Dear Romania Animal Supporters,

Please help us rescue thirty animals from Ploiesti.

Mihaela in Ploiesti, Romania contacted Nancy Janes and Romania Animal Rescue (RAR) about thirty dogs and puppies and three cats that have been abandoned due to the death of the owner. There are puppies as young as 11 days, some 2 months; all of them living in squalor. The nephew of the deceased owner inherited the house and wants the animals out now. The living conditions of these animals have become truly appalling: There has been little for the dogs to eat, they have no bedding space, and the floors are unsanitary with urine and feces.

The health of the dogs is quickly deteriorating. There is no veterinary care for them. As there is also no quarantine facility, the dogs are at high risk of communicable diseases like distemper, parvovirus, and coronavirus, contracted by dogs eating infected feces, causing diarrhea and other gastrointestinal problems. Two of the cats appear to be very ill at the moment.

We are working with numerous organizations in Europe to try to find homes or shelters outside of Romania for these unfortunate souls:

• Chrissy from Romania Animal Aid, Penny and Gerlinde from Human Animal Rights, and Cristina Zuba from APAM are searching for places in which to relocate these little ones.
• Dr. Aurelian Stefan and Dr. Pepe Stefan are taking the mobile caravan to provide veterinary care for these animals.
• RAR is seeking veterinary care to provide all of the dogs, puppies and cats with parasite treatment, spay/neuter for the older dogs, and vaccines for all of them. We will also complete their paperwork for transit as well as microchip them.
• Romania Animal Rescue is also raising funds to provide transit for these animals when and if homes are found.
• RAR has already donated funds for food for these animals.
• Mihaela is graciously tending to the animals and feeding them daily with the donated food.

Shelters and homes need to be found for these animals as soon as possible. The nephew is threatening to dump the animals on the streets or in the woods, without the consideration that these animals have never had the experience to fend for themselves. If you can offer a home to one of these animals, please email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

Although Romania Animal Rescue's main mission is to provide free spay/neuter for the animals and train Romanian veterinarians on surgical procedures, we feel that this is an urgent case that simply cannot go unhelped.

Please help us rescue thirty animals from Ploiesti.
