From the Streets of Kabul to a Forever Home: Help Sparky’s Wheels Reach the Finish Line
03 February 2026

In the bustling, often unforgiving streets of Kabul, survival is a daily battle for the stray animals who call it home. For a small, spirited dog named Sparky, that battle almost ended in December 2024.

Do you remember Beauty and Grace? Both rescued from the horrors of an Afghan brick kiln, these two arrived at Maverick’s Donkey Sanctuary in late summer 2025, very weak and wounded.

While our teams are working tirelessly across Ukraine as we speak, life at our hospital in Kabul continues to be full of surprises! Last week, we collaborated once again with Afghanistan’s National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA) to protect the country’s precious wildlife too. This partnership took us across the country. We had a young Ibex (a sturdy, majestic mountain goat known for its impressive curved horns) come in that had been narrowly saved from hunters by alert NEPA staff from

It was a MASSIVE day on the ground in Kramatorsk yesterday. Our amazing trio — Lach, Angela, and Pen with Ksenia (the toughest and bravest girl we know!) have been working tirelessly through the streets and inside homes, successfully vaccinating 70+ more dogs and cats, doing basic health checks and nail clipping as many as they could.

They say life finds a way, and here in Ukraine, that couldn’t be more true. As our Mighty Team of 3 travelled between shelters and homes today, they stopped to see these beautiful tulips blooming. They are growing beneath drone nets and skies filled with the sound of explosions in the distance - a jarring reminder of the world we’re operating in right now. Despite the obstacles and our ambulance being sidelined, the team is pushing forward! They’ve been busy on the ground all day vaccinating

Well, you know what they say about the best-laid plans... We’ve had a bit of a setback on our mission to Ukraine. While the rest of the team has made it safely to Kramatorsk, our mobile veterinary ambulance decided it had other ideas and broke down in Germany. It’s a frustrating turn of events, especially since this ambulance is vital for our TNVR (Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return) operations in areas where veterinary facilities are no longer standing. Despite being an ambulance down (and having
