The pain of a desperate, suffering mother
We can not describe in words the suffering of a mother who’s babies were taken away from her soon after she gave birth and most probably were killed.
Rest în peace our dear GINA
Her story is the same as the one of many abandoned and unwanted souls. She reached to us 9 years ago, when we were announced that at a military facility în Bucharest, where she found shelter, it was decided her faith, to be shot because she was old and cranky.
AN EMERGENCY!

A poor soul belonging to no one
At first sight, we didn’t know what kind of animal we had in front of us; he looked that awful, without fur and almost completely destroyed. You couldn’t believe that he was still

She was left with three legs
This small and sweet kitty suffered an accident a long time ago, and only she knows how much she’s suffered: her leg showing bones was already gangrened, and couldn’t be saved. She is now at the clinic and waiting to recuperate, since she knows that she will be welcomed with love at the APAM Sanctuary.
A little ball of fur with sad eyes
We keep asking ourselves and cannot understand how someone could abandon this little soul as small as a little ball. Have they never asked themselves how this little thing ccoul survive

There was a picture circulating on social media featuring a female dog which couldn’t walk and it turned out this poor innocent soul was hit by multiple cars passing indifferently through an area where people abandon animals deemed as useless objects.

Seriously injured
We don’t know for how long these horrors will continue in this country! How long will shameless and heartless people and drivers make the animals suffer! We won’t probably find an answer in our desperation, that of the few who protect and help these little creatures and find them a place on this earth which belongs to them as well as to us.
We are very upset and without zeal to do anything anymore in this country, since we are struggling in vain, and it seems we are putting things into a bottomless pit.
Nearly frozen, under a piece of tin sheet!
This new year isn’t showing signs of happiness for us, since we are simply overwhelmed with phone calls, messages and cries for help. Outside, the blizzard and freezing temperatures which would make life difficult without a roof over one’s head! However, this doesn’t stop those bipeds without a heart to throw their unwanted animals into the street. Nothing in this world ever stops them!
Dog attacked by a pitbull
A beast with a human face has been training his pitbull to attack cats and other helpless dogs: the video has circulated on all social networks and it’s terrible, so we did not want to share it here, in order to avoid creating more shock than we have already felt ourselves.

They were thrown out to die

A desperate appeal for saving a life

Activity Report
We wanted to give you a short activity report for the year 2015. Perhaps we could have done even more for the animals, but as you well know, we are always hindered by the lack of financial means, which keeps ups from spending too much. We have over 100 animals in our carecat home, and additionally, we have others in foster care or on the streets, which we help as well.

Injured and left to die in agony
It’s night, on the road car after car is passing by, one of them has hit a puppy but never mind, the driver is driving away without a bit of remorse, not to think of what’s worse: the possibility that he has been hit on purpose, he, this soul who doesn’t belong to anybody is lying there in the dark
Scared, beaten and starved
This is how an old female dog used to live on the street after she had been probably a lifetime useful to someone who can’t be called a human! To abandon a soul on the street who needs so much care and affection now that she has reached an old

He was found by the road, between to towns, with serious wounds!!. We are desperate because we have no room here; each place is taken by a little soul.

Fifteen years ago, we found you in an oily pit, and you became our child. We called you Diesel, since you so miraculously survived that place full of terror.

We only ask that you tell all the other
