The animal rescuers shared photos of the pets with Ukrainska Pravda.Zhyttia

 
 

The organisation explained that its volunteers carry out such charity missions about once a month.

The veterinary team consists of three veterinary surgeons who provide assistance to animals nearly round-the-clock.

The vets also encounter complicated cases during this work, such as eye damage or tumours.
