My article is dedicated to forgotten, unwanted and ignored stray animals. As a stray lover to the core i took this initiative to make awareness in our society about thousands of homeless animals, living on the streets, who are sadly ignored, for whom people think they do not exist.
It happens to stray animals not only in India but in countries all over the world ! The reason is a lot lack of awareness. I want to raise awareness and show people what stray animals go through. I want to open their eyes and the opportunity for change possible because of awareness.
Stray animals that have known suffering and deprivation display a depth of character that is unmistakable. When i see haunting images, sorrow squeeze my heart, my soul weeps . I hope my article may invoke in you a desire to make this world a better place for unwanted stray souls.
Like us humans, stray animals too are living beings. They should not require our permission to live on earth. If you remember they have given this right from God before us! This is their world as well. It does not belong only to us humans at all.
Do you have ever took trouble to think for a moment to know about their problems? How and what they are suffering from? Why not you ever thought majority of stray animals have learned not to trust humans !
Humans just never know the reality that stray lives are emotionally traumatized. They face acute physical, mental, social challenges. They die to the agonies of starvation, illness, cruelty, frustration, multiple and virulent contagions, exposure to extreme weather, wounds from humans - being hit by vehicles, breeding injuries, territorial imperatives, separation anxiety and many many more. They are unwanted, betrayed by humans and so killed too, this the the reality of stray lives. People look on but do nothing. This is sad and shameful that how human being so different to this level of sufferings? This world is really dangerous place for stray animals where people feel no compassion at all Thus innocent souls are completely forgotten and ignored.
My heart wrenches in sorrow when i see them dying in pain. I wish individuals should take step up and take stray animals in to their care. Though people have right to remain silent but if they do stray animals will pay.
I know we can not help everyone but we should not forget that everyone can help something for someone.
Prove yourself a kind and responsible human being. Put all your efforts into getting the stray animals safety. You need to do some things to protect and save them.
To support and protect them what you need to do ?
You do not need much for that but only a big kind heart !
So take a look here -
Keep your eye on the purpose. Put all your efforts into getting the stray animal's safety that would be lifesaver. It is humane to protect living beings who can not help for themselves.
Rescue, adopt, foster, volunteer, donate, sponsor, share, spread the word for help, raise awareness, do not keep silence against cruelty , report against cruelty, abuse, mistreatment, killing to stray animals. Fight for their rights. Do something for them no matter size of contribution or help. Millions strays who are in their old age or pets who are abandoned suffer to a fate worse than death by heartless humans. They have no place at all to live. Just bring love, care, comfort, security and hope to them. Give stray animals dignity.
Rescue supporters, funds and volunteers are seemingly always need. Raise awareness about it. Every individual should stand up and take the stray animal into his/her care. Do not let them die in pain and loneliness. Your love and care in their brief, final hours, they will surely come to know that they are not unwanted and forgotten, but somebody was there for them.They must feel your heart is breaking when they go. Share your mission all around for the miserable stray animals. Help in neuter and spay so no more strays will born to die on streets because being born is only their crime. So do not let this happen to them.
Friends, i am not the best. I make mistakes in my ignorance, but i am an stray animal lover to the core. My spine chills when i see man's inhumanity at the worst towards them.
I do not want any publicity. I just believe in karma. I try to find permanent homes for stray animals through their adoptions or rescue those who are in distress, admit them in hospitals/ to vets, give myself treatments to them when they are ill, hug them, love them and take care for them, whatever is possible and in my limits. My heart melts at that time when i look at their face and see into their eyes and hug them. Their face and eyes tell some thing to me that it is rare in their little lives they have not being ignored or mistreated, sincerely!
I am doing my activities in any way to help stray animals for their safety are bigger than what i am. There are things that go too deep for words.
I vowed for unwanted ignored stray souls that i will become voice of them. I will not keep silence, i will fight their fights. I will not lose the hopes for them. They are true to the last beat of their heart so i will too to them. I owe it to them to be worthy of such devotion. Till i am alive i will continue to care for stray animals. If they will not survive due to reasons, at least they will be remembered and their lives will be count for something. So in their final moments they must feel they were not alone, there was somebody for them who love and care for them, who's heart was weeping when they were leaving.
There should be peace and safety on this planet for all living beings. Believe this fact we are equally living beings. We have to go back where we all came from.
This is my mission which i every time share with human society to raise awareness about precious but ignored and forgotten stray animals. This is a hope one day will come which will create positive change for stray animals and will make a difference !
Join me in my efforts. We are only the hope for voiceless. Without our support and protection they will die. Prove what your love and kindness can do ! Take all this challenge carefully, It will save innocent lives. It may fill a void, you did not realize that you had !
My motto is to make invisible stray animals visible, to be loved and protect in human society.
Time is running. Take pledge to save stray animals . Start your efforts from today !

I agree - we should all stand up for strays. Now that we have groups on facebook who give instant solution - we should make use of the resources.
God bless souls like you.
I can understand the concern people have for strays but feeding them on the road and letting them live on the roads is not the right way. It's easy to feed them on the road, thinking you have done your part and go back home while they remain on the streets hardly any better off. Not only are they in danger, but there is no denying the fact that they can be a menace to the residents as well, biting people, attacking pet dogs, fighting with each other and so on. I have been at the receiving end of attacks by stray dog packs and they are really dangerous when their pack mentality kicks in. I have a pet dog at home and know how much effort, both physical and emotional, it is to raise them, however the rewards are many times that. The poor fellow too has been attacked by stray dogs and they are a constant menace whenever i take him out for walks. I see many people adopting a lip service attitude towards the welfare of stray dogs but they never adopt them and a lot of people feed them to fulfill their religious observations. It is because of these people and so called animal rights activists that the civic authorities too refuse to take any steps to prevent the stray dogs problem and it keeps multiplying and growing causing further hardening of people's behaviour towards strays. Let's face it, safety, welfare and better standards of living for people should come first and this can be achieved by adopting a practical yet humane way of tackling the stray dog problem. What needs to be done is to round up all the strays, fix a definite time period for their adoption and after that put the rest to sleep in a humane manner. I do know that your an animal lover who probably has adopted a lot of dogs, so you can hopefully work towards a permanent solution rather than the incomplete ones we have in place now.
Hi manisha,
I understand how u feel. I feel the same for our strays. However only a neglible amount of us who are compassionate towards our strays wouldnt really make a big difference.
Everybody needs to realise that its our moral responsibilty to extend support to organisations conducting animal rescues and provide shelter and healthcare to our strays.
Me and my family are very compassionate towards strays, we've adopted a stray pup , who's now a healthy , happy one yr old doggie.
I try providing food & medication for deworming n mange to any distressed dog I spot . I sincerely pray for all the animals who's sufferings are yet unknown to us, so that my god can take care of their health, food and comfort.
But again, just a few of us among thousands isnt goin to make a big difference. You need to trigger compassion and realisation in the hearts of the indifferent so that they could help the deprived strays too, or atleast stop treating them ruthlessly.
You are a kind soul manisha ! May god bless you and offer all the help and support to accomplish everything you want
:)
Thank you @ Neelambari for your kind words.

I am happy that God has chosen me as a medium for HIS voiceless creation. Thank you God.
