ICYMI: An animal shelter in the Gaza Strip is using the wheels of toy cars and kids bicycles to build mobility devices for disabled cats and dogs
Workers at the Palestinian enclave's Sulala Animal Rescue society are working to fit some 32 cats and dogs with the makeshift wheelchairs or with artificial limbs made from recycled wood and metal.
With the assistance of volunteers, Lucy slips her upper body through a harness connecting a metal frame to the wheels. Her back legs sit comfortably above the back of the frame. And off she goes.A paralysed dog is training to walk using a new wheelchair in Gaza City December 6, 2021. It was a freezing moment for Lucy, a paralyzed dog, when animal caretakers put a wheelchair on her to help her move again. Animal caretaker Said Al-Aer works with his father to care for 300 stray dogs and 80 cats.
There are no specialised medical centres for animals in Gaza, which is run by the militant group Hamas and is held under an Israeli-led blockade.
