest number of dog-friendly cafes and restaurants in the region, as reported by Yuga.ru, demonstrating the city's commitment to animal welfare.
At the time of writing, there is no information available on the current status of the pet dog or any attempts to reunite it with its owner. The article does not mention any consequences for the shelter or the individuals involved in the incident, nor does it provide information on any corrective actions taken.
As the situation develops, updates will be shared to ensure transparency and accountability in the rehoming process at the Krasnodar municipal dog shelter.
