Rescue Animals in Samoa need ur help!

Donation protected
Hi All, my name is Sarah Truc Taalili and I currently live in Samoa, which is a small island country in the middle of the Pacific Ocean near Fiji, where there are a number of stay cats, dogs, puppies and kittens and even pigs. The Pics are just some of the animals we have rescued, fed and helped in the last 2 years plus. My husband and I have unintentionally become animal rescuers here. We currently have 4 dogs/pups, 12 cats/kittens and over 20 pigs/piglets.  There is one veterinarian here for the entire country which is about an hour drive from here and they only service cats and dogs. Finding pet foods and proper care here is costly because minimum wage is only 3 Western Tala per hour which is exactly $1.54 per hour in USD. I'd like to get our rescued animals nutured and spayed along with vaccinations.  And any medications needed. Even though there isn't currently an over population of cats and dogs here I'd like to be responsible. Additionally we will most likely continue to rescue animals in need as we find them or they come to us. Here most pets never see pet foods,  proper nutrition , medical care or vaccinations as ppl here are poor compared to US standards.  Often we will see emaciated animals and we feed them or take them in as we can, but because of the worlds circumstances it's hard to afford at this time. Pets here have an average life span of roughly 5 years, depending on their circumstances. There are no pet stores here either. I can find dried dog and cat food and once in a while canned foods, so I make all of their foods homemade and fresh besides the kibble which is generic brands imported from the US. Please note that I was a licensed wild life rehabber in NYC for 7 years with the DEC and I am still currently registered to do animal rescue in all 50 states .  Now my calling is here in Samoa so any donations to these beautiful in need animals will be extremely appreciated and spent accordingly for their cause.
