When animals are rescued, they become part of the rescuer's value system and may end up being put down even if they can recover.
That is why this year's Vesak theme is animals as fellow beings. This means we treat the rescued animals with respect and as fellow beings. The approach is to offer them support to get well or be comfortable, not as a "rescue" that we do as we please.
This video for Vesak 2024 explains it.

To celebrate Vesak Day, our message for 2024 is Animals as Fellow Beings. We promote the idea of seeing animal as sentiment beings who has feelings, thoughts...

We are very happy to update the shipment finally arrived in Myanmar. It took a while for up to raise the food. The logistics were slow and expensive. But it ARRIVED! We focused on UTI, renal care, anti-flea and tick, kitten milk and medical items. These will allow the cats and dogs who are sick to recover fast. Also to keep the shelter flea and tick-free. Things are difficult in Myanmar and more so for the shelters. So we thank eveyone who has support this.
WE are starting to build a new shipmebt for them. You can support by sponsoring even 1 ctn or bag of food. Every order counts. To support, pls go to: https://www.ahasg.com/support_burma.html

The joy of kittenhood. When we rescued Chorny Kot from an industrial estate, he was very sick and had parasites all over him. His immune system was very weak and for the next 1 year, it was very frequent visits to vets for different infections. He also had a deformed breastbone. It feels like a lump but there is no health implications.
Despite it all, Chorny Kot was a very sweet kitten. See how he massages his papa. Today, he's grown into a happy healthy adult cat but still very kitten like. We are so happy and so proud for this brave loving boy.

We rescued Baby Chorny from an industrial estate and later adopt him. He is black, has a deformed breastbone and was very sick for a while. We had rescued 3 ...

2 years ago today, Kenry left.
When we first rescued him, the vet told us he is FIV+ with kidney failure and heart murmur. If he goes back to the street, he will die very soon. We adopted him and he stayed with us happy and healthy for 3 years before he passed away.
When he was dying, Uncle Rob (the ginger cat) knew and stayed by his side to keep him company.
A cat's condition can be serious and near death. But if they are given medical attention, their condition can be stabilized and they can continue to live happily. As we always say, a well cared for FIV+ cat can easily outlive a neglected non FIV cat.

Gold-D FIV We are against the convenience euthanasia of healthy FIV+ cats.
Some rescue groups put down FIV+ cats who look sick or dying.
Cats FIV or not will look like they are dying if badly neglected.
The job of a rescuer is to give them a chance to recuperate and get well. Not to "rescue" a cat by killing it.
Mr. Cute when rescued is an example of a cat who looks like he's very sick or dying. But all he needs is good food, a home, and lots of love. Say no to convenience euthanasia. Say yes to loving FIV cats.

Rabbit just won 2 new awards for his FIV documentary.
Best Documentary from Bulgaria
Qtr finalist for Best Ethnographic film, New York, USA

When Rabbit was first rescued, a "rescue group" suggest he be out down cos he looked too sick. Killing him was meant to be a "humane way" to help" him.
Luckily, the rescuer refused and continued to look for help. That was when we adopted him.

Dont understand how they call themselves "rescuers" when they are so quick to demand a cat's death without even seeing the cat or getting a vet's opinion! We are glad the initial rescuer stood firm in the face of pressure!
This is Rabbit's FIV film trailer.
