Nowzad hasn't added a story.
Zari's Soldier Savior's partner says:
I would like to introduce you to Zari.
This sweet girl
is in Kabul, Afghanistan.
She was born near there and it’s not
an ideal place for her to live.
They were so small and very
malnourished.
Her and her brother were taken in by some U.S.
soldiers stationed at a small base there.
She was terrified
and would run off and hide any chance she got. She would crawl into
small spaces to feel safe and they would have to dig her out.
They began wrapping her in blankets to make her feel more
secure and safe. They built her a box and put some blankets in there
for her to sleep. This helped and she stopped running away.
Once Zari started to feel more comfortable and safe in her new
surroundings her personality and attitude began to appear.
She
was feisty and became the diva of the camp. She loved to play with
the big dogs and would antagonize them any chance she got. She loved
to play, explore and loved new people. She was very energetic and
the little star of the camp.
They cared for her as best they
could but knew it wouldn’t be her forever home.
They reached
out to other soldiers in surrounding bases searching for someone
whom might be able to help.
After the picture circulated
through the area from person to person, I myself received a picture
all the way here in Sackets Harbor, New York.
My significant
other is currently deployed there. Due to the covid pandemic his
deployment has been a bit longer than it was supposed to be.
However this added time to his deployment caused him to be
there as Zari’s picture was being sent around.
He in turn sent
it to me saying she needed a forever home. I immediately responded
with “okay, how and when can we get her?” I had no hesitation
saying “yes” to welcoming this little girl into our family and being
able to provide the love and care she needs.
If I can make one
good thing happen out of living through a very long, rough
deployment and a pandemic at the same time then this would be it. We
need help getting Zari from Afghanistan to the States.
We are
fully committed to giving her the best life by joining our family.
She has made the scary journey from the base she was at to the
Nowzad rescue clinic.
With Nowzad’s help, our determination and a little outside
help.... let’s bring Zari home!
