Izmir Metropolitan Municipality offers free sterilization services for stray cats and dogs to control the animal population in urban areas and ensure the healthy lives of street animals. These efforts, conducted within the framework of relevant legislation, aim to prevent uncontrolled population growth by controlling the reproduction of stray animals. In addition to fixed centers in Işıkkent, Pako, Seyrek, and Kültürpark, on-site service support is also provided through mobile sterilization vehicles.
