Last month, a Fort Collins veterinarian was among the countless people stepping up to help make that possible, from the paperwork side to make sure the animals are healthy., a nonprofit that provides veterinary care to the pets of those experiencing homelessness and those at risk of experiencing homelessness.
“I realized that these Ukraine refugees were very similar in some ways to the folks that we work with,” Geller said. “It’s women and children and their suitcases and they’re dragging their pets.” “The pets were pretty healthy, and the people were pretty healthy also,” Geller said. “There was a lot of stress in the pets for sure, but I was really impressed with how stoic the women and children were in the face of a very tough, biting wind, tough conditions, and unknown futures.”
