Fun fact: there are so many strays in Georgia that whenever animal activists need to travel outside the city, they usually scootch down in the back seat to avoid catching a glimpse. Our Mariam is no exception.

But one time, she did peep out of the window.

“I saw Jesse near Zugdidi, in a completely isolated place, with her head broken.

We took her in straight away and treated her. I worked hard to find a family for her in Georgia, but no one wanted her.”

Thankfully, today she lives with Michelle Likier in the Netherlands, pampered with love, toys, and walks.
