At the end of last year, a post on Facebook caught Alicia Silverstone’s attention; the post announced that a three-year-old pregnant dog had euthanasia scheduled for the following day because the shelter where she was staying was overcrowded.
After learning the story of Kenya, later renamed Noel, the 49-year-old actress sought help from the Helen Woodward Animal Center, located in California, USA, and staff members traveled 160 kilometers to rescue the dog, who gave birth just minutes after arriving at her new home.
“So she had her puppies, like, on the day they were going to kill her, she had her puppies, which is kind of crazy,” Silverstone told Fox 5.
The star of “Clueless” and her son visited the shelter at the end of January to finally meet Noel and her puppies and ended up taking four of them home for temporary care until they are ready to be adopted.
“If people spayed and neutered their animals, stopped going to breeders, stopped going to pet shops and simply adopted, you can have the cutest little faces in a shelter; you don’t need to spend a fortune on breeders or pet shops,” Silverstone said.
The actress has been sharing updates about the puppies on her Instagram page, where they look bigger and healthier each day; in the comments, fans and friends never tire of praising Silverstone’s initiative.
“How amazing and cute! You rock, girl!” wrote one person.
“You are an icon in every sense!” praised another.
