Feed and Treat Rescued Animals in Rural Romania

Whenever a new person visits Dumbrava, they enter the yard with a heavy heart, thinking that Dumbrava is just another shelter where they will see dogs and cats, sad, in their cage. And they get a surprise, they see happy animals, some sociable, some not as much, but all playing, interacting with us or each other, being glad to see people (even the ones that don't get close), which is what we want. Still, it also makes them less "adoptable" because they are not as sad as the ones from public shelters.

We have just a few animals on treatment right now: 

- Felix, a cat that had a surgery to remove his teeth and needs treatment, + he needs to eat wet food

- Didi, a kitten that has a fungal infection

- Mara, a dog whose eye does not produce tears, so we need to add fake ones every day

- Gipsy, a dog with arthritis, needs daily treatment for mobility and pain

- Duke, one of our puppies that had hepatitis, needs liver protection supplements.

Thank you all for your support and donations!

Although we have constant spaying campaigns and the authorities from Romania have started to do spaying campaigns as well, it is kitten and puppy season. We have 4 puppies, 2 were abandoned when they were only 4 days old, and the other 2, although older, suffer from malnutrition, meaning they need quality food and supplements to put them back on their feet.

We also have 8 new kittens, 5 brothers found in a train station and 3 sisters whose mother died. They are all approximately 3-4 weeks old, so they still need milk and wet food.

On top of all this, we have the constant expenses with food, vaccines, and deworming.
