SECRETARY: I always keep spreading messages/e-mails asking for continuous help by way of donation and support. But rarely I get a help in form of small donation amount. Now the position of the organization is very tough, I request all my supporters to transfer your contributions to PAWS A/C. *008801026804 **with ICICI bank. This will help PAWS to continue helping animals in distress.* Yours for Animals, Nilesh Bhanage 2. URGENT ATTENTION: Please note that we are in requirement of following medicines: Those who want to help us can call us on 9820161114 or e-mail us on paws Anti-Rabies Vaccines For dogs/Cats Tetanus Vaccines For Cattle Ivermactin Injection/ Tablets Maggot-wound treatment Vinchristin Injection V.G.

SOME NOTABLE FIELD CALLS: ## PAWS received a call from a Dr. Shirke from Sliver Heaven society in Dombivli that One bitch littered in their society s staircase & it is stinking. They want us to remove the dog from that locality & take her some other area. PAWS Trustee Mrs. Anjali Ekbote & PAWS long time volunteer Ms. Rakhee De went there & cleared the entire place, removed ticks from the pups, cleaned them and shifted them to the society s back premises wherein no-one will get disturbed due to dogs & the pups and mother will get protection & shed. Once the pups are raised will get the bitch sterilized, get pups vaccinated. PAWS will also put-up a notice on that society s notice board to inform dog s issue & awareness. The problem of the society is solved peacefully. This is just an example to solve the problem without fighting & protecting human attitude. ## PAWS office received a request from its volunteer Shirley Amanna that one animal care-taker Ms. Kala Nair of Nalasopara needs help for getting all her premises dogs sterilized. She already looks after more then 22 dogs in her premises. Out of which 7 bitches, she wanted to get them sterilized so that they don t multiply. Since it was hectic for PAWS to send the ambulance from Dombivli to Nalasopara, then Nalasopara to IDA & back to Dombivli, PAWS requested IDA President Ms. Goodicia Vaidya to send one of its vans to Nalasopara. PAWS paid money for fuel on behalf of that lady for this out-of-way trip. Finally with the help from IDA & PAWS, all her bitches got sterilized. This is another sample about a huge network of animal-lovers can be band together for a cause and together help the speechless. ## A 2 feet long Monitor Lizard came inside the Factory in Ambernath MIDC, wherein our PAWS secretary is working there as secretary to director currently. He immediately swung into action & rescued the monster. Later the lizard was released safely in Badlapur forest area. 4. WORLD ANTI-RABIES DAY EVENT! PAWS team comprising Sonali, Anuradha, Nilesh, Bhartesh, Darshna, Anahita & Lalita, PAWS staff Mohan joined with Mr. Ramesh Ayer who feeds & looks after stray animals in Thakurli area & Dombivli MIDC area. All the dogs over 40 are being vaccinated against rabies by PAWS on World Anti-Rabies Day. PAWS every year organize such camp in the same area. The event was very successful & PAWS is the only charity who organized Anti-Rabies drive in entire Thane District on World Rabies Day. 5.
