Here’s how you can help ❤️️
Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians are fleeing the nation, and many of them are refusing to go without their pets. Photos of humans and their animals trying perilous border crossings or huddling in bomb shelters and subway stations have shown up all over social media.
Poland, Romania, and Slovakia, according to recent reports, are enabling Ukrainians to carry their dogs across borders without veterinary papers. However, many animals in Ukraine still require food, medicine, and care. In the face of missile attacks, brave volunteers and shelter staff are remaining behind to care for the homeless animals.
In times of crisis, it’s difficult not to feel powerless, but there are methods to assist Ukrainian pets and their families, as well as shelter animals with nowhere else to go. Here are a few groups that need your aid to help Ukraine’s animals:
UAnimals is collecting funds to help animal shelters that have run out of food and supplies as a result of the Russian invasion. So far, they’ve helped an increasing number of Ukrainian shelters, including Give A Paw, Chance for Life, Pif, and Sirius. A Facebook post states, “Volunteers in shelters and rehabilitation facilities will never forsake their animals and will stand till the end.” Make a gift to UAnimals by clicking here.
This organization helps animals in shelters in Ukraine and advocates for the humane treatment of stray animals. They are actively gathering data on the state of the shelters and their immediate requirements. “All animals are alive, according to our statistics, and there is food for the next few days.” The most serious issue is that no delivery service can now supply the required food and consumables to the shelters. “And also in the lack of vehicle gasoline and the ability to withdraw cash or calculate a food card in some places,” they said in a recent Facebook post. You can support Happy Paw by making a contribution here.
This Ukrainian animal rescue and farm sanctuary is putting up a wartime food stockpile for its hundreds of animals, but they’re having trouble delivering supplies because they’re so near to the bombardment. You may donate to Shelter Ugolyok by PayPal (pawsofhelp@outlook.com), Venmo (pawsofhelp), Fundrazr, or Patreon.
Sirius has been caring for stray animals in Kyiv and its outskirts for over 20 years. They need all the help they can get as one of Ukraine’s largest animal sanctuaries. “We’ve arrived. We’re not going anywhere! We have to have faith in our nation and its fighters!” In a recent Instagram post, Sirius wrote. On their website, you may make a donation.
Since 2016, this Romanian non-profit has advocated for animals and is currently stationed at the border, ensuring that no family traveling from Ukraine has to leave their pet behind. This organization’s volunteers are striving to locate housing, shelter, and veterinary care for animals in need, regardless of species. You may donate to Casa lui Patrocle by clicking here.

Since 2009, Andrea Cisternino and his wife, Vlada Shalutko, have advocated for stray animals in Ukraine and manage an animal shelter outside of Kyiv. In the middle of military action, they continue to care for hundreds of homeless dogs, cats, and farm animals. You may help the animal rescue by donating here.
