- One famous cat on the Gram is helping other animals in need ... raising over $10k for animal relief in Ukraine!
- Stepan the cat, whose Instagram account Loveyoustepan has 1.2 million followers, started collecting money over PayPal last week, looking to donate to 5 different animal charities in Ukraine ... as of Monday, they've raised $10,035!
- "My dear friends, I'm heartedly grateful for your responsiveness and support!💙💛," wrote Stephen.
- The five charities will help in a variety of ways, providing aid to animals in Ukraine affected by the war. Stepan and his family have been documenting their journey, leaving Kharkiv and fleeing to France.
- This isn't your typical cat on Instagram. Stephen has caught the eyes of millions, including Britney Spears, who even reposted the kitty on her social media.
- Stepan was rescued when he was 1 month old and has lived in Ukraine his whole life. He went viral on TikTok in 2019, appearing with his famous glass of red wine with Stevie Wonder's "I Just Called to Say I Love You" playing in the background.
