A woman has revealed how she travelled to war-torn Ukraine with the intention of helping refugees cross the border into Poland, but 'fell in love' with helping the 'forgotten animals of war'.
Wendy Lloyd, from Harborne, south-west Birmingham, travelled to Ukraine to join the other brave Brits helping refugees cross the border into Poland from Ukraine, but while she was in a makeshift animal shelter in the mountains around Kyiv, Wendy met Rocket.
It was then, when meeting the three-legged cat, that Wendy began wondering how she could help the other pets that had been left behind as their owners fled Vladimir Putin 's wrath, reports Birmingham Live.
