Caring for homeless dogs and cats in Ukraine
Stray Animal Care saving lives in Kyiv region 🇺🇦
With war raging in Ukraine, thousands of people and animals are suffering. The Kyiv area was particularly affected during the first stage of the invasion, and now with the Russian military retreating, the full impact of their occupation becomes visible. The entire region in the North of Kyiv is destroyed. Many human lives were lost; houses and vital infrastructure like streets and hospitals are destroyed, and vital for dogs and cats, veterinary clinics and shelters are also damaged or semi-abandoned.
Many pets have become homeless and many stray and shelter animals are terrified and injured. We thus decided to help here where it is so desperately needed – FOUR PAWS has set up a temporary veterinary care project in Belogorodka village, Kyiv Oblast, and is now serving the areas of Bucha, Irpin and surroundings. Thank you to the vets and volunteers in the Kyiv region, who are doing incredible work and show compassion for the roaming dogs and cats in this very difficult time 💛 💙. You can support our ongoing work in Ukraine here:
