🚨 CATS ARE DYING IN SOUTH LEBANON: THE DEATH TOLL IS RISING 🚨

The South of Lebanon is under siege, bombarded with illegal chemicals that are poisoning everything we hold dear. Our animals, our wildlife, and our history are being erased.

The cats here are suffering terribly. 😢 They’re showing heartbreaking symptoms: severe diarrhea, strange discharges, heavy drooling, blackened and rotting teeth. They’re wasting away, losing up to a kilogram in just days. Many can barely move, drained of all their energy. Before they die, they vomit white foam. It’s agony to watch, and we don’t know what’s causing it—if it’s poison or something worse.

Today, I was able to rescue one cat just in time. She’s now in the hospital, fighting for her life. She’s refusing to eat and suffering from severe constipation—something we’ve never seen before. This is a living nightmare for these innocent souls. 💔

We are desperate for answers. I want to help as many as I can, but I can’t do it alone. Please, consider donating to support their treatment. Your kindness can save lives. 🙏 Any amount, big or small, is incredibly generous.

Please donate—link in our bio.

Let’s stand together to protect these helpless creatures. 🌱❤️

💔 Update on Fossa 🐾

Fossa, the brave cat we rescued from the south of Lebanon, is still healing from her injuries caused by the explosion. We took her to the vet today, and while there’s no internal bleeding, while her bones survived, her back leg’s ligament didn’t, we’re waiting on a specialist to come back to Beirut to know the best treatment for her.

I think when Fossa was in the south, she couldn’t walk because her injuries were so fresh, and the pain was overwhelming. Now, she seems to be either less in pain or getting used to it. When we checked her, she didn’t scream, but at the shelter, she still isn’t walking. I think she’s just so strong, and the pain is manageable as long as she doesn’t move too much, but walking is still hard for her. 💔

But as if Fossa’s battle wasn’t enough, our country is facing its own terrifying reality. Lebanon is bracing for what feels like the worst, with chaos unfolding at our borders. We don’t know what’s coming, but the fear is real. 🇱🇧

We need your prayers more than ever—for Fossa, for our shelter, and for Lebanon. If you can help support us during this time, we would be forever grateful. Every donation keeps our shelter running and our animals safe through these uncertain days.

Fossa’s Update❤️

Fossa is finally safe in Beirut, with me, after surviving the horrors of the war in South Lebanon. Most of her little body is broken, but she’s here—alive, strong, and ready to start her long road to recovery.

We’re waiting for the doctor to arrive in Lebanon to begin her surgeries. In the meantime, we’ll be doing a full blood test and x-rays on Monday to figure out where we can start.

Fossa is deeply traumatized. She meows constantly, as if she’s trying to understand what’s happening. She’s eating like she’s never seen food before, even though she was fed in the south—this is pure survival instinct. She’s scared of every loud noise, and her body is full of pain. It’s heartbreaking to watch her suffer like this, but she’s a fighter, and so are we.

To everyone who has donated: thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your support allowed us to get 60 kilos of dry food and 72 cans of wet food to Hussein in the south, where he’s feeding 40 cats amidst the bombings. This will keep them fed for a week or two, but we need more help.

Fossa needs us—she needs you. We’re fighting for her recovery, and we can’t do it without you. Please don’t give up on us. Speak up, pray for Lebanon, and if you can, donate to help Fossa fight her fight.

💔🙏 Link in bio to donate.

P.S. If you didn’t know, Fossa was caught in an explosion that threw her into the air. She hit the ground so hard that most of her body was broken. This is what she’s fighting through right now. 💔

FOSSA UPDATE: Trying to Get her to Safety from the South to Beirut

We’re doing everything we can to get Fossa, our injured cat from the south of Lebanon, to Beirut, but the situation is heartbreaking. The bombings today were so intense that no one could safely travel. I couldn’t risk anyone’s life, so we’re waiting, hoping for a safe moment to bring her to safety. My heart aches that I can’t go myself, but I have a family of over 100 animals depending on me. Hussein and some of his brave friends have stayed behind despite the dangers to help care for cats like Fossa and 40 others. I’m praying we can bring her here by Sunday and start her treatment.

Emergency Support Needed
We were able to get 3 bags of dry food and 48 cans of wet food to Hussein , who is risking everything to help Fossa and other cats in the area. Your donations will go directly towards Fossa’s rescue, treatment, and recovery. I will also spare some funds to continue supporting Hussein in caring for these cats, for as long as we can. Bringing Fossa from the south to Beirut will cost at least $150, and her treatment may reach $2,000. Please, if you can, donate towards Fossa’s rescue and help us keep supporting Hussein in this difficult time. The link is in my bio. And please pray for Lebanon—together, we can make a difference, one soul at a time.

Thank you so much for your support. 💔

Meet Blue 💙

Yesterday, I rescued Blue from the south of Lebanon, a region now devastated by war. Despite the bombings, we are thankful that he is physically unharmed, but his heart carries the weight of what he’s been through.

This is his story:
A few months ago, Blue wandered into a man’s home in the south, seeking refuge. The man took him in, providing safety and care. But as the airstrikes began, the man was forced to flee for his life, leaving Blue behind. When he returned, his house was in ruins, destroyed by the bombs—but there was Blue, sitting on the stairs, alone, scared, and waiting for a miracle.

Blue is just a puppy, 4 months old. He didn’t deserve the terror of war, the deafening sounds of explosions, or the fear that filled his little heart. None of us deserve this. But now, Blue is safe with us. He’ll soon be vaccinated, and once he’s ready, he’ll be able to play with other dogs, away from the horrors he’s endured.

We are looking for sponsors to help with Blue’s care. Any amount you can give will go a long way in helping him heal. If you can’t donate, please share his story—your support and engagement are just as valuable.

Thank you for being part of Blue’s journey to find peace. 🐾💙

Luke’s Update

✨Yesterday, Sunday, October 6th, was a day full of emotions—Luke finally made it to his family in France! After two long years of care, love, and recovery, he’s off to a beautiful new beginning, and my heart is bursting with happiness for him. 💕

None of this would have been possible without YOU. From the moment I found him barely clinging to life, so many of you stepped up to help with his bills, his care, and everything in between. To every single person who supported us along the way—thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have no idea how much it means. 🫶
(Last slide: Graphic content, Nov 2022)

A huge shoutout to .in.paris , who worked tirelessly to find Luke a home that truly understands who he is and everything he’s been through. They made sure he’s going to a place where he will be cherished and loved for the rest of his days.

To each one of you who was involved in Luke’s evacuation, who contributed financially or emotionally, who shared his story and made sure more people knew about him—thank you. Living in Lebanon, especially during such difficult times, makes moments like these even more meaningful. Knowing that I was able to save his life one final time fills me with a deep sense of gratitude. We don’t know our future anymore, today we are a live but tomorrow is uncertain after all of these aggressive explosions!

But Stories like his put some light in these dark times❤️

Luke’s story is one of survival, love, and community—and we did it together. 🐾❤️

Meet Luke, the fighter you all know and love. (Graphic content in the next slide)

In 2022, I rescued Luke after a horrific car crash that nearly took his life. Since then, he’s fought every day to heal, and today, he’s not just surviving—he’s thriving! 🐾💙

Now, Luke has a once-in-a-lifetime chance to escape the war here in Lebanon and reach his forever home in France. The only thing standing between Luke and his new life is $300. That’s all it takes to give him the freedom he deserves and the love he’s been waiting for.

I can’t do this alone, and Luke needs your help. Would you consider donating to help him finally be free?

Every bit counts. Together, we can give Luke the happy ending he’s fought so hard for. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. ❤️

✨ Gratitude Post ✨

I can’t begin to express how much YOU have made possible. Together, we’ve achieved so much – more than I ever imagined. Because of your generosity, we’ve come so far, but there’s still a long way to go. ❤️

As much as I want to help more animals from the war zone, I’ve had to focus on providing for my family and the ones already under my care. My heart aches that I can’t do more right now, but soon hopefully ❤️

We’ve set these goals, and with your help, we’ve made amazing progress:

• $4,600 for food. Thanks to your kindness, we’ve reached $3,500, but we still need $1,000.
• $400 for crates & leashes to evacuate our animals safely.
• $300 for litter to last two months.
• $1,200 each month for dog boarding fees for our dogs.
• $1,000 each month to keep our cat shelter running smoothly.

This is all just for survival. Beyond our immediate needs, we still have over $5,000 in debt, with so much more we’re forced to put on hold – like CT scans for our sick cats, necessary surgeries, and expensive treatments we simply can’t afford right now. But we’re doing everything we can to keep going.

Let me share some of their stories with you:

• Jupiter and Naomi, two beautiful souls, blind & half blind🥲 came to us from the same rescuer in the south who is doing God’s work. They’re thriving with us, thanks to you.
• Gaza, a sweet girl who had a broken leg, unfortunately has lost muscle mass and now needs rehabilitation. Her rescuer had to flea & couldn’t give her the proper post-surgery treatment. We’ve also noticed some alarming symptoms that we’re closely monitoring.
• Our 18-year-old senior cat, whose parents I can’t reach, remains in our care, and we’re doing our best to provide her the comfort she deserves in her golden years.
• Caramel, just 5 months old, whose parents are currently homeless. We’re trying to support him and his family as much as we can, even amidst all this chaos.

Your support is literally life-saving. We’re overwhelmed, but we’re not giving up. Every bit of help counts. 🙏🐾

**In these dark times, we must hold on to the light of hope.**

On September 27th, Beirut was hit hard with over 85 bombings, tragically taking many lives in crowded areas. We’re grateful to still be alive, though the destruction is only 20 minutes away from us.

Amidst this chaos, we want to update you about our South’s cats.

Their journey to recovery is just beginning. Hr is facing serious health issues—one of his kidneys has stopped working, and his lymph nodes are inflamed. He’ll need to be on medication for a month, with constant care and proper hygiene to help him heal from a bite infection. After this, he’ll need 1 kidney and teeth removal surgeries. We’re doing all we can for him and praying he makes a full recovery.

Our Lady, just five months old, was born with a deformity in her eyelids, which are too small for her eyes. When she turns one, she’ll need surgery to open her eyelids so she can see properly.

This is the first time in my life that I’ve felt this way—I truly hope and wish with all my heart to see them recover, and for all of us to stay alive through these dark times.

We are fighting hard for them, but right now, we urgently need your help. We need to secure food for our cats and dogs for the next two to three months, costing around $4,600—about 120 bags of food that are desperately needed. Without your support, we won’t be able to provide for them.

Please, if you can, donate any amount through the link in our bio. We are truly desperate and can’t do this without you.

Thank you for being the light in these difficult times.

Meet Tweety, Our New Rescue 🐾

Even though I’m exhausted, running a high fever, and with the Israeli airstrikes and threats over Beirut for the last couple of days, I couldn’t ignore this little soul. 💔

Meet Tweety, our newest rescue. He’s in a terrible state—severely dehydrated, possibly anemic from all the fleas, and his entire body is covered in ringworm, which is highly contagious and very difficult to treat. Despite the chaos and everything happening, I had to save him.

With Lebanon’s situation—both economically and with the ongoing conflict—it’s becoming increasingly difficult to provide for our rescues. Tweety needs to be placed in a paid foster home and requires medication and special care.

I’m reaching out for your help. If you’re able to donate and support Tweety’s recovery during these challenging times, please click the link in my bio. Every little bit helps.

Thank you so much for your support. 🙏

Goodbye Simba💔

Simba left us few days ago, I was devastated by the news, we fought so much for him, gave him every treatment in the book for his case, but unfortunately his body was too fragile 💔

Simba felt love his whole life, he was a well beloved stray cat, & we made sure he felt love & encouragement in his last days to treasure his life❤️

I fight for every life, at every age, they all deserve to be treated like equals and respectfully specially senior cats, they deserve to know love, patience & admiration ❤️

Goodbye beautiful soul❤️ forever treasured❤️

Sorry to talk about it, Simba left us but not his vet bill, 400$ were donated for his bill, but we will need 210$ (i did not close them because I monthly withdraw your donations). If you wish to donate to help us close his bill, links in bio❤️
We thank you❤️

My sleepy cats unbothered by my presence 🥹❤️

We work tirelessly to manage this many cats living in peace with each other, it doesn’t come easy, we still have fights, but we try to make their life at the shelter more like home!

Sometimes I still can’t believe my treasures were one day someone’s trash, but never again, their future is bright, but until they are happily adopted,I try to make their present situation as comfortable as it can be❤️

I couldn’t made this possible without your support, every one of you is making a difference, being in our community, sharing our lives with the world, donating anything you can manage to share with us, sending positivity & love IS MORE THAN WE CAN WE WOULD HAVE HOPED FOR❤️

Simba 1 week update!

Simba is diagnosed with Calicivirus, which his gum, tongue & respiratory system gets severely infected, which makes him unable to eat or drink!

Now Simba is fighting for his life, literally!

Unfortunately he is not responding well to the treatment, so today we changed his whole treatment! But as he is not eating we need to put a feeding tube, but his body is toooo weak for any kind of anesthesia!

Yesterday we did a blood transfusion (BIG THANKS TO CHACCOUR OUR BLOOD DONOR, we love you for saving his life❤️❤️)

We are hoping with this, it will give his body some energy to fight more & to be able to insert this feeding tube! Because now we are in a loop, where the only way to get better is to eat, but he can’t eat! 💔

Not to forget he is 12 years old, this virus is very deadly to cats his age because they drop their immunity system & their body is too old to fight!

But I am fighting with you mami❤️

Would you help him fight too?? His bill until now is 610$ (& we still have another week at the hospital, so it will be another 600$)
PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME COVER HIS BILL! i cant afford 1,300$ 🥲 so far 300$ were donated to him!

If you can donate link in bio, or contact us to give you other ways🙏🏻

If you can’t donate, share❤️ it is as important as donating 🙏🏻

This kitten with an aggressive eye infection that blinded her!
A kind lady took her in but by tomorrow she has no place for her!

I have a place for her but not the funding💔

It breaks my heart to know i can help but my hands are tied!

This kitten will need approximately 300$ as starter!
- 100$ blood test (FIV, CBC, Chem10)
- 40$ check up at a specialist
- 12$ anti flea
- 20$ taxi
- 40$ per night at the vet (she will need more than 3 nights)

If at least half of the amount needed will get donated that blind girly is ours, but with over 5,000$ worth of debts I really can’t move!

Barely 1 month old & can’t see, only feel her pain💔

URGENT FUNDING FOR FOOD!

We need your help to feed my family ❤️

I have 24 dogs & 55 cats, food monthly is around 1,200$

In 5 days we will be out of food & no money to pay for it💔

Other than the food i have the cat shelter expensive which are around 1,000$ a month

As well we pay boarding for our dogs 1,400$ a month!

This is other than the taxis, & surprise expenses that exceed 1,200$ every month 🥲
