Fostering Hope: Inna’s mission to Rescue Abandoned Ukrainian Pets

September 21, 2024

Inna’s Story

Winter in Ukraine is dangerously cold. 

 
Many families fleeing their homes during the Russian invasion were unable to bring their pets with them, leaving many cats and dogs to fend for themselves. Thankfully, people like Inna and her daughter stepped up to care for these sweet pets separated from their families in the war.

Inna and her daughter left occupied Donetsk and moved to Odesa, where they saw the suffering of abandoned pets. They knew they needed help, so they took in as many pets as possible.

Inna quickly realized she didn’t have enough space, so she bought land to start her own shelter.  

Now, Inna and her daughter have more than 90 dogs and 20 cats living in their shelter and 300 additional homeless pets under their care. They also feed free-roaming pets who live on roadsides.

Inna and her daughter are just two of the many selfless and caring people working night and day to care for orphaned pets in Ukraine.

Greater Good Charities continues to partner with shelters like Inna’s to provide nutritious pet food, winterized pet enclosures, and other essentials to aid them in keeping pets safe, fed, and warm.
