Mohammad Alaa Aljaleel went to Kafr Nabl, a Syrian town that had lately been the target of bombings, with the express purpose of rescuing abandoned kittens.
Many locals were able to evacuate to safety before the bombardment started, but regrettably some dogs were left behind.
Aljaleel’s friend and fellow cat enthusiast Alessandra Abidin told The Dodo, “It isn’t simple to take a pet with you when you have to relocate quickly and carry all your possessions with you.
Aljaleel, also known as the “Cat Man of Aleppo,” made the decision to go to the city knowing how devastated many were to have to leave their pets behind.
In this most recent rescue in Kafr Nabl, according to Abidin, feral cats and former pets came together to prowl the streets in a large colony.
Some of them came up to the group, according to Abidin. “They most likely knew we had food. It was simple to catch these. We set up food-filled trap cages for others to enter. It’s not an easy task. To open the cage doors, we must wait close by.
The team has so far transported 83 cats and kittens to the House of Cats Ernesto after saving them.
Three meals a day, access to clean water, and everyone’s care are guaranteed at Ernesto’s Paradise, according to Abidin. They ought should become acclimated quite soon.
Despite the continuous danger, the crew will continue to visit Kafr Nabl every day in order to save additional cats, according to Abidin.
