The name really says it all! Animal Defenders is a non-profit animal rescue organisation that fights for better animal welfare in Indonesia. Their adoption program is called the Rehome Project, where smiling puppies and kitties are just waiting for families to give them a happy home. Animal lovers who are not ready to give these pets a permanent place to stay, can also participate in the foster programme, where you foster these pets until someone else is able to give them a new home.
Happy adopting, Honeys!
