Abandoned pet dogs and cats in Ukraine's warzone need your help

In the months since the invasion of Ukraine, 8 million people had to flee their homes, leaving everything behind everything including their 1+ million beloved pets. A million of homeless cats and dogs are now without shelter, proper care, or protection. These abandoned animals roam the streets, facing hunger, disease, and an uncertain fate. Historically low sterilization and vaccination rates in Ukraine is already resulting in an exploding population of stray animals, and a looming rabies crisis which will impact entire communities for decades to come.

No large NGO is addressing this situation. The massive spread of rabies will not only kill innocent stray animals, but pose a deadly risk to returning families and especially children, who are most susceptible to this terrifying disease.

There is a solution

Ukraine War Animals Relief Fund (UWARF) is a registered charitable organization dedicated to providing veterinary services, including sterilization, vaccination, and microchipping, to address the urgent problem of unvaccinated and unsterilized abandoned pets in Ukraine. We are a network of citizens, mobilizing a dedicated team of veterinarians and volunteers to undertake a crucial mission.

To carry out this life-saving and urgent mission, we need to raise enough to cover the cost of veterinary supplies, clinic space, medical treatments, transportation and honorariums for the local volunteers who undertake the dangerous work of humanely capturing each animal for treatment.

Will You Join Us?

Since February 2022, through videos and first-hand accounts, the world has witnessed unimaginable devastation in Ukraine. The humanity crisis is ongoing and overwhelming.

By supporting the UWARF you CAN help. 

• Give hope to people of Ukraine

It costs $50.65 for UWARF to sterilize, vaccinate and microchip a stray pet

This is an immediate and tangible action that will have immeasurable impacts for years to come -- for every single animal we treat, and the families who love them.

UWARF's missions are made possible by kind and brave volunteers who have dedicated their lives to protecting innocent animals, and people like you who know that even though we are far away, we can still help.
