We're meant to help people in an emergency, but what's changed is now people are in emergency every single month because the income they have is nowhere near covering the actual costs that it would take to live their life.

Ludovic has been granted a very low bond! Thank you so much for all of the supporters. We had around 20 people in the court room and over 20 more supporting online. The judge was clearly moved. Everything he said was in favor of Ludovic. We could not have done this all without you!

Animals don't vote. The only room they don't like is the euthanasia room at a shelter. They are completely at the mercy of us, and they have no voice of their own.
