Feed and Treat Rescued Animals in Rural Romania

We have been blessed in the last 2 months to receive 5.5 tons of food, which will be enough for at least 5 months, but although the food was free, we still had to pay for part of the transport, which totaled to 1800 Euros. It is true that this is as much as the cost for one month of food is, but it still put pressure on us to be able to pay for it.

On the medical front, the last few months have been very hard due to very hard cases: 

- Betty's fight with cancer, that required 2 surgeries, treatments. This was a fight that she eventually lost 

- Scooby with his broken spine and umerus. He needed 2 surgeries and now he needs physiotherapy to learn how to walk

- Bonny was found with only parts of her hind legs. One had to be amputated and for one she received an implant, but she still needs physiotherapy for the skin to heal properly

- Spicy was hit by a car and also had a broken spine. He is recovering nicely after surgery and we hope he will soon find a new home.

- Lili had troubles with both her back legs and needed surgeries for both.

These are just to most severe cases, without the mention of the small things that trigger visits to the vets.

Although due to lack of space and resources, we no longer take in puppies and kittens found by others, there are the ones that cross our path for which we cannot say no and also the ones that are in such a terrible condition that we cannot leave them where they are.

In the last 3 weeks, we had to take 6 dogs and 10 cats. 1 of the dogs was with our vet for a few months because of a Sticker tumour, her treatment is done and she was spayed, but after spending so much time under treatment, we couldn't leave her back on the streets. 2 other dogs were taken from the street for spaying by our volunteers, from areas where they weren't treated well, and they were also kept by them, in foster for now. 2 kittens were found by members of our non profit.

2 weeks ago, hell broke loose, with an old lady that was found unconscious after 2 days, that was taking care of 3 dogs and 8 cats. The house was in a terrible condition, with pee and poop everywhere, and a horrible smell. The lady never recovered, so the animals are now with us. The dogs were full of parasites and lacked fur, one was even blind. The cats don't know how to use the litter box, they are very skinny and full of parasites, one of them is also partially blind and one has some trouble walking.

The last cat was hit by a car, and she reached us right before we were contacted about the old lady.

So in just 2 weeks, the number of animals that we need to feed increased considerably.

This is why we need your help and your donations!
