A group of street dogs rests in the Kazanchis area, a distinct reminder of the displacement caused by urban redevelopment. As homes and buildings around the neighbourhood were demolished, many pets were left behind, adding to the estimated 250,000 stray dogs in Addis Abeba. Volunteers try to step in, feeding these dogs daily with funds raised primarily through TikTok and Telegram campaigns under the monekir Animals Need Attention. On average, these efforts provide meals with about 80 Br for each dog, showcasing the power of social media and community-driven initiatives. However, its sustainability is not guaranteed.
