Help Them Find Their Way Home – Five Special Rescues Need You!

Now, we urgently need help for the animals still waiting for their chance to go home. Winter is closing in on Kabul, & these five need to get home to the safety & warmth of their families. Every kennel space they free up also means another vulnerable animal can come into our care, recover & heal.

He's already enjoying his comfy new bed, his toys, & all the love & attention from his new family, who absolutely adore him. Kiki Cat, our beautiful tripaw girl, has taken to home life like a natural. She loves watching TV, soaking up cuddles, & making herself right at home.
