Battle Buddies & Deliveries Under Fire
08 October 2025

Pen recognised a universal truth: in the chaos and horror of war, the bond between a soldier and a defence-less animal offers a vital lifeline — a source of comfort, hope, and humanity. This is what drives us every day to help these forgotten animals in war zones like Ukraine.
