Crisis in Ukraine: Evacuate Pets Out of a War-Zone

URGENT: Deadly New Wave of Attacks is Devastating Ukraine

August 2024: Russia just launched a massive attack on over half of Ukraine. Abandoned animals are cowering in rubble as missiles continue to rain down. Critical infrastructures are being targeted and knocking out power and water to civilians.

Brave volunteers continue to risk their lives to save innocent animals from the front lines. Evacuated animals are arriving daily at Patron Pet Center in Kyiv, where they receive medical attention, and a safe place to rest.

The center is stretched to capacity, caring for 200 animals. The most recent attack left them without power, leaving them to do this critical work in the dark. 

They need our help now. 

GreaterGood is providing medical care and support for these pets so they can find safety at the Patron Pet Center. Give now and help fund these efforts.

May 2024: Military members are currently evacuating animals from the Kherson, Sumy, and Kharkov regions of Ukraine, as the situation there is getting worse, and the frontline is moving. 

Dozens of pets have been evacuated from across the regions and every day, heroic rescuers are risking their lives to bring more animals to safety. Evacuated animals are being brought to the Patron Pet Center in Kyiv, where they receive medical attention, care, and are eventually adopted out.

But there are countless more animals who need our help.

We were just informed that 50 new pets are arriving at the center today and another 30 are expected tomorrow. 

All animals are domestic. Most of them were abandoned by the owners when they evacuated, but some were surrendered by the owners because they decided to stay. Evacuations will continue to take place throughout the week.

May 2024: Ukraine military members risk their lives to save abandoned pets near the frontlines. These dogs and cats are finally safe thanks to these brave individuals. Your donations help care for the rescued animals.

April 2024: Richard- This 10-year-old cat lived alone for two years after his owners died shortly after the war in Ukraine began. Richard was rescued and is thriving thanks to your support. See how happy he is with his new family below. 

Feb 2024: Warm wool blankets were brought to Inna, the owner of Shelter in Tomakovka, where there are more than 100 dogs and cats that were taken from the front-line territories of the Zaporozhye region. The dogs and cats quickly curled up on their new blankets donated thanks to your support.
