DISEÑO PROTOTIPO DE UN CENTRO DE ACOGIDA DE PERROS Y GATOS DE TIPO TEMPORAL REPLICABLE

Abstract

In Guayaquil the presence of stray animals is growing, they represent a danger to both the city and its inhabitants, and other animals. Street wildlife does cause traffic accidents, health risks and spread of diseases, also they cause unsanitary conditions on sidewalks and streets. In the city there are no municipal shelters for stray animals, and foundations such as Rescate Animal lack the resources to build one, this paper proposes the design of a shelter to house these stray animals. To achieve the aforementioned objective this paper proposes the design of an animal shelter to house homeless dogs and cats, in order to provide medical care, food, basic supplies prior to its adoption. By designing this animal shelter basic needs that animals require would be solved, other risks such as health and safety caused by animals would be reduced.
