The gathering was announced by the animal welfare community “Friends Nearby”. Participants are invited to wear costumes and help the animals find homes.

Separately, the Municipal Enterprise “Animal Protection Center” is conducting an anonymous survey on pet-keeping rules in Mykolaiv. The enterprise is collecting opinions from both pet owners and residents who do not have pets.

The survey addresses the following issues:

• the availability of places where dogs can be walked;
• incidents involving aggression by pet dogs;
• burial of animals in parks, squares, and residential areas;
• mandatory registration and microchipping of pet dogs and cats.

During the first half of 2026, the municipal enterprise captured 1,211 stray animals. Of these:

• 963 have already been spayed or neutered;
• 967 were vaccinated against rabies;
• new owners were found for 84.
