He said: “All the cats are very stressed, the journey from Lviv is one day and we crossed the border with a diplomatic pass but the queue from Ukraine was very long. “We are preparing the animals for an adoption process. “We bought two cars and paid £12,500 for one.“Sometimes the animals which are in very poor condition will be with us for two or three months.” This comes after the internet went wild for a hero dog helping the Ukrainian military in their fight against Russia.
