Donate online at The Black Dog Rescue
In Lviv, a city in western Ukraine, the owners of the Cat Café refuse to leave their business so their felines are not left behind. According to a message posted on their Facebook page, they’re also donating 20 percent of all checks to the Ukrainian army. https://www.facebook.com/catcafelviv
