Heart Melting And Inspiring True Story Of An Amazing Stray Animal Lover !


This is a true story of an amazing person who loves stray animals more than his life. Trust me if i am saying more than his life, so i mean it. Now a days very rare people are like him. I am proud i am having he like my own child. I want to share about him with my all dear friends. This may inspire you.

That person is from Mumbai - India.
One day i received a call from him. He was talking about stray dogs and about his animal welfare activities. I asked who gave my number !? He took senior vet Dr Swali's name. Dr Swali is the person who knows me very well and respects me for my love for strays, my sincerity and sincere animal activities. He shares my contact number with genuine people only otherwise never. I respect Dr Swali a lot. I  call him uncle.
So there was no question of any doubt now.
That person wanted to meet me regarding stray work. I told him some day we will surely meet.
After that i forget him because i always receive so many calls like him so just slipped from my mind. After long long time he called me again about a stray and wanted to ask few things so i helped. But because of my stray work schedules i again forgot him.
One day i visited to Dr Swali with my baby Chotu Matta for his vaccination. I heard doctor's words. He was telling somebody,  look who has come, Manisha Matta has come .He called me inside the clinic and gave introduction of the person who was standing there along with a pet ( stray). He was that person only. So finally we met first time at uncle's clinic. He left for his home then. I asked to doctor about him. Doctor said, Manisha, i have no more words to say, if you can believe i will say in few words that i respect you a lot for your good deeds and karma. You are an amazing soul and strays are your life so trust me the same he is !!
After that whenever that person tried to talk to me or needed any help or information for strays i did sincerely. Slowly i came to know about his great stray animal activities.

Here are those. Without any doubt he was doing amazing work for strays with his own money ( though currently he is not earning, he is not on any job still he is doing from his savings ). And it is continue till date. He do stray feeding, not only in  his location but in so many areas he do. His stray feeding schedule starts in afternoon/ evening and till late night night 2.30 am - 3 am he do.
Amazing thing is that he not only feeding but he call private vets and try to  give vaccinations to all strays so they can live a healthy life, he rescue and send stray kids for their sterilization and visit there to meet them regularly. Post operation he get them back in their areas and takes a lot care of them.

He gives proper treatment when ever stray dogs/ pups are sick or injured. He give medicines, clean the wounds, apply ointments other necessary things with his own hands . When the stray kid is on medication then does not matter he will go and feed him/ her even 2-3 times a day.
Some times he keep the stray kids in private kennel if needed/ till their recovery.

His younger brother is working with a company. See the greatness of this brother. After coming back from his office he also do help to his elder brother in stray feeding. Here i will not ignore their papa's greatness who also help the sons when ever they require his help for stray lives.

Trust me friends, there are rare animal lovers like them specially that elder brother who not only doing stray feeding to quite a big number in his own location and some other areas, but along with feeding he do rescue work, follow vaccination schedule, their sterilization, treatment of ill and accident cases, take care of senior stray dogs, and many many more things he do to save innocent stray angels.
The biggest thing is, he refuse to be silent towards cruelty to strays. He understands their unsaid pain and forget to sleep in nights if any emergency with stray kid. Whole night he will spend with the needy, will pamper and will take care for him/ her. He cries so much when he see mute innocent beings in so much pain !!
He never ignore strays' needs. He never ever give up on them till their last breath.

But sadly people have awarded him by given him a name 'Pagal' (mad) for his stray love. People insult him, fight with him. Some times it hurts him a lot but for sake of strays' well being he forget everything.

Some organizations have stopped taking cases of his stray dogs when they needed help. For what reason !?
The reason is as i already told he refused to be silent if he see some wrong things happening with strays. He try to talk about some facts for their well being. So some people tried to prove him wrong. He is their target.

When i heard all about this i started visiting in his location to know the truth. I started meeting people, shopkeepers , security guards of buildings, parks, temples and restaurants where he goes for feeding, treatments. I came to know the whole truth about him. So true he is.

The truth is - he is a true angel for stray lives. he is the man of his words and commitment towards stray animals. Everybody told me not only about his stray feeding but stories of his kindness towards stray lives. The things were clear now.

One side is ego of some persons, untruthfulness, politics of some so called animal lovers and at the other side is kindness, sincere, honest, true love and care of this person towards stray lives, some proofs against those people which he showed me.

And my respect goes with that amazing person. I am with his sincerity, honesty, kindness, true love, care for our stray animals.
Because i am the same and i always stand by the side of truth, kindness towards our beloved stray angels. Stray animals are my babies.

I will never forgive myself if i will ignore or avoid to help this amazing person, a savior of stray lives. I really do not want to lose one true caring person and savior of innocent lives. Because he is already  disheartened by the harsh behavior of some so called animal lovers/ other people. Because when he needs any help for strays, for saving their lives, or need to admit a ill, injured kid, to admit or sterilize or for  vaccinate them, no body gives him response. They ignore him/ his calls. So he take them to private vets or call private vet at the locations.

I strongly believe that God is there to help for his own mute living beings. HE is there to take care of everything and will surely help this person for innocent precious souls.

So I respect you. Hats off to you and my salute to you dear Himesh Chande from bottom of my heart. You are an amazing kind person with a golden heart.
You are an angel for stray lives. You are the center of their universe. You are their voice.
Thank you so much for taking so much care of stray precious souls.

Thank you so much for saving three stray siblings by adopting them. You adopted them not with pity but with your love and gave them a home and a lot care.

Thanks to your younger brother Anand who helps you in feeding and other things after coming back from office.

Thank you so much for everything whatever you are doing to save stray precious souls.

May God bless you dear.

I respect and love those angels from cores of my heart who support, protect, feed, love, care for stray innocent precious souls.

May God bless all.

My Only Crime - Being Born. Share My Prayer !

 
From my diary one more true story - grave of an old and three legged stray angel (dog). Here is his pain in my words.
 
 

 
My friends, I am a three legged old stray dog.
 
I do not have request for a safe place to live, to sleep, attention. I have followed you through various moves. In good or bad time, I am your companion, always be there at your feet. I never gave up on you in the hard times, why you have given up and discarded me. You alone are the centre of my universe. I have not ask for much, just keep me, to love me and let me live in peaceful healthy life.
 
Why my shadow is only my friend you are not by my side? Why I m not allowed to stay forever at one  place? Why I am suffering, scared and defeated? Why I am betrayed by humans?
This is my only crime, being born !?
My friends, please do realize before it is too late that My soul is the same as in all living creatures only body is different.
 
Here is not only me is alone who is born to suffer in pain and die. There are my million brothers and sisters who are suffering from the same pain.
 
This is an old dog's request to you all human beings. Please give your attention to us. We all need your love, care and protection to survive. We too are God's creatures. We deserve happiness. We don't want to die same like you do not. Our lives are in your hands. Please save our lives.
 
Rescue, adopt, foster, volunteer, sponsor, donate, spread the word of kindness for us, share, whatever in small or big effort but please do help and support us. You only can be our saviours.
 
Thank you my friend for hearing me.
Yours only,
 
-An old and three legged stray dog.
___________________________________________
 
This is a true story and original picture clicked by me. This precious child lives on the street of Ghatkopar area. He has three legs. In an accident because of a human he lost his left hind leg. He is living a miserable life. He is very much scared of humans. Even other stray dogs tease him and try to hurt him and he can not run fast to protect himself. So he is very much scared.
 
Because he wants to be loved so he cries all the time in strange manner. But sad people do not look at him. When I visited their and wanted to touch him, hug and pamper him he started running and hide himself under a car. He was scared. I started talking with him from some distance. He started crying when he heard my polite voice.
It was heart breaking. Tears rolled on my cheeks.
 
One of my kind friends is feeding this precious soul and is giving love to the kid. The kid only trust on my friend. I am happy that finally the kid is loved by at least someone?
 
I always ask for forgiveness from animals. No doubt because of human beings they are suffering and are on risk. Please forgive me precious souls.
 
This is my pledge and  my promise to you I will never give up on you like you never gave up on me in my hard times. You are a life and it is my duty to respect your life, to protect and help you.
This is responsibility of every human being to respect, help and protect all other living beings !
Thank you.

Story Of Jackie - Happy Ending !

 
Today I will tell you the story of Jackie.

Meet Jackie. He is pure Indian breed, our stray baby. How handsome he is. Isn't he ?

Jackie was born on one of the Mumbai streets. When he was small 1.5 month old puppy he got severely ill with some born disease. Due to this disease his all four legs became very weak and he was unable to walk. He was suffering in pain on the street.

But God was with Jackie. Kind souls Priyanka and her family ( who live in my colony ) appeared like angels. She wrapped him in her arms and adopted him from street. They removed the name tag of 'stray' and gave him a sweet name Jackie. He is only Jackie.

Before taking him in their home Priyanka and her family never gave a thought to his illness. They took the baby to the private vet and started treatment for his born problem and some other problems too. Whole family took a lot care of him. With their love and care he is very good in his health now. Priyanka daily take him for walks in our colony. He is such a sweet heart kid.

Jackie is above one year now. He is a happy kid. He is the life of whole family.

This is true love and compassion for a stray. Priyanka and her family appeared as angels in Jackie's life and adopted him direct from street, otherwise he might have died. Hats off. Happy ending.

May God bless this lovely family and Jackie.

I wish every human should be kind like this amazing family. If so then trust me things will surely work for animals in distress. No one homeless animal will suffer then.

My request please share this post and spread the word for homeless animals. There is a lot lack of awareness about stray animals. They desperately need us to survive. By your kind efforts and help every time you will be saving an innocent life. Your efforts will make a lot changes.

Start from your neighbourhood today !

Thanks.

Grave Of Strays/ Homeless Animals !

 
My heart is crying and burning for stray lives. I Saw a worst accident case and on the spot death of an innocent mute life.
 
I want to share few things. This is for all our strays/ homeless animals who are suffering the most and unwilling hearts. Why they are born to die !? Human has left them with no place to call home. Things are to animals is the same as always. Though they are God's creatures, living beings  like we are. They too have a body, heart and a soul like we have. But the real pity is people ignore them, hit them, kick them, hurt them, poison them, kill them, treat them in the worst ways they can because they are scared of these innocent beings. They think animals will hurt them so hate them. 
 
But the real pity is that the animals are on the first place are the ones who are scared. Why do human do not understand they too have body, blood, borns and heart. The fear is worst than death for animals. As a living being we fear pains and sufferings, we want to live and not to die then how can we forget about them that they too are living beings and want happiness, want to live not to die !?
I don not know what innocent living beings have done ? My heart melts when I see in their eyes a lot love, hopes and pain.
 
This is betrayal of a heart, a soul that deeply trusted in everything on humans. They have only us. They want to be loved ones and a corner in our hearts. They are dependent on us. We are their world. We alone are the centre of their hearts.
They are most adorable creatures.They have true pureness of love, they love truly and deeply. They do not know you are rich or poor, ugly or beautiful, they only know that you are their world and how to love unconditionally to you.
 
Let all human should understand God has created all living beings. He created us as a human being, give us voice. He created other living beings but without voice. So they should not require our permission to live on earth. God has given this right to them too. Being a human this is our responsibility to take care of another living beings who have no voice. Why should innocent lives suffer !?
 
Such short little lives they have to spend with humans. Human should wholeheartedly accept them. They need our help and protection to survive. Support and care for a stray/homeless animal by getting heart warm treatment of the human society.
 
There is a lot lack of awareness and attention. Everybody should come forward to help these sweet beings and precious souls. Work together will make a change. Such awareness not only required to be appreciated but also to be followed and implemented.
 
Choose  to be kind and help and save the lives of mute innocent living beings, they have only you. They should not betrayed/ killed by humans. They should be loved, cared, protect by us.
 
I do respect and love to all kind souls who love and care for strays/ homeless animals and are voice of them.
 
Please learn it, teach it and do not hesitate to share it.
 
Thank you.

Lakdi - One Of My Toughest Rescue Cases !
 


 
This is Lakdi (stick). She is from my location. She is the part of my daily stray feeding.
Do not laugh at his name. Some reason behind it why I gave her this name. Because she is thin but very active and alert. Her body is very stiff like lakdi (stick) only. When she runs no one can catch her. While running she looks very funny as at the time her body looks like somebody has thrown a stick in the air.
 
One day she suddenly disappeared. I kept searching her for so many mornings, afternoons, nights but was unable to find her. After some days she suddenly appeared on her feeding time. But we were scared to see her. Her face was badly injured and one ear and one eye was swollen and completely closed. She was in trauma. When I went close to her she started crying and running. After that it is a big story of hide and seek. She was sometimes appearing in afternoons and sometimes in nights. I started keeping an eye on her. It was continue for so many days. I was worried about her. Because of wounds there were chances of maggots. I called Ida India for help. Thanks to them they gave excellent response for the kid. But she had severe injuries and pain so she again disappeared. Ida people came 2-3 times for her.
 
Very tough story of her rescue but God helped me otherwise she would have died. Finally after so many days I got success in rescued her and called Ida again. And as usual Ida again gave very quick response. They took her at their Deonar - Mumbai centre.
 
Lakdi was admitted in Ida. Vets and care takers took so much good care of her. After her full recovery  they hand overed Lakdi to us on my colony gate. 10-12 days has passed. My maids took her inside our colony. Now she is living here in my compound happily. She play with us a lot, love us so much. She eats properly and she is doing good by her health. May God bless her.
 
Thanks to God for everything. I am very thankful to my family, my husband and both children who always support and help me so much in my work, whatever rescue, adoptions, treatments, feeding, so many other things. In Lakdi's rescue My Husband helped me so much !!
 
Thank you once again Ida India from cores of my heart for always your quick response and great work. Hats off to entire Ida team. May God bless them. They are doing amazing work indeed and provide day and night services.
 
May God bless all kind souls who are helping our furry friends. They need us. They have no voice without us. Please be voice of them.
 
See the pictures of Ladki - Before I rescued and then after treatment from Ida, playing in my colony.
 
Thanks.
