Educating Kabul’s Next Generation on Animal Kindness and Safety

What a truly fantastic and hugely important day we had last week at our Nowzad Animal Hospital in Kabul!

Our dedicated veterinary team organised a special Animal Education Day for around 45 very enthusiastic school students. It was wonderful to welcome them to the hospital and see their excitement about learning how to be safe around animals and, crucially, how to treat them with kindness and respect.

The session was carefully designed to be engaging, focusing on two crucial topics that have a massive impact on the community: rabies prevention and essential general animal welfare. The students were keen to soak up all the information, participating in discussions and learning practical steps for responsible interaction with animals.

This activity is a key part of our mission. It’s all about encouraging learning in a friendly and supportive environment while promoting empathy, responsibility, and kindness toward animals, right here in Afghanistan. Educating the next generation is the most powerful tool we have for creating lasting change.

A massive thank you to our incredible vet team for organising such a successful and impactful day, and to everyone who continues to support our work and make these special outreach events possible!

Whilst Pen and Dan spent more hours on the road today, the rest of the Nowzad Ukraine team, David, Liuba, Dr Lachlan and Angela were hard at work organising and packing the van ready to head into Hostomel and Borodyanka Sunday morning. In addition to food supplies, there is also all the necessary equipment and supplies needed to set up a surgical clinic. The amount we need to take with us to set up a surgical clinic from nothing is massive! Everything from instruments to medications to means fo

As part of Operation Kramatorsk, our incredible partner, Ksenia, has been on the ground very recently - visiting the “hidden” feline heroes of this frontline city. Here - there is a quiet, tireless army of women refusing to leave their four-legged family members behind. Ksenia recently visited Natalia – a volunteer who shares her tidy, bright flat with 70 cats. Most of these cat rescues were brought to her by soldiers from the front lines because they know Natalia’s door is always open. Despite

It’s been a whirlwind of a week here in Ukraine, with Operation Kramatorsk. We’ve had some incredible wins, like getting five more dogs out of Kramatorsk and safely to Kyiv yesterday —including sweet little Peter, who is now receiving the veterinary care he needs! Of course, the frontlines always throw challenges our way. Our ambulance has unfortunately broken down again, which is a tough setback for our team. But the work doesn’t stop! We’re still pushing forward with our veterinary work (neu

Yesterday was one of the long ones, but it was worth every second! Just look at the dogs as they come out of the crates after the journey, into their new home for now. Dan and Pen have just finished a VERY tough 12-hour drive to get 5 more dogs out of the danger zone in Kramatorsk and safely into the shelter in Kyiv. #nowzad #kramatorsk #operationkramatorsk #ukrainerelief #nowzaddogscharity

Today has been a total whirlwind of emotion, action, and hope. In the Field with Pen 🎥 Check out the video from Pen, who’s currently en route with a truckload of animals - one dog (‘Peter’) going straight to the vets in Kyiv this evening to hopefully resolve some worrying health issues. We’re moving as fast as we can to get these dogs to safety in Kyiv and away from the immediate dangers of the conflict. Every mile brings them closer to a new, peaceful life.
