About the Virtual Adoption

If you would like to help one of our animals, but don't have the opportunity to adopt yet, become a virtual adopter!

Choose a dog on our website, or on our Facebook or Instagram page and send us an email about your virtual adoption intention and which of our animals you want to help.

Please send us your details (phone number, email address, which one is better in terms of reaching you, etc.) and how long you want to support your chosen animal.

After that, we will display your name as a virtual adopter on Facebook, Instagram and our website (with your permission).

Your support would cover the care, medical treatment and sterilization of the dog for as long as you are able to do so. Feel free to come visit and walk the chosen dog if you have the time! They love meeting their virtual adopters.

If we find your virtually adopted dog a home, we will notify you immediately. Then, if you are still able to help a dog in our care, you can become the virtual adopter of another dog that is still looking for an owner.

We are happy to discuss the details with you over the phone or in person. We look forward to hearing from you.

About Us

Unfortunately, just like in other cities in Hungary, Kisvárda also has a lot of stray, homeless dogs and cats. Our main goal is to create a well managed animal shelter, where the physical and mental rehabilitation of stray and abandoned animals can take place, until suitable new owners are found for them.

In addition to work and family, we dedicate our free time to caring for and rescuing animals. We are currently keeping the animals in a temporary facility offered by the Municipality of Kisvárda, and are taking care of close to 400 dogs.

We are constantly waiting for animal lovers like us to apply for volunteer work. Our dogs always need a little petting and walking. You can help feed the animals and improve their conditions.

We also welcome the help of experienced professionals (mason, carpenter, welder, etc.) who would like to support our animals in need.

About Fostering

Open your home to foster an animal in need. If you might not be ready to adopt an animal as it is a long-term commitment, you could consider fostering one.

Many people don't realize that fostering an animal can actually save lives. You will help save the life of the pet you are temporarily taking into your home with you until we are able to find a forever home for him/her.

By stepping up and helping this animal, you will be making an amazing contribution to our rescue as we cannot do our work without the help of all the foster home volunteers.

Our organization will provide you with the food and medication (if needed) of that animal. If the animal needs medication, we would explain how it needs to be administered. Vet appointments could be arranged that either we take the animal to the vet office or if you wish to help us with that, you could take the animal to our vet. All medical bills, of course, would be covered by us. We would ask you to let us know immediately if you notice something with the animal in your care that might require medical attention.

It is important to make sure that if you do have your own animals while fostering, that they are up-to-date with their vaccines.

Would you like to become a foster family? Please just fill out this form and we will get back to you!

Our Virtually Adopted Dogs

Items You May Donate

Our organization depends solely on public donations

You might wish to make some more space at home during spring cleaning and get rid of items you or your pets might not use. Please think of us if you have items that are still in good condition or if you wish to purchase something new for us that our animals might need. If you would prefer offering help in other ways, please visit our Donate page

Food Items you may donate:



  • Dry food and canned food for puppies and adult dogs
  • Dry food and canned food for kittens and adult cats
  • A gentle, dietary, dry diet for sick and obese dogs or cats
  • Ready meals
  • Raw meat

Please consider us when you are thinking of donating to an animal rescue.

We take in animals from local and out of province animal rescues and shelters where they have difficulty finding a home. We pull animals from euthanasia lists where the animals have no other choice than us for getting a chance to live. We take in stray animals from the streets as there are so many that have been abandoned and are without a home.

The daily care of our animals as well as their medical expenses and our transportation costs can go pretty high in saving all of the animals in our care. So every dollar you donate will go a long way to help the animals in our care.

Thank you for your support!
