Dear Mark,     

Because of you, our helpline is a lifeline for street animals. 20 years ago there was no number to call if you saw an injured animal on the street in Udaipur. When we opened our helpline in 2002 we were thrilled to receive a few calls in a week. Today, thanks to your incredible support, our outreach staff attend to between 100-150 calls each day from 7AM to midnight, prioritizing the most critical animals, guiding the community, and dispatching our rescue teams where they are needed most.

Your support enabled us to care for over 800 animals each day, including our beloved permanent residents and those who were with us for the duration of their recovery.

Thousands of street treatment visits provided care to animals in their own neighbourhoods, involving the community and preventing hospitlization.

We deeply thank you for all the achievements you made possible for street animals in 2022 and we are excited to help even more animals this year!

Plans underway to expand spay and neuter in 2023!

We are excited to announce that we will be re-opening our sterilization center and will be significantly increasing our spay and neuter surgeries this year. After having to shut the center down during COVID, we’ve been enthusiastically working to build back our capacity to undertake this vitally needed work while continuing our rescue and hospital service. Stay posted for more updates on this coming soon! 

Since Covid lockdowns you’ve heard our sad lament that we deeply missed our volunteers. But yes, they’re back! And the animals and staff could not be more delighted–and grateful.

Laughter and nurturing care rings out from those who come to help; new friendships are formed between people and animals, and Animal Aid is an even happier healing place–for our animals and our hearts!

Sage is one of the very BEST boys, but he had one of the worst injuries

When we got the call to receive this injured dog, we found him staggering in pain and confusion in the middle of the road, with wire embedded all the way around his neck, cutting down to the muscle.  When we brought him back to our hospital we removed the wire and began his life-saving treatment–antibiotics, wound dressing, IV fluids and painkillers.

We simply can’t imagine the pain he had endured for likely many weeks, judging from the damage the wire had caused to his entire neck. It’s just incredible that he even had the strength to continue searching for food and water despite such a horrific injury. Deepest thanks to our supporters, who enabled us to rescue Sage, and not only relieve his pain, but give him back his very life.

Edith finds happiness after tragedy

We received a call that a mother dog had severe burns all over her body. We found her nervously pacing near her injured babies, confused and almost as if asking for help. We do not know how she was burned but we suspect she may have been trying to save her babies, as her face was covered in painful blisters. Heartbreakingly, her puppies were severely injured and did not survive.

Her recovery was one of physical as well as emotional healing from the trauma she survived. Watch Edith’s story til the end–it will strengthen your hope in the power of love.

Even after tragedy, happiness can come again! Please donate today

Dear Mark,     

Because of you, so many animals get to shine bright. Thank you for your kindness, which has reached many hearts here in Animal Aid.

Your generosity over the past year has enabled us to help more animals than ever before, and to serve them better every day. Your help has meant more soft glossy fur, more twinkling eyes, more soft muzzles and more silly playfulness

Cherub wanted to heal fastin order to start kissing!

This little girl had been hit by a vehicle and had blood coming from her nose. A kind passer-by saw her injury and called us to the rescue. She cried out as we gently lifted her into our carry-basket, but she was too hurt and confused to struggle. As we examined her mouth, nose, and badly sprained leg, she kept perfectly still and her eyes were worried with doubt.

But what a resilient brave-heart she proved to be! After pain medicine, supportive bandages and plenty of cuddles, her tail gave a tiny wag, and we knew we had a life-loving spirit on our hands. Meet Cherub now!

A simple procedure brought huge relief for Saaya.

This frightened young lady was in tremendous pain from an abscess around her neck causing so much swelling she could barely turn her head. An abscess is a build up of pus formed under the skin, usually from a bacterial infection. In her case, we suspect she’d suffered a puncture wound, and the abscess formed to fight the infection from the puncture. Left untreated, an abscess can cause sepsis and even lead to death, so it was vital that she receive treatment right away.

We treated her with antibiotics, painkillers, and gave her sedation to painlessly drain the abscess. As soon as Saaya woke up from the sedation she was already feeling so much better, and within just a day she looked like another dog, and a gorgeous one!

Sponsor a sweetheart!

We often hear from people who have sponsored an animal that they feel their sponsored sweetheart is connected to them, no matter the distance.   Animals in permanent sanctuary at Animal Aid often came to us with a heartbreaking past, whether because of abandonment, or injuries so severe that they needed life-long care and protection. Sponsoring one of our many sanctuary darlings means giving the gift of not only rescue and medical care, but a life-time of love.    Take a look at these beauties–each with unique needs, a painful past and a beautiful life in Animal Aid’s permanent sanctuary, with you helping watch over him or her.

This little shop saves very important lives.
