Before the war started, we were trying to coordinate with two amazing ladiesโAmanda and her daughter Emmaโto come to Lebanon and help take some of our rescued cats to safety. The war delayed the plan, but last week, they made it happen.
Amanda traveled to Canada and took with her Freddy, a war victim who became blind from the sharpness of the explosions. He was just three weeks old when we found him. Sadly, his sister didnโt survive. Freddy had to have both eyes removed, and for a while, his health was very critical. Today, thanks to @thepussiepatrol , a wonderful association we deeply love, Freddy is now in a warm foster home, snuggling with his foster mom and enjoying his new life.
Emma returned to Chicago and took three more cats from our sanctuary: Steve, Jerry, and Sodeco. This was made possible thanks to @figandfriendspetrescue , who stepped up during this difficult time and agreed to take them in if we could find travel partners. Emma volunteered to help, and now these three are safe and sound in their new homes.
We want to thank @elise_michele for coordinating everything, and for taking in our cats, and @thepussiepatrol for giving Freddie a new chance. All four cats are doing well.
After these long and stressful journeys, they quickly adapted. They are sleeping peacefully in beds, eating well, using their litter boxes, and cuddling with their foster families.
Unfortunately, we couldnโt raise donations for their travel. We know not everyone understands or sympathizes with these cases, but if you would like to help us, please consider sponsoring part of a ticket.
โข One ticket costs $350
โข One crate costs $80
โข Paperwork costs $40
Any donation would mean the world to us.
Thank you again for trusting us and for giving these cats a new beginning.
