The most loyal and loving cats and dogs sometimes wait for their owner for years

Animal rights activists have prepared advice for Ukrainians who care about the fate of animals, but who do not know how to start.

You can help animals in the most convenient way for yourself, writes Uanimals on Telegram.

  • Leave water for a street animal

Animals also suffer from the heat, and in the conditions of war it is extremely difficult to get water for four-legged animals. They can die from dehydration.

Animal protectionists advise to leave a container with water for animals in the shade and to replenish liquid reserves twice a day.

  • Feed a homeless animal

In addition to water, four-legged can be left with food.

  • Help a local shelter

The number of cats and dogs in such institutions is constantly increasing, and sometimes the workers simply do not have enough hands to clean the enclosures, feed the wards and walk the animals. You can offer shelters your help.

  • Take a pet from the shelter

"Every four-legged dreams of a family. The most loyal and loving cats and dogs sometimes wait for their owner for years and end up in shelters. Perhaps there is a place in your home and heart for a new four-legged family member," animal rights activists write.

  • Support animal rights activists

The UAnimals organization saves animals only thanks to financial support. They send food, rebuild war-torn shelters, and evacuate animals from occupied territories and war zones.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, Ukrainians can get free token in ATB for pets.
