I have been rescuing injured animals including cat / dogs for treatment and Spaying. Have also sterilized cats/dogs from my area with the help of IDA Ms Goodicia and Fiza Shah.  Here I would like to inform all the Jury Members that I am  very disappointed with BSPCA Parel Mumbai (Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). I hereby submit a brief report which is as follow:  1)        I had admitted a 3 month old stray kitten for Rectom Prostrate problem on 8th March 2009 Registration/Bill No 9876 at SPCA Mumbai and also paid Rs. 500 as admission fee.... I regularly visited her and she was fine after the operation. My last visit was on Friday 20th March and she was ok while the stitches were still intact. A note was left on her cage that she should be strictly on Liquid Diet..... On Sunday 22nd March I was shocked to hear that she was discharged and left in the Fish Market at Goregaon. When I approached the Manager Dr Yuvraj Kanigkar, he completely denied and said they must have left her in my area i.e Khar. But the driver Mr Suresh Dholakia clearly told us that it was the Manager who instructed to release the cats alongwith 6 other Kittens in any of the fish market. I was also told by the Manager as per the new Rules and Regulation at BSPCA they have stopped calling people and will not inform us at the time of discharge and they are suppose to leave them on their own in the resptive area. I immediately questioned him that the cat which I admitted belong to Khar area then why it was left at Goregaon and why I was not informed about the discharge since I paid for it...For that he replied we don't inform because we are running very high on telephone bills.  On Sunday I went to Goregaon to search the fish Market but could not find the cats.. On Monday 23rd March I again approached the Manager and told him to send the Driver with me to find the cats.  When I reached the spot I was shocked to see the place.. it was not a fish market but a huge Jungle and the driver had left all the kitten on the main highway just next to the jungle. Upon questioning the driver he said we can't help it because the fish market people don't allow us to leave the cats so we just leave the animals at isolated places.  Upon checking the entire bushes fortunately we could find one kitten but other 2 kittens including my kitten could not be found. The Kitten which I have rescued from Goregaon Jungle was in very bad shape and totally dehydrated and could barely walk due to leg injury. Unfortunately the kitten died after 2 days. (Attached Photo of the rescued Kitten)  I have a question to all the respective Jury. when the animals belong to a particular area it is mandatory that it should be released in that particular area itself then why the animals should be release in the Fish Market Or any other random places??. And why the owners of the stray should not be informed?  I have reported this matter to the Committee Member Madam Bakul Khatau who was also very upset with the whole episode and apologised to me.   2.                 On 24th July 2008 I had admitted a Stray puppy for Maggot wounds on his right ear. I had paid admission fee of Rs. 800. Unfortunately the puppy died on 11th of Nov 2008 due to the negligence of SPCA. I had regularly visited to check on the puppy. On 28th July I observed that the puppy was limping and his right leg was dangling he could not walk.. I approached the doctor but I was shocked when they told me that they are not aware. The puppy’s right leg was full of absess…Till then the puppy was only being treated for maggot wounds and was neglected for the leg injury. I was told that the absess was due to the injection which was given to the Puppy for maggot wounds. In a week time the puppy was fully dehydrated and the hospital had not even given him any tonics or proper medicine.. I had purchased all the medicine and tonic on my own. Unfortunately the puppy had a very painful death on 11thNov 2008 at SPCA. Here I would like to highlight though Bombay SPCA claims they give free treatment for strays animals I still paid the final bill of Rs. 4227. (attached Bill Registration no 6369 dt 11/11/08 ) for the dead stray puppy. Also the charges of Rs. 1000 for cremating the animals that too such a small puppy is ridiculous.(Photo Attached of the puppy)  Also I would like to point out since ABC program is run through Government Grant… why are we still charged Rs 1000/- for spaying/neuter.  Most of the time when we go to admit the animals we get a typical reply due to space constraint we cannot admit the animals… and the animals are sent back. Since SPCA is having such a huge land, why can’t they utilize the  land for building more wards for the animals since the land is all vacant.   Bombay SPCA have also come up with New sets of Rules for the stray animals. Whoever admits the animals have no right on the stray animals since it belongs to SPCA. They will release the animals once it is discharged without even informing the person who have admitted. This I believe is absolutely wrong and it is the duty of  SPCA to inform the person regarding the discharge of the animals so that we can pick up the animals and release them in that particular area since the animals are very familiar with the areas and can survive instead of abandoning them at random places where there is no water or any other means to survive. OR they should ensure that the animals are released in the respective area they are picked up from… I strongly protest against this Rules which is not in the better interest of our Animal Friends and which will risk their life.  Have also noticed that the dogs especially the Strays are tied up in such a cruel way with a fine rope instead of dog chain.. Some people have also donated the belts and chains but disappears after few days. Upon questioning they have typical answer “we don’t know what happened to the chains and beltsâ€. Hope the SPCA Management is aware of this.  Other day I had visited the surgical cat ward. Two cats was kept in a small basket for 4 days the reason was SPCA do not have enough cages/space. How can the cats be kept for days in such a small basket without proper ventilation and water.. I could see the cat struggling and immediately donated a cage and shifted the cat.   I very well remember previously the animals at SPCA was provided two meals a day. But now they are provided just one meal a day.. How about the animals who are admitted after 2 pm, they have to go without any food till next morning 9 am. This is not fair.  There are many more instances which I cannot put in writing because its is very lengthy and very painful..  I am also attaching the Media report of Mid-Day for yr ready reference.. and also a complain by one more Gentleman Mr Joshi… For all the complains SPCA have a typical answer.. “Whoever admits stray wants free treatment† I hope and request the Jury to kindly consider and take up the matter in the better interest of our Animal friends. I strongly believe Rules and Regulations to be set for the betterment of the animals and not to destroy them.  My Sincere Thanks to all the Respective Jury and all the people reading the report.  Attached photographs of the rescued kitten and the puppy.  POST THIS REPORT, I MAY OR MAY NOT BE ALLOWED TO ENTER bOMBAY SPCA FOR ANY FURTHER TREATMENT FOR THE ANIMALS. UNFORTUNATELY IN THE WHOLE OF BOMBAY WE HAVE ONLY ONE ANIMAL HOSPITAL.   Best Regards Ms Vishaya Kumtekar Khar West Mumbai India --- On Wed, 4/8/09, YouTube Service <service wrote: YouTube Service <service kvishaya sent you a video: " Helping a Stray Kitten lead her into a Big Trouble " kvishaya Wednesday, April 8, 2009, 5:05 PM kvishaya has shared a video with you on YouTube: pl read Helping a Stray Kitten lead her into a Big Trouble Vishya Kumtekar, an animal lover from Khar would have never thought that helping a stray kitten would lead her into a such a big trouble that she has to once again go in search for the same kitten.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I am in knowledge of VALID similar complaints against a reputed New Delhi based charitable veterinary care organisation. The complainant had sent injured/ sick dogs to this rescue center. But is surprised that even cases of limb fracture have died after admission. Such matters need proper medical examinations and evidence to prove true. I have already asked the complainant to take the matter with the AWBI as I am not the right person to probe/ comment on something which could perhaps be just plain and simple allegation.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I think its important that we voice our genuine complaints with the name of the organisation, after recognising that all organisations do make mistakes sometimes and also that they are dependant on staff that may be negligent at times. But if the problem repeats itself many times it means something. I am from the Pondicherry area and the SPCA here was pretty negligent a few years ago while I was a member. I no longer have anything to do with them, but at that time I did write to the AWBI and never heard back from them, nor was any action taken. There is another organisation here which was even worse - having got funds for an ambulance from the AWBI which was not being used for animals. This too was reported. Although writing to the AWBI did not help things, I think that making them public may help it a bit. So lets not hide the names of offending organisations or incidents. I think writing about it in forums like this and the FIAPO will help at least people will know which organisations not to trust with their animals. Although in Mumbai, I must say there is not much of an alternative to the SPCA sometimes. Nandita I am in knowledge of VALID similar complaints against a reputed New Delhi based charitable veterinary care organisation. The complainant had sent injured/ sick dogs to this rescue center.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Smt. Maneka Gandhi, Chairperson People for Animals has been informed several times of a Non-Functional, Defunct SPCA that claims to exist in the city of Guwahati.The 'S' in the SPCA signifies that it is a 'Society'. But in case of Guwahati since the time I knew of animal welfare in 1997, the Guwahati-SPCA has been a 'One Man Show'. It is one Mr. Singh (I forget his initials) who is in his 50s, an elderly gentleman, who sits in one corner of the office of the Veterinary Director. There is NO helpline for the SPCA here. There is No publicity undertaken by the existing AWOs or the AWBI to make people aware of atleast the existing de-funct SPCA of Guwahati. It is just disgusting! Following many such complaints of defunct SPCAs and AWOs, Smt. Maneka Gandhi carried out Nationwide inspection. And as the results were extremely pathetic and I also remember that during the 2001 Master Trainer course this was an issue which was of deep concern. I was personally asked by Smt. Gandhi to work with the administration and start a fresh SPCA here. However due to professional time constraints and my personal problems this move could not be initiated. But there is already a petition lying with the Deputy Commissioner of Kamrup metropolitan, where I have made an appeal to the administration for a new SPCA and scrapping the existing defunct one. So what I want to say is that Yes, there are many such issues involving organsiations which are of concern that put us in bad light. However I have never ever heard of any platform in INDIA which has made some kind of a breakthrough in resolving these issues (IN_HOUSE). When I say in-house, I mean a closed door conference/ seminar where the allegations/ charges etc can be debated/ discussed in depth and solved without the knowledge of the outside world. It is quite similar to what the head of a family would have done of his children may have done something not so good. Doing so would certainly instill more responsibility, accountability and would minimize the possibility of any vested interest. But having said that I would still feel that we must encourage the ordinary public to come out with grievances, criticisms, complaints, compliments on their personal experiences with AWOs. I do not see why AAPN should not be permitted to act as a redressal forum to address these issues of complaints. In fact we can win back the people if our esteemed members on AAPN (most of who are heading organisations which carry a lot of goodwill) can respond to such incidents.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 Before posting a complaint about any organisation, the organisation must be given a chance to explain. Thereafter, both the complaint and the explanation - if valid - can be posted on aapn. There are very few organisations working for animals. We can destroy them easily with a few words - but it takes years to build up a new organisation. Let's be fair, folks. Let's not destroy if we don't know the full story.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 Why start a fresh SPCA when the ground work for an organisation already exists? If no one is interested in the existing set-up, ten people can get together and take it over and show others how it can be run properly. If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. And no one said that the issues should not be discussed - the principles of natural justice require that an opportunity be given to the other party to respond to the charges. S.
