![Ibn Grumby is a complicated @1001.paws rescue. He is still recovering from the skin issues he developed due to being abandoned, but one thing is for certain, @1001.paws will never give up on him, unlike his previous owners.

إنقاذ القط ابن غرومبي معقد بعض الشيء. فهو لا يزال يتعافى من مشاكل الجلد التي حدثت له بسبب التخلي عنه، ولكن هناك شيء واحد مؤكد، نحن في @1001.paws لن نتخلى عنه أبدًا، على عكس أصحابه السابقين.

THE MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA CRISIS
Stray animal populations are rising exponentially in the Middle East and North Africa and countries are struggling to cope.
Hundreds of thousands of animals are suffering starvation, disease, abandonment and abuse. Their voices not being heard. Their habitats being removed.
Cats and dogs are generally categorised as ‘Pests’ and inhumane policies of ‘Trap and Kill’ continue to be used in failed attempts to control stray populations.
Many people wrongly assume that neutering of stray animals is forbidden in Islam.
In some countries, feeding a stray animal is illegal. Animal abuse and abandonment are generally not reported and animal rights laws not enforced.
Thousands of people across the region are trying to conduct small scale animal rescue efforts but they are ALL overwhelmed and lack local and national support.

OUR VISION FOR A DESIRABLE FUTURE
The Middle East was once a beacon to the world for compassion and mercy to animals during its thousand year Golden Age.
1001 Paws aims revive a new golden age of animal wellbeing and inclusiveness in the Middle East and North Africa and end needless animal suffering.
OUR STRATEGY WINNING FOR ANIMALS
1. Improving public awareness about the animal crisis and what people can do to help.
2. Providing direct support to organisations, rescue groups and shelters in the region.
3. Convincing religious leaders to issue fatwah (Islamic rulings) supporting neutering of stray and abandoned cats and dogs in locations that have population crisis.
4. Lobbying to:
(a) STOP categorising cats and dogs as ‘pests’;
(b) STOP ‘Trap and Kill’ policies and conduct large scale humane ‘Trap Neuter Release’ and vaccination programmes;
(c) CRIMINALISE pet abandonment and animal abuse enforcing laws with tough punishments;
(d) CLOSE pet markets and criminalise breeding and sale of cats, dogs, wild and exotic animals;
(e) ESTABLISH regulated frameworks to empower citizens to conduct animal rescue and establish community managed colonies.
1001 PAWS IN ACTION
When we deny animals their natural habitats and at the same time refuse to provide alternative environments for healthy living then their suffering is 100% our responsibility.
