Nimisha ma’am reported this extremely old soul today weak, probably blind, and struggling to even understand where he is. Age has taken away his strength. Failing vision has taken away his safety. Every step on the road for him is fear, confusion, and silent suffering. An old, blind dog...

The hardest of decisions has been made. Tomorrow afternoon, our vet, who has been with us every step of this journey, will come to our home and help Ralph cross. Despite eating copious amounts of food, he lost 500kg in 3 weeks, down from 3kg to 2.5kg. His temperature is too low as he is too weak to regulate his body and he is showing signs of muscle weakness. Although no indicator for pain (we checked, twice), he is literally withering away and prolonging this will be completely and utterly for us, not for him and you all know by now, we would never, ever do that to our kids. He is home, on top of our warm bed and he will be so spoiled the next 24 hours. He will be hugged so much and will be told we love him until the moment he slips away in our arms Simon and I are devastated this is happening a 3rd time this year and this has been my fear for many, many years. Thank you all for being there for us and keep Ralph in your thoughts tomorrow as he starts his journey over the rainbow bridge.

💔 Baby Donkey Roo – Urgent Appeal Just 10 days old, Roo was discarded in Lahore with both his back legs broken. His owner snatched him from his mother because he was “useless.” To us, he is everything. Maya, our old donkey, has taken him in, and we are bottle-feeding him too. His will to live is strong, but he needs urgent treatment. A huge thank you to our amazing supporters who stepped forward to help bring him home safely 💕 But sadly, it’s not nearly enough to cover his transport and medical costs. Please, be Roo’s miracle — help us give him the chance at life he deserves. ❤️ 🔗

This is Zephyr 💔 A gentle soul… deeply broken. He was kept tied on a leash—something no cat should ever endure—and then thrown away when he was no longer wanted. Now he is safe with us… but he is not okay. He doesn’t eat, he doesn’t drink… even catnip cannot comfort him. Because no matter how they are treated… they still love their family. They wait… they miss… they don’t understand why they were left behind. Zephyr also has a limp in his back leg… his body and heart both need healing. We need your help. If you can sponsor his neutering, treatment, and care, you can give him a chance to heal. And if you can offer him a loving home… please come forward. He deserves a life where he is never abandoned again. Please share his story 🤍 💳 PayPal: ❤️ Construction GoFundMe: 🔗 Linktree: (If you face any issue donating, please use our Linktree for multiple options.)

A hard rescue today as I got a message from a kind local lady who needed help with an old blind dog. The poor boy was most likely dumped in the area because the “end was close for him”. He was confused on the beach and stuck. He wouldn’t have lasted much longer were it not for their bravery. His vet results were about as bad as it gets. His eyes might be glaucoma as he can’t see a thing and his kidneys and liver are bad as well as severe anemia. His anemia is so bad we can’t even put him on a drip. While I was driving him around I just had to keep talking to him as his head would keep dropping. His body is so weak. He is also very hard to handle as he lashes out with bites as he can’t see what is going on around him. He is terrified. The ladies called him Rocky as they are hoping he will make a comeback. It won’t be easy at all but he did start eating, drinking and resting well this evening. We will all have to keep everything crossed for this lovely boy. Whatever happens he isn’t on his own and he has the best medical care now. Rocky even let me pet his head tonight. I think he understands he is safe.

Alvin… just a tiny baby, only a few months old, arrived today after an exhausting 8-hour journey 💔 We don’t know where his mother is… we don’t know what he has been through… but we do know he is safe now. He is shy, weak, and still trying to understand this new world, but slowly he is finding comfort. Surrounded by other babies here, he already has little friends… and we are giving him all the love and time he needs. At this age, Alvin needs milk 4–5 litres a day, given in small feeds throughout the day to keep him strong and help him grow. Along with this, he will need medical care, supplements, and constant monitoring. Caring for a baby like Alvin is not easy… but we will do everything for him. Please, amazing supporters like you, help us give him the life he deserves. Even £5 and a share can make a miracle happen for this little soul. 💳 PayPal: ❤️ Construction GoFundMe: 🔗 Linktree:

Every day this sweet boy is showing a little more improvement. He has finally started eating… his pain is easing… but his spine injury remains serious. We are treating him with everything we have medicines, care, patience, and love and slowly trying to win back his trust. He was hit by a fast-moving vehicle, and the impact aggravated an old injury he was already suffering from. Yet, despite all this pain, he is holding on… and fighting. Please keep this gentle soul in your prayers. Your kindness and contributions help us continue such life-saving treatments. If you wish to support his healing journey, even a small donation can make a big difference. Donate via Pytm gpay 7042677382 #dogs

Another tiny angel has joined our nursery… Willi, a fragile baby donkey who lost his mother far too soon. Last night he cried until his little voice broke — searching for the warmth, the safety, the love that was suddenly taken from him. Today he went from mother to mother, hoping someone would give him milk… and my heart shattered watching him try to understand a world that has been so cruel to him. But his suffering ends here. No hunger. No beatings. No overloads. No torture like his mother faced. His life will not end the way hers did. He will grow up surrounded by gentleness, soft hands, full stomachs, and a family that will never abandon him. We are doing everything we can to help him settle, to show him that he is safe now — forever. ❤️ 🔗 Please follow and share — it helps us care for the little ones already in our nursery and the many still waiting for rescue.

After 4 days of constant love and treatment, this abandoned Labrador is finally a bit stable. When we rescued him, he was in a heartbreaking state weak, malnourished, suffering from tick fever, low Hb, and liver issues. The next one week is critical.

Rescue update 💔 He didn’t deserve this. A speeding vehicle crushed this innocent soul and left him helpless on the roadside unable to walk, scared, and in unbearable pain. Yet even through the suffering, his eyes still ask for love… for a second chance at life. He is finally safe, but his treatment, scans, medicines, and recovery will need urgent support. Every small donation can help this sweet baby fight through the pain and stand again. 🙏❤️ Please help us save him. Donate, share, and be his voice. Because kindness can heal what cruelty broke.

Almost five years ago, one of our bright beneficiaries, David, lost his mother after she travelled to the Upper East Region to seek medical treatment. He became an orphan. In the midst of that tragedy, he left Accra and disappeared from our scholarship programme. We did everything we could to bring him back. We had even identified a loving family that was ready to take him in so he could continue his education through our Student Training and Education Programme (STEP), but his family was not ready to let him return. We never gave up. In 2024, we heard that David had returned to Accra, so we travelled to Kasoa to look for him. We were relieved to find him, but his family was not forthcoming, making it difficult for us to stay in touch. Sadly, by the time we returned, he had been taken back to the Upper East Region. Then, just recently, we received the phone call we had been praying for. One of David’s cousins had brought him back after learning that he was being mistreated. At just 13 years old, David had been out of school for years and was being made to work on farms instead. Today, David is finally back. He may be behind in school, but he is not behind in potential. We are determined to help him catch up, heal, and build the future he deserves. As we prepare to support David’s return to school, he will need school fees, uniforms, books, stationery, personal items, counselling, and the care every child deserves to thrive. If David’s story has touched your heart and you would like to help him, we’d be very grateful for your support. Every contribution will go towards helping him rebuild his life and continue his education. Because every child deserves a chance. And at For The Future Ghana, we refuse to give up on children who need our help the most. If you’d like to support David, please send me a DM. 🙏🏽

This neighborhood has an older German Shepherd who was known to roam the neighborhood. He disappeared for awhile until he showed up at this man’s house. “You came back, where were you?" Probably the first time he felt like someone cared. He had a bad open wound on him. This man took him in, fed him, sheltered him, and took him to the vet who cared for his wound. He even posted pictures of him on social media trying to find his owner. No luck. So, he kept him and has given him care, shelter and a fighting chance and most importantly, a love. ❤️ You are a hero sir. Thank for giving him a home. Would you take a stray dog in like this if he showed up at your house ? I would!

We are still talking about babies - who should be growing, laughing, and discovering the world - that are instead just fighting to survive. Like Suhaib who is 7 months old, but looks like a newborn. Support here: Born prematurely with hydrocephalus amid Gaza’s collapsing healthcare system, he has been denied the basic care every child deserves. Now, he is suffering from severe, life-threatening malnutrition. Doctors have warned his mother that he may not live to see his first birthday. No parent should ever have to hear those words. Every day of delayed care costs him strength he cannot afford to lose. Here his mother is pleading for compassion and for humanity. While Suhaib needs medical support well past what The Sameer Project can offer, we can provide him with his nutritional requirements, necessities like diapers, and other urgent medical needs that he has. We can assist in making him stronger so that he can fight through the tough condition he has been facing since entering ther world. We can also provide his tired mother some relief. Donate to our Medical Campaign in our profile which allows us to care for Suhaib and similar cases in need: Other ways to donate include: (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "Medical") (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "Medical")

ICE detain boy with Down syndrome—family has no idea where he is. He is non verbal & hearing impaired—cannot advocate for himself. Requires specific medication for epileptic seizures. "Please help find him. His family is desperate—they don’t know where he is or if he's safe." His mother says she needs to be with him or he cannot survive on his own. "Please tell me where my son is. And if they are going to deport him, then deport me with him. He cannot take care of himself or be alone." Yeison Saúl Menjívar Portillo was detained in the Bridge City suburb of New Orleans, Louisiana. Alejandra doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.

Not a fan of the late Ram Jethmalani ji but he correctly read both RaGa & SuSu On RaGa : I will not employ him even as a clerk On SuSu: This diseased insect cannot be disinfected, he has to be crushed & carefully incinerated, it is not enough to throw him in the gutter. That is his natural habitat, There he will grow & flourish"

Sharing for Kingston. To save his life. “Kingston means "king's town" ... but his reality couldn't be further from that. Instead of a kingdom, he has a kennel. Instead of a family, he has people who walk past him. Every single day. Kingston is only one year old. Just a baby. And he is the sweetest boy. Gentle, loving, playful, and so full of love to give. He is dog friendly, amazing with kids, and everything about him says "perfect family dog." Right now, Kingston is on the urgent list. And somehow... not one person has ever stopped to meet him. Not one person has ever asked to take Kingston out of his kennel. They walk by while he spins, jumps, and moves nonstop. They see chaos. They don't see stress. They don't see fear. They don't see a young dog losing his mind in an overwhelming environment. This is not excitement. This is kennel stress. This is what happens when a loving, energetic dog is trapped behind bars with nowhere to go and no one to turn to. If someone would just stop. If someone would just ask to meet him. They would see the real Kingston. Take him outside and he softens. A sweet, gentle, playful boy who loves fetch and proudly brings the ball back, dropping it right at your feet every time. A dog who wants to be close. A dog who wants to belong. He is sweet. He is gentle. He is playful. And, he does not deserve to be invisible. We don't know how Kingston is with cats. But we do know he deserves a home, a family, and a life that finally matches his name. He is running out of time. This is who he is!! Please stop scrolling. Please share Kingston. Please help him be seen.” 🙏 I shared this post from @ Sharing Lov3 on Tik Tok in hopes it helps Kingston be seen and be saved. Details on Kingston in the comments.

This painting shows the most heartbreaking reunion in all of literature. To understand it, you have to know who the dog is... His name is Argos, and he belongs to Ulysses, the Greek hero also known as Odysseus. Before Ulysses sailed away to fight in the Trojan War, he had raised Argos from a puppy, a fast and beautiful hunting dog. Then the war called, and Ulysses left. He would not come home for twenty years. When Ulysses finally set foot on his own island again, he came in disguise, dressed as a beggar, so that no one would know him. His house was full of men trying to steal his wife and his kingdom. To survive, he had to remain a stranger in his own home. No one recognized him. Not his loyal servants. Not the people who had known him all his life. But lying in the dirt by the gate, old and forgotten, covered in ticks, too weak to stand, was a dog. Argos had waited twenty years. And the moment he saw him, he knew. He was the only one. Nearly blind, half dead, he lifted his head and pricked up his ears, and he wagged his tail for the master he had never stopped waiting for. Ulysses saw him. And because he was in disguise, surrounded by enemies, he could not run to him, could not kneel down, could not say his name. He could only look at his old friend and, turning his face away so no one would see, let a single tear fall. And then, in Homer's own words, "the dark shadow of death closed down on Argos' eyes, the instant he had seen Odysseus, twenty years away." He had held on to life for one reason only: he was waiting to see him come home. And the moment he did, he could finally let go... It is such a beautiful painting, and the look on that dog's face is so universal, so instantly understood by anyone who has ever loved and waited, that it is enough to bring a grown man to tears.

We have shared the struggles of Ibrahim who is living with pemphigus vulgaris, a chronic autoimmune disease that causes painful blisters and open sores across his skin. Every movement is a battle with pain. In Gaza, the treatment he needs is extremely limited. If Ibrahim is not hospitalized, he cannot receive the medication that keeps his condition from flaring up out of control. He wants to be in his tent, with his children, receiving care from his family. And what he really wants and what he really needs urgently is treatment abroad. Until that becomes possible, The Sameer Project will support him with medication to aid him with his daily battle. On March 4 we provided Ibrahim with a week’s worth of medication and ointments and a hygiene kit for a total of $182 after commission. This is one of the most expensive medical cases we have taken on since he will need the treatment weekly, and we cannot do it alone. Please help us stand with Ibrahim and other patients that need additional support by donating to our Medical Campaign. Other ways to donate include: (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "Medical") (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "Medical")

Many people tagged me in a viral video of this American man, who has been widely referred to as the "Mzungu Chokoraa," claiming that he had been abandoned and was living on the streets. After I shared the video, his wife reached out to me and requested that I visit him to understand the true situation. This evening, I met him and his family, and I learned that he is not homeless. He is a married man, a father of five children, and has been living with his family in Texas, USA. According to his family, he has bipolar disorder, and his condition became worse after the passing of his mother. He is currently under medical care and takes prescribed medication. The family explained that during some episodes of his illness, he may leave home and wander the streets. This has led many people to believe that he is homeless, which is not true. They also shared that he has a passion for recycling and environmental conservation, which is why he is sometimes seen collecting recyclable materials or around dumpsites. I would like to clarify to the general public that this man is not homeless. He has a loving family that cares deeply for him. When you see him on the streets, please do not judge or discriminate against him. Instead, treat him with dignity, kindness, and respect, knowing that he is living with a mental health condition. The family has also appealed to the public not to buy him alcohol or give him weed, as both can interfere with his prescribed medication and may seriously affect his health. Let us replace stigma with understanding and compassion. Mental health conditions can affect anyone, and those living with them deserve our support, respect, and humanity.

West's favored Zelensky replacement Zaluzhny: "When I die, I will make my son swear that he will get both the barn and the garden back. And he will also swear to me that if he cannot do this, he will force his son to do it, and he will swear to him that his son will take back everything that was taken from us as a result of this." Zaluzhny has two adult daughters. He does not have a son.

I've got enough experience doing this to know that it's probably going to be weeks rather than months for Mr. Atlas. Our wonderful house dog at Happy Doggo has had two huge operations and we've given him every chance imaginable. I've just noticed in the past few days that his energy levels have dropped. He's taken an extra hour in his bed. He's having longer lounges on the couch. His energy has dipped and his eyes are just that little bit cloudy. that has all been confirmed by blood work and lots of different tests. We are a rescue and ultimately we're judged on how many dogs we can save. I always knew that it would be a quality of life thing with Atlas and that ultimately we would not be able to give him a long life. I do happen to believe, though, that the work we do in making these dogs happy at the end of their lives is just as important as anything else we do at scale. Atlas is still at that stage where he has great spurts of energy and goes on walks and looks for attention from all his favorite humans. We'll wrap him up in cotton wool, pamper him, shower him in love and get him all the meds he can have. No stone will go unturned to make sure Atlas continues to live his dream life while he can. I always say that dogs live in the moment. Atlas can't remember his horrid times on the streets or his massive tumor that he carried around for years. All he knows is the love, attention, great food, and wonderful life he will have today. Every other day will be a bonus and we’ll be with him every step of the way ❤️
