    We are so happy because the food for our kitties in Kryvyi Rih has arrived! 😍😻 Thanks to the support of the UFA / United for Animals foundation, and specifically the immense work of its leaders Yuliya Firka and Ira Azizian, our volunteers and caregivers of homeless animals will soon receive delicious, high-quality food for their furry friends! ❤️ To the volunteers who submitted requests that meet the foundation's requirements for sterilization, adoption, and decent animal welfare — we will be eagerly waiting for you to collect your food! With respect and gratitude to everyone involved

      "Animal SOS Odessa" NGO

      Spring has arrived, and with it — hope. This winter was extremely difficult for everyone — people and animals alike. But most of all, the war, the cold, the shelling, and constant stress took a toll on the elderly. From our list of foster owners, five people passed away, and two more are seriously ill... That is why the food that arrived in Odesa from our friends and partners at UFA / United for Animals and Greater Good Charities, under the project to help grandmothers with cats, is incredible support and a true blessing. 🤲👍

          Druzhkivka, Donetsk region, Ukraine! We are immensely grateful to our true friends at UFA / United for Animals for their help with pet food in Druzhkivka! 🙏❤️ THANK YOU, dear friends, for being by our side throughout almost the entire war, standing shoulder to shoulder!! 🙏❤️ Every day the situation in the city worsens, the enemy is very close, and people are leaving. Many animals are being abandoned, but some stay to rescue, feed, or evacuate dozens of them! To those who remain in the city despite the shelling for the sake of their pets, this support is vital and means the world to us!! 🙏❤️
