8 Animals. A Failing Building. A February 28 Deadline.

Donation protected
Eight rescue animals lose their home on February 28.
€38,000 secures a legal exit from a hostile lease and stops eviction.
Without it, five Great Pyrenees and three cats are displaced.
If you can’t donate, sharing is truly lifesaving.

For over a year, I’ve cared for these animals independently while fighting a landlord who refuses to fix a failing roof that leaks rainwater into our living space. Legal remedies failed. Temporary repairs failed. Now he is threatening eviction.

Over the last 18 months, I pulled 23 dogs and cats from abandonment and medical neglect. Mange. Parasites. Parvo. Nineteen survived and found homes.

Eight remain here because no one else would take them.

They are my family now. And we are out of time.

What the funds secure:

Minimum to prevent displacement (by Feb 28): €38,000 (legal exit + obligations)

Full stabilization goal once the property is secured: another 13k equals €51,000 total
(internal structural repair + roof repair and winter vet buffer)

If we reach this goal:
The sanctuary stays intact. The landlord chapter ends. These animals keep the only stable home they’ve known.

If we do not:
Eviction proceedings move forward, and I have nowhere safe to take them.

Between rent, utilities, and feeding 8 animals, we spend approximately €2,500 per month on basic structural upkeep and food alone. That does not include veterinary emergencies, transportation, or daily living expenses.

This is not a rescue plea.

This is about turning survival into permanence.

This campaign has received public support from:
Samuel Weidenhofer (journalist and humanitarian)
Kristin Bauer (actress, True Blood)
David Labrava (actor, Sons of Anarchy)
Davey Oberlin (musician, Korn, Five Finger Death Punch, All the Damn Vampires)
Paulina Pinsky (author)
Peter Majerle (MinnPost journalist)

They reviewed the situation and spoke publicly. You can watch their messages below.


The other videos being uploaded soon.
All video messages were recorded voluntarily after reviewing the situation.

The number is real.
The deadline is real.
The support is now visible.

I am not asking to be rescued. I am asking to close this chapter correctly.
Thank you for stepping in.
