This is Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls.

Hi, Rebels.

This is Good Night Stories for Rebel Girls, the interview.

I'm your host, Chelsea.

And today, we're talking to animal disability advocate and entrepreneur, Shana Kielion.

Hi, Shana. I'm really excited to talk with you today. What do you feel is so unique. I cannot

wait to learn more about it. Can you please introduce yourself to our audience? Hi, my name is

Shayna Killian. I am a rebel girl. I build and donate wheelchairs to disabled animals all across the

world, and I am so excited to be here. Awesome. We're happy to have you. When did you start this

journey? And how did you first learn that this was a problem pets were facing? My mission began December of 2020 when I found that a lot of pets in shelters were getting

euthanized, especially those who are disabled.

So after learning this, I decided I needed to do something about this.

So I ran on YouTube, started scrolling,

what can I do to help these disabled animals?

And eventually I came across the idea of wheelchairs

and I just kind of took off from there.

That's really cool.

You didn't wait for anyone to show you.

You just figured it out on your own.

What was your process for building your first animal wheelchair?

I'm not a very mechanical person, so I had some help along the way, but it was mostly

me just figuring out what to do, what materials to use, and making some prototypes. It looks like your hard work is really paying off.
