Animal Webaction visited the site 18 February 2022 and confirms the situation described below.

1. In Romania, Luminita will soon run out of kibble to feed the 185 dogs at her shelter. They will starve if no one intervenes!

%%%

"Abandonments have increased a lot lately: on the streets, dogs are starving, and die of disease or abuse... I would like to save more dogs, but between the lack of kibble, the lack of money and the lack of space in the shelter, I don't have the resources to help them all. When I have enough kibble, I go and feed the street dogs, but as I have already halved the ration of the dogs in the shelter I can't help the strays anymore!

I don't get much help, only a few donations which are extremely rare and not enough to feed all the dogs, especially as adoptions have fallen drastically and abandonments are increasing. I have a few bags of kibble left today that will only last 2 days: my only hope of feeding my dogs is that this campaign succeeds!"

2. Fights over kibble often happen when dogs are hungry: this campaign is Luminita's last hope to avoid a massacre!

###

"Getting enough kibble for all the dogs is a real problem for me. I've already cut the kibble rations by half at the shelter, and have been doing so for several days now: I can see that the dogs are not eating enough and are starting to get restless... Their health depends on their food, if the situation lasts too long they will get sick or starve!

What also worries me a lot is that between the cold, the rain and the mud, winter is the most difficult time of the year for the dogs. Tired of living in this wet environment, they quickly become annoyed. I want to make sure they don't go hungry because they will become even more aggressive and fights will break out in the shelter! The situation is very worrying, I am glad that Animal Webaction and its community are willing to help us as this campaign is our last chance to prevent dogs from killing each other!"

3. Found almost dead hanging from a tree, Père Noël needs kibble to recover from his trauma!

###

"Two months ago, I found Père Noël hanging from a tree with a rope around his neck... He was almost dead! After rescuing him immediately, I did everything I could to help him heal and recover from his trauma. Unfortunately, he is also suffering from Lyme disease which has affected his kidneys and heart: if he is not treated and fed properly he has a great chance of dying. I desperately need kibble, I wish more than anything that he lives and can finally find a loving family to adopt him... !"

4. As donations dried up and debts mounted, Luminita found herself unable to buy kibble.

###

"As persistent as I am and as hard as I fight for dogs in distress, I am exhausted that the number of abandonments has doubled! There are too many stray dogs in distress to save, and so many other sick dogs to care for at the shelter... With the few donations I get, I can't cope on my own.

Before the pandemic, there were not so many dogs, I used to go to restaurants to get food and I received enough to feed them all. Now there are far too many for me to feed on my own!

Until today, the only solution I found was to go into debt with the vet and the kibble supplier, but this solution cannot continue, I might not be able to buy on credit any more! I'm trying as hard as I can to raise awareness among the local population via Facebook posts but it's not working: my only hope is to get the necessary kibble thanks to the success of this campaign!"

5. Luminita isn't asking for money, only kibble to prevent the dogs from starving!

###

"When the association was created in 2009, I simply wanted to help people sterilise animals. Then, in 2018, I decided to create a small shelter to take in the most fragile dogs. With the increase in abandonment, my shelter has since reached its maximum capacity... Unfortunately, there are still many dogs in danger on the streets, but I don't have the resources to save them!

I'm still very proud of what I've achieved, because I know I'm making a difference! My main achievement is to be able to save animals that would have no chance of surviving on the streets alone. I know that without my help, some dogs would be dead right now..."

6. If this campaign succeeds, Luminita will not receive any money but 3000 kg of kibble, delivered from Animal Webaction's logistic platform in Romania.

Animal Webaction has a logistics platform in Romania which enables us to intervene quickly and deliver kibbles.

7. Luminita and her few supporters have already done their utmost to get kibble: this campaign is her last hope...

"The financial situation of the association is very difficult, only a few people bring a bag of kibble from time to time, but this is very rare. In Romania, I have no collaboration, no partnership, and I can't find any adopters... Even if I try to organize online fundraising or post on Facebook to raise awareness about the treatment of stray dogs, it doesn't work. I can only do so much and I'm running out of options!

Fortunately, the French association "Les Anges de Lumi" supports me, but they too have reached the end of their means to help me feed the dogs. I'm counting on this campaign because it is vital, the lack of kibble would be a catastrophe! We absolutely need your help to continue to give these poor souls a second chance..."

8. Campaigns launched on Animal Webaction often fail

Liste des récoltes échouées

When a campaign fails, Animal Webaction cannot deliver the products. The beneficiary doesn't receive anything and the buyers are refunded. 

9. In Romania, it is difficult to find funds for kibbles, there are no aid, no grants, no foundation... Many abandoned dogs die alone in the streets, in complete indifference...​
