Another 40,000 pounds of food has been delivered to feed hungry cats and dogs in Odesa, Ukraine. Their grateful faces say it all:

The PETA Germany rescue team brought another 120 cats and dogs out of Ukraine to safety over the weekend. Some of them had been left locked inside apartments and houses when their families fled the war. Now they are safe and fed, have been checked by veterinarians, and are receiving lots of love after their long, exhausting journey:

Many of the animals rescued from Ukraine in the past three weeks are now in Germany and Austria, far away from the war. Lots of them have already found new permanent homes, and the rest will be ready to be adopted very soon. To date, PETA entities have taken more than 740 animals out of war-torn Ukraine and delivered 240,000 pounds of desperately needed food within the country.
