The head of the UAnimals communications department, Lyudmila Smolyar, thanked Yaroslav for her willingness to speak about animal protection and draw the attention of a large audience to this issue, as well as her good deed, "thanks to which thousands of animals will receive medicine, food, and their own warm place to sleep."
"We dream that one day helping animals will become a common and everyday thing in Ukrainian society, and it is such powerful voices as the voice of Yaroslava Maguchykh that bring this moment closer," she expressed hope.
The titled Ukrainian jumper said that her cat is also from a shelter and is also purebred.
