The Interconnected Struggle for Liberation

We believe that justice and compassion should extend to all beings. Our mission goes beyond animal rescue, it’s rooted in the belief that all forms of oppression are interconnected. This philosophy, known as intersectionality, guides the aspects of our work. To stand against oppression in any form, we must stand against it in every form – here in Ukraine, or anywhere around the world.

Acting in Solidarity

In the last two years, our missions have brought us face-to-face with the harrowing effects of violence and injustice inflicted on individuals – both human and non-human. We’ve seen people and animals lose their loved ones, their homes, their sense of security. The rescue work often means carrying this pain and sorrow with you. More than once we’ve mourned the loss of friends who perished during frontline evacuations. Despite these challenges, our resolve is stronger than ever. We are committed to playing our part in this collective struggle, continuing to offer support and hope to those affected by these tragedies.

Animals as Individuals

Animal rescue isn’t just about removing animals from immediate harm. More than that, it’s a process and it is about recognizing each animal as an individual with inherent rights to their life, physical health, emotional well-being and needs related to them. For us rescue means addressing both – the physical and emotional scars of the war because we acknowledge that animals, much like humans, can suffer from trauma and PTSD.

Our work in Ukraine

Animal evacuation

We carry out evacuation missions for animals in imminent danger. We also help people evacuate from frontline regions together with their animals, so noone is left behind. While our expertise and resources are tailored to meet the unique needs of cats, we currently lack the logistics to accommodate and care for other species within our operations.

Cat rehabilitation

As our organization’s name suggests, cat rehabilitation is at the heart of our mission. We are currently raising funds to purchase land in the village of Artemivka, near Kyiv. On this land, we will build a dedicated rehabilitation center for war-affected cats suffering from PTSD and anxiety disorders. Our center will provide space for over 100 cats, offering them the care and support they need to heal and recover.

Humanitarian aid

During our animal rescue missions, we often encounter civilians who have been left out of logistics and support networks. Frequently, this crucial work falls to self-organized teams of volunteers. While we understand the limitations of our specialization in animal rescue, we cannot ignore the personal tragedies of these people. Therefore, we are committed to providing help to them as well, ensuring that no one is left to face this tragedy alone.
