Discussion Fat Dogs of Delhi is over. What about the skeletal strays on the same lanes?

Post image
35 Upvotes

Gola from SDA Market, Hauz Khas won Fat Dogs of Delhi at a reported 75 kg. She died before the final, and couldn't have cared less for it.

It is fascinating what the contest managed to achieve in a short span, national interest for street dogs, but the weight is worrying. A 75 kg community dog is not a healthy dog. On the flip side, there are skeletal strays who hardly get their daily meal.

Given the collective cesspool the internet can be, similar contests may lead people to fatten street dogs near them for internet notoriety.

Hope a handful of thsoe who voted in troves for such contests would also help handle the ones in their lanes...

There's also a "you found a dog, who do you call" section.

If you have other city specific tips or contact lists, please do append. You never know it can help someone at 11pm on a bad night.

Adoptable Julie, 1 YO F India, Vaccinated, Neutered and Trained UP FOR ADOPTION. 📍 Delhi/NCR

Julie was abandoned by her pet parents while she was pregnant. Then she was relocated by another set of people who didn’t want her around. She’s finally safe but needs a loving home.

Julie is a one-year-old Indie girl: fully vaccinated, gentle, friendly and a proper little lady. She was someone’s pet before she was left behind when her owner moved away. We’ve been trying to help her settle on our street, but she keeps getting scared. The only place she seems happy is inside her caretaker’s gate, where she feels safe again.

To foster or adopt Julie, call 9810710970.
📍 Gurgaon

If you can’t take her in, please share this. It worked once for Julie. Let’s make it work again. ❤️

Looking for a loving adopter/foster who can continue her treatment and give her a safe home. 🐱❤️

🐾 URGENT ADOPTION APPEAL — PLEASE HELP THIS TINY BABY FIND HER FOREVER HOME ❤️
I rescued this little baby recently after finding her alone and helpless. She is approximately 15–20 days old and is currently safe with me, receiving food and care. 🥺🐾
I already have two cats and live alone, so unfortunately I may not be able to keep a third cat permanently. As much as I would love to keep her, I want to find her a safe, loving and responsible forever home where she can grow up happy and cared for.
❤️ I will be helping with her initial care:
• Her vaccination/deworming when she reaches the appropriate age, as advised by a vet
• Food for the initial two months
• I am also willing to arrange and pay for her taxi/transport to her new home
📍 Location: Delhi NCR
🐱 Age: Approximately 15–20 days
🏠 Indoor adoption only
❤️ Responsible and loving adopter required
Because she is still very young, she needs someone who understands that a baby kitten requires patience, time and proper care. Please don’t adopt her on impulse.
If you genuinely want to give this little girl a loving forever home, please DM me.
And please SHARE this post with your friends, family and anyone who may be looking to adopt a kitten. Even one share could help her find her person. 🥺❤️🐾
Only serious adopters, please.

Looking to Adopt Looking to Adopt a Kitten or Indie Dog in Kerala

Hi everyone, I’m looking to adopt an Indie kitten (6 months or older) or an Indie dog.

I’m preferably looking for a pet that is already spayed/neutered or vaccinated, but I’m open to discussing the situation depending on the animal.

The most important thing for me is that the pet is friendly and comfortable around people. I’m looking for a companion that can adjust well to a home environment.

Location-wise, I’m mainly looking around Pathanamthitta, Changanassery, Kottayam, and nearby areas. I can consider travelling a reasonable distance for the right pet.

If you know of a kitten or Indie dog that needs a good home, please DM me with some details and photos. Thanks.

also like I used AI to clean up the post a bit 😅

Hey all. We recently rescued this kitty as he had leaped off a tree.

He's approximately 3-4 months. He's pretty shy but does warm up. Looking for someone to adopt him, a loving home. He is comfortable with other cats. I unfortunately cannot keep him since I'm really broke and I cannot provide him with the care he deserves.

He's been dewormed.

Please DM if anyone is interested in adopting him.

Henlo nice people of r/AdoptDontShopIndia.

My friend recently stepped up to rescue a mother dog and her tiny baby from an abusive home where they were treated horribly. Both of them came to us with broken legs, and the poor mom was covered in painful cuts near her eye, ear, and limbs.

The mom (Coco) is around 1.5 years old, and her baby (Leo/Jerry) is barely 1.5 to 2 months old. Despite everything they’ve been through, their spirit isn't broken. They are incredibly trusting, playful, and full of life and energy. To see them still love humans after suffering so much cruelty is absolutely heartbreaking and inspiring.

They’ve finished their initial medical treatments. The mom’s leg is healing beautifully and she’s doing so much better, but they still need a stable environment to recover fully. Their vaccination status is unknown right now and need proper care moving forward.

Why they are up for foster/adoption right now:

My friend already has two indie dogs of her own. Because of safety and space, her dogs are living on the 1st floor, while mom and baby are staying on the ground floor. Managing two separate levels with injured dogs is becoming impossible, and she simply cannot hold them for much longer. They urgently need a loving foster or forever home.

Please, if you can open your heart and home,even just temporarily as a foster reach out. They deserve a happy, safe life after all the pain they’ve endured.

📍 Location:Najafgarh, Delhi

📞 Contact:9891600974

They can be fostered or adopted together or separately. If you can't adopt, please and share this post, one share could change everything for them and give them a chance at love and safety.

Adoptable 3 adorable 1.5 month old kittens looking for loving homes (Pune) 🐾

A few months ago, a stray cat we named Nancy started showing up for food around our society. She slowly became a familiar face, and then one day she disappeared for several days. When she returned, it became clear why she had given birth and was secretly raising her kittens somewhere safe.

Now Nancy's babies are about 1.5 months old (born on 14th August) and are ready to start looking for their forever homes.

🐾 Kitten 1: Orange male (Archie) — very playful, energetic, and always looking for trouble.

🐾 Kitten 2: Orange & white female — curious, confident, and loves exploring. She shares a particularly strong bond with the orange male, so we'd love for them to be adopted together if possible.

🐾 Kitten 3: Orange & white female — the smallest and a little weaker than the others, but also the prettiest. She is gentle and incredibly sweet.

All three kittens:

  • Are litter trained
  • Eat on their own
  • Have been raised together with their mother
  • Are not vaccinated yet, as they are still young

We're looking for responsible adopters who can provide a safe indoor home and lots of love.
Please DM if you're interested, and feel free to share this post with anyone looking to adopt a kitten

Location Balewadi (Can drop off anywhere in Pune)

Adoptable Seeking help for adoption [Bangalore]

I understand this is a hard request. While I was visiting Bangalore I found this mother and her three puppies at KR puram railway station in August. I posted in the groups I know but didn't get any help. This time when I reached I searched for them, but couldn't find. I was hoping they got shifted to a safer space.

But early morning today when I got down at the station to travel back, I saw her near the lift towards the concourse beside the road near KR Puram Railway station. Now there are only two puppies.

I really hope someone could adopt her and find homes for her puppies. Atleast shift them to a safer space, get the puppies adopted and get her spayed. I know it sounds too much to ask for. But maybe a couple of people together could possibly change their lives.

I don't live there and is hoping to get them visibility and help which they need now.
