Ten Commandments for Strays
Follow these 10 steps to make a stray's life liveable
- Start with Young: The seed of kindness in students should be sown right from the childhood as it is crucial to imbibe the quality of in them
- Reports of cruelty to be taken seriously: Demand for strict laws and their effective implementation against preventing cruelty against animals is also must. Report incidents seen on social media.
- Animals not safe even in pet shelters: Frequent raids should be conducted against people who operate under the guise of shelter provide fail to provide for animals’ physical and social needs,
- See animals as part of society: If everyone starts to look at animals and not just dogs and cats as fellow animals, who share our planet, we will see far fewer cases of cruelty towards animals.
- Understanding animal behaivour: To understand the nature and behavior of animals, one can observe it by adopting pets. The fact that animals cannot speak the language humans don’t understand should be taken into consideration before torturing or abusing them.
- Do not differentiate between strays and pets: Pets are given special care by their owners while the stray animals are ignored by all and often ill-treated. Humans have to understand that animals are also living creatures and we have no right to ill-treat them in any manner.
- If you see animal in need, call animal care helpline:Just as not reporting any crime against humans is a crime, witnessing cruelty against animals and not reporting it is a crime as well. We must be kind towards animals, provide immediate veterinary care to the abused or else call animal care helpline.
- Provide temporary homes to abused animals: Government shelters and NGOs should provide temporary homes to animals who are abused, injured or sick and need time to recover.
- Be responsible pet owners: People, who have pets at their homes, should be responsible enough to take care of their pets.
- Regular monitoring can keep population in check: To keep a check on brutal treatment against animals, it is important to keep an eye on the population of street animals. Support anti-fertilization drives.
