Después de analizar los datos, se identificaron ciertas características sociodemográficas de los encuestados. La mayoría de los encuestados son urbanistas que están muy preocupados por el problema de los animales de compañía callejeros del país. Utilizando Stata 14, un modelo de valoración contingente mostró que el 63% de los participantes (250 personas) están dispuestos a contribuir económicamente. Los factores clave que influyen en esta disposición a apoyar económicamente incluyen la edad de los encuestados, el historial de donaciones y su consideración de adoptar un animal en el futuro. La cantidad media que los participantes están dispuestos a pagar es de 9,18 euros.
