SPAZ is the Society for the Protection of Stray Animals and is working since 1987 in the southern suburbs of Athens

SPAZ has no office, no clinic, nor any animal shelter. SPAZ members work on the street, neutering cats and dogs and providing medical care in their own homes. SPAZ also produces educational brochures, lobbies and campaigns for animal rights, and networks with animal welfare groups all over the country.
