Rescue and adoption support for animals affected by war

LIST OF ANIMAL SHELTERS AND PRIVATE RESCUES IN UKRAINE

Whatever you choose to do, please consider adopting or helping an animal from a war zone. When dealing with a shelter or a private individual requesting donations or offering an animal for adoption, always check if previosly they regulary posted receipts and reports of the money they spent. Before sending money or arranging animal transport, ask important questions such as: Do you provide receipts, may I choose a veterinarian and pay the clinic directly, may I choose the transport company myself and pay them directly, can we have a video call to see both the animal and the person caring for it, will you provide receipts for taxi or for anything else requireed for adoption/transport. Every shelter or private individual has a social media page, carefully check their reviews, comments, and activity history.
