Cats, horses, a wolf, and 13,000 other animals we were able to help — UAnimals’ April Report

img

In April, through the joint efforts of our team, volunteers, and donors, we were able to help approximately 13,000 animals. We evacuated them from hotspots, purchased medication, provided food to shelters and military personnel caring for animals on the front lines, and fought against cruelty through legal channels.

All the work we report on in our monthly reports is only possible thanks to your support. Every hryvnia goes toward full bowls of food, medicine, evacuations, spay/neuter surgeries, and other forms of aid. If you also want to support animal rescue—make a donation to the fundraising campaign that resonates with you the most, or sign up for a monthly subscription to the Animal Rescuers Club to help regularly with whatever amount you can and not worry about missing an urgent fundraiser.

Here are the main things we’ve managed to accomplish together over the past month:

Evacuation

In April, among those evacuated from the front lines were chickens, pigs, goats, a rabbit, and a wolf. In total, 211 animals were evacuated from dangerous zones over the month. 77 of them were evacuated by volunteers at our request.

Treatment and Sterilization

We paid for treatment and provided medications for 3,222 animals — hospital care, surgeries, vaccinations, and parasite treatments. This cost over 1.6 million hryvnias. Another 821 animals were sterilized.

Other assistance

Alongside rescue efforts in frontline regions, daily, often unnoticed, but critically important work continued:

  • 5,778 kilograms of food were sent to shelters and military personnel caring for animals in the combat zone;
  • 1,120 animals received better conditions thanks to support for shelter reconstruction;
  • 320 volunteers distributed food in frontline areas and cleaned up shelters and nature reserves across Ukraine. By the way, during the Spring Cleanup, they managed to collect over 8.5 tons of various debris.

This is just a small part of what we managed to accomplish in a month, and behind each of these 13,000 animals is someone’s donation, someone’s trip, or someone’s decision not to turn a blind eye.

A full breakdown of expenses, detailed rescue stories, and the names of the businesses that supported us in April can be found in our April report.
