Billy is a very special dog with a
heartbreaking past. He was
brought to us bloody and beaten,
starving, and had just been
attacked with a machete across
his face and nose. He was in
such bad shape he barely even
had a nose. Dr Flavi was able to
help Billy and thanks to our
dedicated team of volunteers and
staff, Billy was given all the love
and attention he deserved.
It’s a joy to have witnessed his
transformation to the happy,
friendly and loving fellow he is
now. However, he is extremely
timid and wary of strangers. Due
to his traumatic history, Billy
will remain with us at his
forever ZAASO home, and is in
need of your gift of sponsorship.
A street cat with striking blue
eyes, Sinatra was sterilized
by ZAASO. Came the time to
release him, he point-blank
refused. He wouldn’t get out
of the carrier, or he wouldn’t
get in it. Several attempts
later, we got the message.
Elvis is an exceptionally friendly, sweet and endearing fellow. Dropped off at our gate with nothing – no explanation and nobody around – the poor dog was malnourished and covered from head to toe in ticks. Despite his condition, Elvis greeted us with a wagging tail and a trusting look. Today, he is in excellent health, and we’re happy to finally give him the care every dog deserves.

Rescued together, theirs is a love story with a difficult beginning, and yet happy ending. They endured abusive conditions for years - Eric still has the scar around his neck from the tight chains that were bound around him. In an attempt to protect Amina, Eric would stand in front of her, allowing himself to receive the worst of the beatings. If that’s not love, then what is?
Eric and Amina now live together happily at ZAASO. Despite their past, they are a people-loving duo with gentle and sweet personalities. Nevertheless, due to their traumatic history, they are not available for adoption but they are in need of sponsors.
Milo is one of those cats that just
can’t get enough attention. He
loves people and likes to be best
friends with everyone he meets.
He was brought to us with a
severely burned front leg, and our
only option was to amputate.
Thankfully, this certainly didn’t
diminish his spirit or his large
personality, and he is doing great
on three legs. Sadly, Milo’s
owners refused to take him back
after he lost his leg. This resilient
cat is now a part of our ZAASO
family and is in need of
sponsorship.
Meet Sarah. She arrived only a few
days ago at ZAASO, brought by
children who said she “wasn’t well”.
Besides malnutrition, the state of
her body showed poorly healed cuts
and scarring. It was quickly
ascertained from the kids that
Sarah was used as a fighting dog.
She was utterly terrified and could
barely walk, so badly was she
trembling with fear. Our volunteer
Sarah (after whom she is named)
was so moved, she took the
trembling dog into her care. We
bought Sarah from the kids;
probably not the best policy, but we
couldn’t face sending her back to
where she came from.
ZAASO cares about all animals. Some are
healthy and loved and only need our vet’s
attention from time to time, others are
abandoned or rescues.
Our “orphans” are those who cannot be rehomed;
trauma and abuse count for the overwhelming
majority of these. Fortunately, some of our
permanent residents are sponsored or co-sponsored,
but our “orphans” are those who are not, and who are
in need of a caring sponsor or sponsors.
Sponsorship is for food, shelter & medical care.
Suggested amount per month:
$70 for orphan dog
$50 for orphan kitty
$50 for orphan horse
Any funds remaining are used for the care of the
many rescues that come to ZAASO.
Our latest arrival a few days ago is tiny Sikio (right).
She was found being drowned in a ditch. When she’s
healthy and old enough, we will look to home her.
