Animals enrich our lives and love their owners unconditionally. Yet people and animals increasingly need help in times of need. In some cases, the tide has turned for the better thanks to donations from our readers.
Anyone who has shared their life with an animal knows the positive effects of this unique connection. Yes, it’s not always fun to leave your warm bed early in the morning on a cold, rainy Sunday to go for a walk. But once you look into your dog’s eyes and see this deep, incredible love in him, you are simply grateful for this living being.
It almost breaks your heart to think that a dog’s life is actually very short. It gets even worse when your beloved animal is also a partner who makes your life easier. Like ‘Tasha’, the black dog on today’s cover of the print edition. “Tasha’s support is essential for me to cope with my daily life,” says Anita Kolerus, whose eyesight is zero.
The eleven-year-old dog is trained as a guide dog for the blind and is also a psychological support for her wife. When “Tasha” was diagnosed with tongue cancer, Anita’s world collapsed. Although the chances of recovery were good, she simply could not afford the high costs.
Next to each other
But the animal-loving ‘Krone’ family intervened. Thanks to your donation, we were able to ensure that “Tasha” received the necessary chemotherapy and can hopefully continue to live next to Tanja for many years to come.
Just one of the countless sad stories that can have a happy ending thanks to your donation. It’s good to know that there is a being whose life you saved. Through a donation that warms your own heart.
Our animal corner “Krone” receives countless calls and emails every day. Usually it is bad news that, despite years of experience, still leaves us bewildered and even shed tears. As a team we advise how we can help.
From problem dog to family dog
The fate of “Rafi,” the mixed-breed dog in the photo below, also had a happy ending. He was rounded up as a street dog in Romania by ‘self-proclaimed’ animal rights activists and placed with a family in Vienna. But the male was understandably completely overwhelmed by this drastic change. He wasn’t used to suddenly living in an apartment. Because not everything that may be well-intentioned is actually beneficial for an animal.
He bit again and again – until the family didn’t even dare to come out of the bathroom and contacted us. We took over “Rafi” and he was slowly and carefully resocialized. After a few months we were able to take “Rafi” to his “forever home” with therapy.
A domestic cat had health problems and the family from Ukraine no longer wanted to keep him and his brother. Thanks to the animal corner “Krone”, he now has a wonderful life in Lower Austria. And the funnel after the necessary operation will soon be a thing of the past.
Every euro counts
Just a few examples of how we could help thanks to your support. Our club is unique! Because every donation euro goes to animal protection. The costs for the office and staff are fully borne by the Kronen Zeitung. I ask for your donation so that we can continue to help animals. It’s not the amount that counts, it’s the action. And the good you do always comes back.
Thank you very much, yours truly
