For now we don’t have our own Shelter House, we Place the Rescued Dogs in the other Shelter house.

We encourage communities to take care of abandoned puppies and kittens where they were found, by providing them with food and water. Please register a complaint with us by providing the mother dog/cat’s picture and location.

The safest place for puppies/kittens is with their mothers. If you don’t see the mom, there’s a couple different ways to tell if mom is around. If the puppies/kittens are clean and quiet, the mother is most likely coming back. However, if they are dirty and crying, the mother may not return. At that point, please contact us to discuss what can be done.

The only way we can help you is by sharing the message on social media. You will have to share with us a recent picture of your lost pet with identifying information and a contact number. You can share this information by contacting us via social media.

We attend to rescues within 25-30kms radius. During emergencies like an accident we have also extended help to far of places only when the caller/reporter has volunteered to get the animal or meet us half way.

What is Sterilization surgery?

The most widely used techniques for surgical sterilization of pets involve removal of the gonads (gonadectomy). Terminology and procedures differ between the two sexes. In males, each testis with attached epididymis is removed in a procedure commonly referred to as “neutering” or castration. In females, the uterus is removed in concert with both ovaries in a procedure called “spaying” or ovariohysterectomy.

 

Why do you sterilize stray dogs and cats?

There are no shortcut solutions to control stray dog/cat population. Surgical sterilization has been the cornerstone of efforts to curb stray dog/cat overpopulation. The only scientific and legal way is effective sterilization. The Animal Birth Control (ABC) module is also approved by our Supreme Court.

 

How do I identify if a stray dog or cat has been sterilized?

All stray dogs/cats that have been sterilized will have a notch on their ear. It looks like a ‘V’ shape cut on the end of an ear.

 

Do you sterilize pet dogs and cats?

No, we do not sterilize pet dogs/cats. We recommend you consult your regular veterinary doctor for this procedure.
