They Had To Euthanize A Multi-Colored Dog In Three Days. When The Dog Sensed This? He Did The Unthinkable.

Sometimes animal rescue facilities, try as they might, just can’t manage to save everyone. The main problem for most facilities is overcrowding. Almost any shelter for dogs or cats has suffered or is currently suffering from massive overcrowding problems.


There’s simply too many animals out there and not enough homes. That was the problem at a shelter in Constanta, Romania where Angus arrived after being attacked by another dog.

The shelter authorities didn’t have any space for animals, and they made a difficult decision. Angus, along with 150 other dogs, would be euthanized over a three day period.

Local activists convinced the mayor to stop the killings for a few weeks while they tried to find places for the animals.

They got to work right away, moving many injured and sickly animals as fast as they possibly could.

Anne-Marie Dimi Marcu was taking pictures of the animals who were in the worst shape, and that’s how she met Angus.

He was thin, blind, dirty, and wounded. Anne pulled out 15 adult dogs and 11 puppies. Most of them, including Angus, went to her home.

She made arrangements for Angus to travel to Scotland after he had spent some time healing from his injuries and conditions.

It took time, but eventually he arrived in the arms of a woman named Amanda. Angus lost his eye, and he’s still recovering from all of his problems even now, but he is at last with someone who loves him.

And he’s going to live a long, happy life.

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the  Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

SIGN NOW! BAN THE SALE OF CRUEL ‘LIVE ANIMAL’ KEYCHAINS

>>> Sign the petition now to tell China to ban live animal keychains! <<< Turtles, fish and lizards are being stuffed and sealed into plastic bags and sold on the streets as keychains in China. The cost of these animals lives? About $1.50. Swimming in a small pool of colored water, the animals only last until the oxygen is used up. Then, they can theoretically be released and kept as pets – although it’s doubtful that the same people who think an animal makes a nifty trinket have the slightest clue about how to properly care for them. In an interview with CNN, David Neale, animal welfare director of Animals Asia said, “Lack of food and diminishing oxygen concentrations within both the water and the small amount of air in these plastic pouches will cause the animals to die in a relatively short period of time after the pouches are sealed.” 😠So Cruel😠 ACTUAL REAL LIVE ANIMALS are being sealed into tiny plastic pouches and sold as f**king ke...

Tesco: Ditch palm oil in your own-brand products!

>>>SIGN PETITION HERE<<< My name is Oscar, I’m 15 and I want to do everything I can to protect our environment .  I was really upset and angry when I found out about the huge deforestation that is involved in the palm oil industry,  and that’s why I’m calling on Tesco to ditch palm oil from their own-brand products. Iceland has already banned palm oil from their own brand products, so we know that this is possible for Tesco too. As the largest supermarket in the UK (and using over 40,000 tonnes of palm oil every year!), Tesco has an opportunity to set an example to other supermarkets and food producers that  destroying swathes of forests for palm oil is not acceptable. I run a online cause called ‘Justice4Earth’ ( @justice4earth  on Instagram and  @justice4earth  on Twitter) where I raise awareness about environmental issues. I found out that palm oil is literally everywhere: from shampoos, toothpastes and detergen...
