1. In Morocco, Hind has run out of kibble to feed the dogs at her shelter and those she cares for on the streets: they're going to starve!
"Ten days ago, our stock of kibble ran out. Since then, the dogs at the shelter have been surviving on leftover food. It's even more difficult for the street dogs, who we can't feed at all at the moment. The situation is becoming increasingly critical, and their appearance is changing: they lose weight in a short space of time, and their physical weakness is becoming more marked. I'm even noticing that illnesses linked to malnutrition are beginning to appear.
The effects are also felt in their behavior. Fights between the dogs are on the increase, aggravated by their state of weakness and frustration. Before, these fights were rare; today, they've become commonplace. All my hopes now rest on this campaign of kibble. There's nothing artificial about this emergency... In the absence of this basic food, lives deteriorate day after day, and the survival of the dogs is at stake!"
2. Both in the shelter and on the streets, malnutrition and the frequency of fights are skyrocketing... Hind fears for the weakest ones!
"The tensions within the shelter are palpable. Fights over remaining resources are multiplying and becoming increasingly violent. Without this kibble delivery, I fear that the cohabitation between the dogs will quickly become unbearable... Not to mention the impact on their health, which is becoming increasingly visible. I fear that their immunity will weaken to the point of making vaccines ineffective, or even that new serious pathologies will appear.
For street dogs, the consequences are just as serious. Without my regular distribution of kibble, they are forced to scavenge and eat all kinds of unsuitable food. Their health is greatly affected, and their behavior changes. They venture further and further afield in search of food, and may soon become more aggressive towards humans. What's more, if the kibble shortage persists, the bond of trust I've taken so long to establish with them will be broken, making it even more difficult to catch them for care and vaccinations...
I fear that this shortage will seal a tragic fate for all the animals that depend on me! It's not just lives that are at stake, but a whole chain of events that will be triggered if this urgent need for kibble is not met!"
3. All attempts to obtain kibble have failed and existing debts prevent any restock: Hind has reached a dead end!
"All the leads I've followed to obtain kibble have proved fruitless. I've asked the local authorities for help, to no avail. I've also appealed to NGOs and tried to collaborate with other shelters, but all of them are short of resources or in a critical situation.
Even the Moroccan diaspora, solicited in the hope of a surge of solidarity, has failed to provide the expected support. As for the local companies to whom I sent detailed letters about our urgent need for kibble, none were able to contribute. I even tried to negotiate a deferred payment with our kibble supplier, but my existing debts blocked this possibility...
To make matters worse, a storm hit the shelter a few days ago, causing damage and additional costs, which are already putting a strain on a tight budget... One setback follows another, and I can't help thinking of the impact all this will have on the dogs. Every day that goes by without a viable solution for obtaining kibble pushes us closer to the edge..."
4. Hind isn't asking for money, only kibble to prevent the dogs from starving.
"The ability to keep the shelter operational is on a knife edge, mainly because of the impending shortage of kibble. The work I do for these abandoned dogs falters dangerously without this essential element. Unpaid charges and veterinary debts are piling up, further stretching the limits of what I can achieve here.
The absence of kibble cripples every aspect of the shelter and, most tragically, destroys the long-term rehabilitation prospects for these dogs. Without kibble, I can't concentrate on other essential needs such as medical care, vaccinations or socialization. What's more, adoption becomes unlikely if the dogs are not well fed and in good health...
The limits of our action become cruelly apparent when the kibble runs out. This vicious circle confines us to a dead end, a situation where the shelter becomes a purgatory rather than a springboard to a new life!"
5. Many follow Hind's struggle but few are willing to help; exacerbating her sense of isolation and lack of means.
"The days in the shelter are trying, constantly bringing new emergencies. Dogs in distress, sometimes sick or injured, arrive at our doors, and each time, the responsibility I feel for these fragile lives grows. This would be difficult enough on its own, but the situation is made even more tense by the lack of grants and resources.
It's a heavy burden to bear. Decisions about who to help first are never taken lightly, and they stay with me long after the lights go out and the shelter falls asleep. The irony is that even though I sense the world is watching, few step forward to help. This reinforces the loneliness of our mission, a mission already complex and full of obstacles..."
6. If this campaign succeeds, Hind will not receive any money but 1700 kg of kibble, delivered from Animal Webaction's logistic platform in Morocco.
Animal Webaction has a logistic platform in Morocco, which allows us to intervene quickly and deliver kibble.

8. In Morocco, donors are rare, and there are no foundations or subsidies… It is very difficult to find funding for kibble, many cats are left starving in the street!
