Nothing can stop Ukrainian kids from loving their cats!

Four out of five Ukrainian pet families see their animals as family members and say they are willing to sacrifice and even risk their lives to keep their family together…. and that of course include their cats!

Among the millions of Ukrainian refugees there are many innocent children who had to leave their homes, their toys, their schools and their friends behind but some of them got to keep what they love most: their kitties.

Loving children see their kitties as their equals; ‘little people’ who need protection to live safely and happily away from war.

These photos show the beautiful bond between some Ukrainian young refugees and their beloved cats.
