All appeared to be available through Help Adopt Moroccan Animals, a “refuge in Marrakech for street animals at risk”. The company also shared Anthony’s post on social media, and thanked him for advocating for the animals.

Anthony has been a longtime supporter of animals, and in 2023 he and wife Stella Arroyave, 67, teamed up with Paws of War to cover the expenses of animals who needed rescuing internationally.

 “Being able to help support each of these missions is an honor,” the actor said in a statement after the news emerged. “We love animals and want to do all we can to support the great work that Paws of War is doing for our military members. My wife and I are happy to be supporting such positive outcomes.”

Paws of War is a nonprofit that helps reunite U.S. armed forces and the animals they saved during deployments.

“Since 2014, we have brought more than 600 dogs and cats, rescued by our troops serving overseas, to safety in the U.S. We have provided 100’s of Veterans with service and support dogs rescued from kill shelters,” the organization says on their website, sharing that their mission is to “honor and support our veterans, active military members, and first responders with services that enrich their lives through the rescue and training of service dogs for independence, adoption of companion animals, rescue of overseas animals in war zones, and other essential services to assist our heroes in need”.
