Purpose設立趣旨: 

Numerous animal rescue groups have been working day and night in order to rescue pet animals and
 farm animals in the affected area.
...
Shortly after the explosion of No.1 Nuclear Power plant, so many photos of the animals that were dying of starvation were shown on the net.

Even right at this moment, incredible number of farm animals are dying of hunger and thirst. Their body are starting to rot alive and they can stand up. It is a real inferno.

In the "Entry Prohibited Zone", hundreds of pets, 2000 cows, 3000 pigs, 13 ostriches are fighting for survival in the extreme heat wave of Japan. Only tragic death awaits for the weak ones.

The HEAD QUARTER FOR THE RELIEF OF ANIMALS IN EMERGENCY

 (Members: JSPCA, Japan Pet Corporation, Japan Veterinary Medical Association, JAWS) run by the Ministry of the Environment are supposed to come at front and rescue animals, but they failed in the initial operation and they got banned to enter the shelter run by the local government.

All they are doing is collecting donations (and are operating from one administration desk.

They have raised incredible $6,468,957 (¥494,829,648) -6 Jul 2011

I have been campaigning for animal welfare since 1990. When The Great Hanshin Earthquake occurred in 1995, I worked as a volunteer there to rescue animals.

Since the quake, I have been asking HEAD QUARTER FOR THE RELIEF OF ANIMALS IN EMERGENCY to build shelters in the affected area, and have been advising Animal Welfare and Management Office in the Ministry of the Environment and Fukushima food Hygiene Department about conceivable sequences and the ways to avoid them.

The pet animal No.1 shelter in Iino-town run by Fukushima prefecture and (The Ministry of Environment is involved too.) became overcrowded with more than 200% once. Despite the involvement of the Ministry of Environment, the horrible condition of the housed animals was not improved for a long time until very recent.

I helped the pet owners in various ways in order to take them out the shelter before it is too late to rescue.

On the other hand, there are people who broke the law and enter the No Entry Zone, and feeding and rescuing animals. Without their works, the animals would have been dead long before they were rescued by their owners who were allowed to enter the zone for a day to collect their pets.

The rescued pets in the No Entry Zone will be taken in at the Pet Animal No.1 shelter (Iino-town) and No.2 shelter (Miharu-town). However, capacity is only 190 dogs total, and it will be over-crowded again soon.

In order to change this situation and also to rescue missing pets, I decided to build a shelter. Already some locations are suggested by cooperating people.

We want to become an efficient group to act quickly on future emergency cases, and are aiming to become a cooperation entity.

In addition, our major goal would be to emphasize the need of transportation and evacuation of farm animals in times of disaster as well as pets, and promote it by learning successful cases abroad.

Even though the choice may be considered as a foundation, We would never wish to become an entity who receive salaries and bonuses and benefits without running an aggressive rescue while knowing what people truly need and want.

New shelter (private shelter) proposed to help Fukushima animals

One thing that is holding back more animal relief for the Fukushima animals is shelter space. This group, RJAV, is trying to build a shelter so more animals can be rescued. Overseas people can donate by paypal (you need that e-mail address if you don't have a PayPal account). The bank info. works mostly for those who want to make payment in Japan. You can use the bank info. to make payment from overseas, but keep in mind the bank fees. Paypal is usually better if you are overseas. 

Rescue and rehome as many animal victims of the Japan Quake/Tsunami/Nuclear as possible. We want to build a shelter which will accommodate as many animals as possible. A shelter to accommodate animals is urgently needed. Lack of shelter is the biggest obstacle preventing our rescue work. Raising fund is desperately need to save lives that are still struggling to survive in the No Entry Zone. 

Please PayPal any amount you could give for the innocent victims of the disaster. Your kind help would be greatly appreciated. Email address to PayPal:  rjav311@yahoo.co.jp
