The Marchig Animal Welfare Trust was established in 1989 by the late Madame Jeanne Marchig of Geneva, because of her deep concern for nature and
animals and in memory of her husband, the painter Giannino Marchig. The objects of the Trust are to protect animals and to promote and encourage practical work in preventing animal cruelty and the relief of animal suffering.
These objects are pursued by the Trust in two ways, Grants and Awards.
We are delighted to have received a grant of €9,000.00 in 2025 from the The Marchig Animal Welfare Trust to help towards the cost of the TNR program for homeless and stray cats in County Roscommon. Your contribution has made a remarkable difference in helping the vast number of cats that have been Spayed and neutered in the County.

JOIN THE FIGHT FOR COMMUNITY CATS – TRAP NEUTER RETURN (TNR)
We need your support to alleviate the suffering of homeless and feral cats. Many of these cats are unwell, injured, or simply abandoned, particularly during kitten season. Our Community T.N.R. Program provides spaying and neutering services for cats found in farms, alleys, and neighbourhoods. This initiative will help decrease the number of unwanted cats and enhance their overall health and well-being.
To find out more about our program and how you can participate, please call us at 087 050 5594, email us your details at spca@roscommonspca.ie include your phone number and the area you can help in. We also welcome your contact if you are aware of any cat colonies that require our help. Roscommon SPCA is currently facing an overwhelming number of requests for assistance with cats.
We have been receiving calls from across the County seeking support for our trap-neuter-return program, and the need for help is growing daily. While we can provide traps, funding, and guidance, we need more volunteers to carry out this essential work. This is why we are reaching out for your assistance. Have you considered how you might be able to help? We truly cannot manage this situation without your involvement.
This Project has been made possible with the support of the The Marchig Animal Welfare Trust. Together, we can break the cycle of overpopulation and neglect. Together, we can create a positive change for these cats and break the cycle of overpopulation and neglect. Join us in making a positive change—become a volunteer for TNR today!

THANK YOU!!
The Roscommon SPCA extends its heartfelt gratitude to Emily Miller, Sales & Marketing Manager at Petmania, along with Lauren and Dan from the Petmania Roscommon Town branch, for their substantial donation.
The generous contribution of dog food and three cosy beds plus a supply of SEVEN Optimal Oil will significantly aid in the nurturing and well-being of the three rescued collies Bubba, Brody and Boo. Such acts of kindness are invaluable to Roscommon SPCA, as we rely heavily on community support to continue our mission of caring for and protecting animals in need.
This gesture not only provides immediate comfort and sustenance to the dogs but also serves as an inspiring example of community involvement and corporate social responsibility.
The generosity of donors can make a significant difference in the lives of rescue animals like Bubba, Brody and Boo. With the support for their welfare and veterinary care, as well as the essential donations of food and beds, these three collies have a bright future ahead. I will post updated pictures of them soon. Thank you all so much.

SPAY & NEUTER
Spaying and neutering are the best ways to prevent unwanted litter of cats and dogs that often end up suffering and dying on the streets. Spaying and neutering are simple, low-cost surgeries that can save thousands of lives by reducing animal overpopulation. Spaying and neutering have a huge impact: One female cat and her offspring can produce up to 370,000 kittens in seven years! If you live in Roscommon and want to spay or neuter your cat at a discounted rate of €35.00, please call us at 087 050 5594. You may need to show proof of address.
This program is supported by Roscommon SPCA Donations and the Department of Agriculture Animal Welfare Grant 2024.
