Paws Across Borders: Protecting the Lives of Ukrainian Cats

MHF board member Olivia Chorny collected cat food donations and supplies in Vancouver and shipped them to animal shelters in Ukraine.

With a passion for animal welfare, MHF board member Olivia Chorny took action to help Ukrainian felines in need. 

She led a project to collect cat food donations and supplies from local pet stores in Vancouver, and then shipped them across the world to animal shelters in the Khramatorsk region of Ukraine. 

Thanks to Olivia’s unwavering commitment, countless cats in the Khramatorsk region are now receiving the nourishment and care they deserve. The support she provided to the struggling animal shelters has not only improved the quality of life for these felines but also allowed the shelters to focus their efforts on additional rescue initiatives and expand their reach.
