SECRETARY: This month we received lots of calls for animals in distress due to heavy rains. Some suggestion to protect animals from rains are: a) Provide cooked food for the colony strays in a shaded, dry area. b) Make a shade for them to keep away rain water. Provide them with a gunny bag on which they can sleep or rest and can keep warm and dry. c) Starting this season get all area dogs/cats sterilized so that they won't come on heat & fight among themselves d) Get as many animals vaccinated against rabies & others. e) Always keep telephone numbers stored with for any animal emergency. In rainy season lots of hit and run cases are reported. Also birds and snakes will calls are aplenty. Just keep numbers of NGO's and Fire Brigade handy with you or else call us on 9820161114 - we have the list of contacts in your area. Yours for Animals, Nilesh Bhanage ………………………………………… 2. SOME NOTABLE FIELD CALLS: # PAWS office received a call from Ms. June Rosario of Nalasopara who was being opposed by her Housing Society for feeding strays. PAWS immediately wrote a letter to the concerned authorities opposing dislocation of dogs. The matter was solved after PAWS intervened. # On 23rd June, a fifteen day old abandoned kitten was reported to PAWS office. The kitten is now being taken care by Secretary Nilesh & his wife Manasi. The poor kitten was taken away from its mother simply because of lack of understanding & love for animals. # On 25th June, PAWS volunteer Kunal Chheda found a huge barn owl bleeding from a leg injury. PAWS secretary Nilesh gave it first aid and then shifted it to Thane SPCA with the help of Sonali Bagde & Trustee Anuradha Ramaswamy. That owl is now recuperating at Thane SPCA Animal hosp ital. …………………………………………. 3. DONATION IN KIND: PAWS is thankful to its Trustee Ms. Brinda Upadhyaya for donating us a beautiful Snake Grasper which she purchased from USA during her visit this month. The grasper was ordered on line by Brinda's daughter who studies at the US .This grasper is good for handling snakes and available only in USA. Nilesh has been requesting many to procure this grasper but only Brinda and her daughter, who are on a vow to rescue and rehabilitate snakes took this up seriously. The grasper is useful in rescuing wild snakes that enter residential areas specially in the monsoon. We are very grateful for her kind donation. …………………………………………….. 4.
