My animal sponsorship for the animals of Gut Aiderbichl

Thanks to our supporters, over 9,000 animals have already been rescued. They can now live in safety at our animal sanctuaries – cared for, respected and with all the respect that every life deserves.

By adopting an animal, you become part of this great community of compassion. For as little as €10 a month, you can give an animal the gift of food, care and medical treatment – and at the same time help our animal rescuers to continue helping animals in need.

Your sponsorship for animals is more than just a donation:
It is a promise for life. A sign that compassion is stronger than indifference.

25 Years of Commitment

Michael Aufhauser founded Gut Aiderbichl to give animals in need a safe home. Since 2001, our team has been promoting compassion and responsibility through daily animal rescues and ongoing educational efforts.

    You can organise your sponsorship in a way that suits you:

    • A specific animal as a patent animal – you can access the individual animal profiles via the animal species pages.

    • Support an animal species in order to patronise specific animals.

    • Protect all animals at Gut Aiderbichl and ensure that every snout, paw and fur has a safe home (see below)

      .

    Whichever option you choose, you will be giving hope, love and a life in safety.

    Passing on compassion - as a gift or helping together as a company

    A sponsorship can also be given as a gift – as a special sign of compassion that brings joy for a long time.
    Or you can take on a company sponsorship and show your heart for animals in need together with your team.

    What does sponsorship at Gut Aiderbichl cost?

    With just 10 euros a month, you can make an active commitment to animal welfare and support our animal rescuers and carers. Your sponsorship helps to secure food, care and medical treatment and gives our animals a safe and secure life. You are free to choose your monthly contribution. The benefits and opportunities of your sponsorship vary depending on the type of sponsorship you choose. So every sponsor can find the right way to do good. You can find a detailed overview of the benefits of our sponsorships for animals at the top of this page.

    What is a symbolic sponsorship?

    With a symbolic sponsorship, you are taking out a sponsorship for a specific animal. However, your sponsorship contribution provides long-term support for all rescued animals at Gut Aiderbichl, because we make no distinction in the loving care we give our animals – regardless of whether they have an animal sponsor or not.

    Can I deduct my sponsorship contribution from my taxes?

    As you enjoy many benefits with your sponsorship of animals, such as free admission to our animal visitor centres, your sponsorship contribution is not tax-deductible. If you would like to support us with a donation, this is tax-deductible. You can support us with a one-off donation or as a patron with a regular donation.

    Can I give an animal sponsorship as a gift?

    Yes, you can also give an animal sponsorship as a gift. A gift sponsorship is a meaningful present for any occasion. You are giving an animal a second chance. With your sponsorship, you can support our almost 9,000 rescued animals and at the same time bring great joy to the recipient. You can find more information about gift sponsorship here.

    My details have changed. How can I let you know?

    We will be happy to change your data for you. Please send us an e-mail to patenschaften@gut-aiderbichl.com, or call us on our free hotline 0800 / 56 76 373.

    What happens if my sponsored animal dies?

    When one of our animals crosses the Rainbow Bridge, it is always a sad moment for Gut Aiderbichl and its supporters. As an Aiderbichler, you will be informed of the death of your sponsored animal in a separate letter. Unless you revoke this, your symbolic sponsorship will then be transferred to the entire group of animals. You can of course change this at any time. Please send us an e-mail to patenschaften@gut-aiderbichl.com, or call us on our free hotline 0800 / 56 76 373.

    Can I visit my sponsored animal even if it does not live at an animal visitor centre?

    Yes, all sponsors are allowed to visit their animals – regardless of whether they live on an animal visitor centre or not. Important: Please register in advance at patenschaften@gut-aiderbichl.com. This is the only way we can ensure that our team has enough time for your visit.

    Can I go for a walk with my sponsor dog?

    As a sponsor, you can of course visit your dog or go for a walk with your sponsored dog and our animal carers. To organise an appointment, please register in advance at patenschaften@gut-aiderbichl.com. Please note: If there are too many visitor enquiries or animal rescues are taking place, visits may have to be postponed – the welfare of the animals is our top priority
