The Necessity of Helping Animals in Need

Save Pets of Ukraine is firmly dedicated to supporting animal rescue volunteers, shelters, and individual caretakers. By providing food, medical supplies, and funding, the organization helps those who protect homeless animals. This assistance enables volunteers to continue rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming pets in need. Here are two inspiring stories of volunteers who’ve made a significant difference with this support.

Help Stray Dogs and Cats Like Natalia Does

Natalia has been rescuing animals since 2011. Her journey began by saving a dog and later a cat with her newborn kittens. Witnessing the suffering of street animals, she started spaying strays, finding homes for them, and offering medical care. Over time, she created a small shelter, now home to 37 cats and two dogs, many of whom are elderly or unadoptable.

Financial challenges make it hard for Natalia to continue, but support from Save Pets of Ukraine provides much-needed relief. Food assistance enables her to focus on her mission to help stray dogs and cats and provide a safe haven for those in need.

Olena Velychko As a True Hero for Animals

Olena Velychko, an animal caretaker in Bykivnia, Kyiv region, took action during the war. She and her husband traveled to occupied areas like Bucha and Irpin to rescue and feed both people and animals. Since then, Olena has saved over 500 animals, reuniting pets with their owners, finding homes, and providing medical care.

With support from Save Pets of Ukraine, Olena has expanded her efforts, helping shelters and organizing events to promote adoption. Her work shows how vital it is to help pet shelters and ensure no animal is forgotten.

How You Can Help Stray Dogs and Cats

Natalia and Olena’s stories show the importance of helping homeless animals. Thousands of pets still need food, care, and shelter. You can join this mission by donating, volunteering, or spreading awareness. Help pet shelters as much as you can. Every effort counts in the fight to help stray dogs and cats and support shelters.

All together, due to uniting our joint efforts, we can create a brighter future for animals. Join Save Pets of Ukraine in their mission to help pet shelters and give abandoned pets a second chance.
