Please take a few minutes to watch this "Raw and Unfiltered" video from Chantelle Paws R Us: SA. ๐๐๐๐ is why we do what we do. They cannot continue to help animals in need without our support.
The humans at Paws R Us: SA - as one example, have over 70 hopeful eyes and wagging tails that depend on them daily for food, for shelter, for protection, these dogs depend on these incredible humans to not give up, to find a way, to not give in to exhaustion or hopelessness. These animals rely on them to not give up hope on finding each of them a home, where they will finally know what being part of a family and unconditional love feel like.
We may not all have the courage to do what those in animal rescue do, we may not be willing to give up our luxuries like they do, we may not be willing to give all of our spare time like they do, we may not be willing to be called out at all hours of the day, night, weekend to rescue a dog running on the highway, or an abandoned litter of kittens or two starving dogs, left behind when the family moved homes. But, we can ALL do something to help, something to lighten the heavy burden that animal rescuers carry every single day.
We can all afford R50 a month, we can all sacrifice that one Gin & Tonic, that one take-away, that one nail polish.
If we all gave as little as R50 a month to whichever animal shelter we support, it would be ๐๐๐
๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ for these shelters and the thousands of animals they rescue. Knowing that they can rely on that R50/R100/R200 every month could just be the life line they need, that bit of hope that says "don't give up, keep going".
Please, let us not stick our heads in the sand, let us not say "there is nothing I can do", let us not hope someone else will do it. If all of us animal lovers gave just a little each, the world of animal rescue would change. And we would be changed too, we would know that we made a difference in this crazy world, that although we cannot control the things that are happening around us, we can decide to make a positive impact, we can decide that our lives will matter, we can decide to give hope, where it is needed most๐โฅ๏ธ
