LEILA’S STORYOne little cat.
One little cat.
A reason to connect.
LiFELINE began with Leila and the urgent search for a feline blood donor.
At three years old, Leila was critically unwell. She desperately needed a blood transfusion to save her life. Finding potential donors meant reaching out to contacts, friends and strangers on social media to try to find people who might be able to help, at a time when every hour mattered.
That experience inspired a simple idea: make it easier for veterinary teams and trusted coordinators to reach willing cat owners, with clear information and kindness at every step.
Registering your cat as a potential donor is a way to be there for another family when they need it the most. You do not need to know their blood type, there is never an obligation to go ahead with donation, and you always decide whether you can help. Your cat’s welfare comes first.
Never pressured. Always free. Saving one life at a time.

Just a conversation.
Healthy adult cats may be suitable donors. Common starting criteria include an age of around 1–8 years, a lean weight above 4.5 kg, and a calm temperament. Requirements vary: the veterinary team makes the assessment.
International Cat Care · guidance for cat carersStart with what you know.
- Your cat’s age, weight and general health
- Your broad area in Dubai
- Blood type if known — “Unknown” is welcome
- The best way to reach you, if you choose
The vet checks health, medicines, previous transfusions, infectious-disease screening and compatibility. Registration is not medical clearance. Donation has risks which your vet must explain.
Three steps. Always your choice.
Hear when you might help.
Review relevant local appeals. Choose your contact preferences. Declining never needs an explanation.
Let the veterinary team lead.
If you can help, start a private website chat with the team. Share a number only if you choose. Screening and all donation arrangements happen with the vet.
No fees. No price on a donation.
Free for everyone.
LiFELINE is completely free for potential donors, recipient cats and their owners, veterinary teams and coordinators. There are no subscriptions, access fees or transactions on the platform.
Donors should not be left with a bill.
The requester must arrange coverage of donation-related costs, including agreed screening, testing and transport. Confirm those arrangements directly before travelling or committing to any procedure.
Never payment for blood.
Donors must never request money, gifts, fees or any other payment in exchange for donating. Helping another cat must be voluntary, without pressure or financial reward.
