Four veterinary centers in Taipei have received licensing to operate “nursing homes” for old pet cats and dogs, the Liberty Times reports. In accordance with regulations announced by the Taipei City Animal Protection Office in September, these animal hospices will provide care for old and sick animals whose owners are no longer able to care for them. The city council hopes that the nursing home will be able to ease the burden of animal shelters as a “no-kill” policy at animal shelters comes into effect in January.
