Found an injured stray?
Read this before you do anything else. The right action depends on how serious the situation is.
PACS is a hospital, not a shelter.
Healthy puppies, kittens, or animals cannot be dropped off. We have no boarding capacity. Please use the guide below — we'll point you to the right help.
Emergency? Call a vet now.
Life-threatening injury, severe bleeding, hit by a vehicle, paralysed, or fitting? Call one of these private vets immediately — they handle emergencies outside our clinic hours.
Sick or injured but stable?
Stray with a wound, skin condition, or visible illness — but able to walk and move? Submit a non-urgent report and we'll arrange a visit during clinic hours.
Four things PACS does not do
Understanding this prevents confusion — and helps us protect the animals already in recovery.
We do not board healthy animals
PACS is a hospital. Every kennel space is needed for sick and injured animals receiving medical treatment. We cannot take in healthy strays, however friendly or well-intentioned the request.
We do not arrange overseas adoptions
PACS does not directly arrange or coordinate overseas adoptions. Where an exceptional long-term in-patient has recovered fully and has no prospect of surviving on the street, rehoming may occasionally occur — but this is not a service we offer.
We do not pick up animals ourselves
The PACS team is small and clinic-based. We do not run an ambulance or rescue service. If you find an injured stray, use the report form (above) or call the clinic during hours — we will advise you on next steps.
We do not handle wildlife
PACS treats dogs and cats only. For injured wildlife — birds, reptiles, monkeys — contact the Suratthani Wildlife Conservation Office or the local park authority.
