WANT TO KNOW WHY WE’RE TRYING TO PROTECT THE ANIMAL SHELTER IN DONETSK, UKRAINE?

The New York Times Reports today:

�It�s not a cease-fire. It�s full-on fighting,� a rebel fighter said. Tanks were out on the streets midafternoon, and pro-Russian rebel fighters raced reinforcements along the main boulevard in civilian cars toward their positions on the approaches to the airport.

In a residential area just off the main boulevard, hospital workers collected bodies from the sidewalks and homes hit hours earlier. They took at least six, most of them of older adults who appeared to have been walking home from the market, and a rebel policeman who had been trying to guide people to cover when he was hit…..

FOOD & SHELTER FOR THE ANIMALS HERE:

So many people are fleeing the city but the animal shelter can not possibly relocate.

“It is almost unreal to transport 800 dogs who are currently retained in the aviaries which are comfortable,” shelter caregiver Vita explains. “We provide free veterinary aid to homeless dogs and cats. Hence, we have seriously ill animals whose transportation is impossible.”

The women who have stayed behind to care for the shelter’s animals have a form of courage most couldn’t begin to understand. It is our responsibility to see them through the coming months and to perhaps even provide the xray machine and ultrasound they are begging for in order to help diagnose and treat animals with severe internal injuries.

We have told them over and over again, “You are not alone.”

Animal Rescue Chase

The Great Animal Rescue Chase celebrates the art of animal rescue with a worldwide race to rescue one million. It’s a free event, open to all, and is perhaps the only global animal rescue event aimed at helping any animal in distress, anywhere in the world. Our ambition is to create a culture of enthusiasm and pride in animal activism. We believe in teaching, by example, that there is a hero in each of us just waiting to be unleashed. Empowered animal lovers can not only save lives, but build the momentum for powerful animal welfare reform.
