The new animal shelter has started.

August 12th, 2012

The new animal shelter has started.
Cats are moving to the new shelter. It takes a time but it’s getting better and better, with help from the volunteers.

I say “volunteer”, but it can be a man from a family who received our cats doing heavy work, or a tall veterinarian from TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital doing something that requires height, etc. Today a family who received our cats came to help us. They brought a cat tower which they don’t use anymore. The shelter room is becoming more and more fun.

Abandoned lives in the off-limits area.

July 31st, 2012

The landscapes in off-limits areas are different, depending on the area. I was utterly dejected when I saw the sight after Tsunami.

Time goes by and this is the second summer after the disaster.

The houses are covered by weeds,

But there are so many beautiful flowers.

The flowers tell me “There was a house here. There was a peaceful life here.”

It is close to the ocean.

The houses are broken or completely gone.

In this afflicted area, I saw a very thin cat. How hungry and how lonely. I felt a lump in my throat seeing such sight after the Tsunami.

“HELP!”. I can hear the silent voice. I have to go.

Rescue activity in Fukushima continue

July 28th, 2012

I visit the afflicted area in Fukushima every month to leave food and do rescue activity. I can’t abandon these lives, still bearing up under hard circumstances. I am not confident about my health, mental or otherwise. But as long as I can move, I won’t let them down. Fortunately I am not alone. All of you support helps me carry on.

Your donation is used for the highway tolls, gas, and necessary materials. For one trip, it cost at least 50,000 yen per car. I can’t do this rescue activity alone. I could not have come this far, or done this much, without all of your support. Your contributions have empowered me. I will continue to do anything that I can do to relieve the suffering of these endangered lives.

It is so hard now. I do my best each time, but now I worry about the closing of the off limits area. I want to rescue as many as I can, even if that's just one. Whether it's wild cats or house cats, I don’t want to let them die in such miserable circumst
ances.

I don’t know how many times I'll have to go to Fukushima and return. I don’t want to complain, but I am not so strong. In order to do the rescue activity in Fukushima, take care of the rescued pets, manage the TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital and the new animal shelter, I remain all worked up, maintaining a constant high tension level.

I do my best. Please support us and animals.
                             
However much they "decontaminate", how safe can this really be?

Currently off-limits, Naraha-machi will be opened soon. It takes about 3-4 hours from Tokyo or Kanagawa. I hope the owners and volunteers will go into Naraha-machi to rescue the pets when it is opened up.

About Us

Message from Akiko Yui, President and Founder of TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital
I believe that helping animals in need, existing in symbiosis with animals, and fostering a loving heart lead to an improvement in one’s character of kindness and generosity. The killing of animals due to decisions made by administration goes against my firm belief in preventing cruelty to animals. Animal Rescue Fund’s most important goal is to reduce the number of animals killed in Japan to zero by urging administration to change, reform, and improve the prevention of cruelty to animals. In order to reduce the number of animals in need, we work to raise awareness and support for the importance of sterilization operations. Each year, we spay and neuter more than 1000 stray cats. We are always putting animals up for adoption to help those lives already born in finding a loving home.

TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital:
We first opened our TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital in February of 2011 in an effort to make our dream a reality - to lower the number of dogs and cats killed in Japan to zero. At our hospital, we spay and neuter cats to reduce the number of unfortunate stray cats. Our hospital strives to help unfortunate animals in need of medical care.
The lives of numerous pets and livestock were lost as a result of the unprecedented earthquake and tsunami that occurred in Japan on March 11th 2011 and the radiation disaster caused by the stricken Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Animal Rescue Fund goes directly to the 20km evacuation zone around the stricken Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant to rescue animals.
Animal Rescue Fund is based in Kanagawa Prefecture’s TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital. Therefore, the animals that we rescue from Fukushima Prefecture are brought to TNR Japan Animal Welfare Hospital located in Kanagawa Prefecture. Here, the rescued animals receive medical care and are returned to their owners or are put up for adoption.
We also work in urging the government and administration of Japan to support the protection of animals in need.
