💔 Meet Purrl - a 2-yr-old cat found clinging to life. Emaciated, jaundiced & barely alive, she still purred when touched.

Thanks to our ROLDA Hero Simona, she’s fighting through infections & organ damage. Fragile, but every small step forward gives us hope.

Both are happy, healthy, and so loved in their forever homes.

Every year, over 2.6 million puppies come from illegal puppy mills.

💔 We must break this cycle.
✔️ Say no to puppy mills
✔️ Say no to unethical online breeding
✔️ Adopt. Foster. Share. Support

With your help, we can give them a second chance and stop the suffering at its source.

Mira spent years locked in a detention centre, sick and untreated. She was days from being put down, until our ROLDA Hero stepped in. ❤️‍🩹

Now she’s safe, healing, and finally free from pain.

We’re able to act fast in times of crisis thanks to our network. We’ve helped save animals displaced by conflict, funded by donors around the world. 💙💛

ROLDA proves that borders don’t matter when it comes to compassion. Together, we’re rewriting what international animal welfare can look like.

ROLDA | Rescuing strays, changing lives 💙 @rolda.bsky.social · Jul 8

Meanwhile, our core rescue work happens in Romania—where our shelter teams care for hundreds of animals each day, offer medical treatment, and respond to emergencies.

They’re the heart of it all. ❤️🐶

ROLDA USA, ROLDA UK, and ROLDA Australia help us raise awareness and secure vital funding. Each branch is led by passionate advocates who champion the same cause, tailored to their communities. 🇷🇴🇬🇧🇺🇸🇦🇺

ROLDA | Rescuing strays, changing lives 💙 @rolda.bsky.social · Jul 8

It all started in Romania, born out of the urgent need to help and one woman’s determination to do so.

But we realized that local action alone wasn’t enough. So, we built partnerships with adopters, shelters, and supporters in countries like the US, UK, and Australia. That changed everything.

Hit by a car and then shot. 💔 Masyanya can’t walk, but she’s still fighting, and she’s not alone.

Now in foster care, she’s getting the love and care she needs.
