Thanks to the efforts of local residents, the cats were evacuated from a dangerous area. The animals were placed in a specially designed cage for this operation, ensuring their safe transportation.
Transport Across the Dnipro
The National Guard servicemen transported the cats by air across the Dnipro River under the wing of one of the heavy bombers. They covered a distance of over ten kilometers, demonstrating a high level of training and professionalism.
The Condition of the Cats and Their Future
All six cats that were evacuated remained alive and unharmed. Soon, they will find new homes, marking a new beginning for them after the challenging circumstances.
