Should They Heal Or Die In Agony , Let Us Try To Lift Them Once.
“I’ve been mocked, bullied, and threatened. Despite all this, I would never bend.”
So says Shalini, a fierce defender of animal rights and welfare.
45 year old Shalini learned to love animals at an early age. Her father was an ardent animal lover who would rescue animals and bring them home. With five younger sisters, the house was chaotic and loud. Shalini found peace in taking care of the animals at home.
After her marriage at 18, Shalini moved to Bareilly. This did not stop her from carrying out a passion in her life.
Shalini’s determination to fight for the voiceless:
A little into her married life, the family was having monetary problems. Her husband’s business was facing losses, and both daughters were studying. At that time, everybody said she should give up keeping animals at home. Even her husband questioned her.
“Apne liye khane to nahi hai, kisi aur ko kaise khilayenge?” (We don’t have enough to eat, how will we feed others?”
Her landlord and neighbours, annoyed by the constant noise of rescued animals in her house, threatened and told her to move.
Volunteering, that turned into a registered organization:
Shalini volunteered with People for Animals (PFA) in Bareilly with Menaka Gandhi. After months of volunteering, she was motivated to start her own organization, Mercy for All Society.
How Mercy For All Society started:
As of now, there are over 70 animals in Shalini’s shelter. These include dogs, cats, cows, donkeys, monkeys, and even birds. The shelter is located 15 km away from her house and Shalini travels there twice everyday.
How can you help?
Running an animals welfare shelter has enormous overhead expenses. Shalini has 4 helpers that she pays- this takes over Rs 27,000 a month. Food for the animals crosses Rs 60,000. Including electricity and medicine, the costs run up to over Rs 1 lakh a month.
Shalini has braved the odds to fight for her belief that animals deserve to be treated right. She has battled threats and abuse in her fight.
Shalini is looking for Rs 2 lakhs to help her in the running of her shelter. Your contribution can make a difference in the lives of animals that are treated by this loving lady. Contribute now!

The story of a abused soul's enlightenment 💝
8th March 2017
The story of a abused soul's enlightenment 💝A cold night I remember was someday of December I was going to purchase food for my babies with my auto driver. Yes , it was quite dark 7 o'clock I guess. Suddenly I saw a fresh flesh piece running here n there totally insane. Stray dogs were running after that piece of blood n flesh barking. OMG he was a dog too. I was shocked looking at his head with no skin.
I asked my driver to stop immediately n show some light at him. "Ma'am wo bahut ghayal hai kaat lega aapko mat jaiye uske pass " he uttered. "Koi nahin kaat lene de , par bachana hai use" I went to the Dog n he stared at me with anger in his eyes n he was very restless undoubtedly.
I slowly continued walking towards him. I asked him to calm down n listen to me if he want to be fine. It took almost 15 minutes to convince him. N slowly I kept my hand at his torn neck to call him forward. N unbelievably he came to me n stood by my side very quietly. "Bosco" I called him. Yes he was like a boss. Giant but too weak. But I was surprised that he was listening to my every command.
Then I asked other strays of my neighborhood to keep quite n not to harass him any more n they all stood aside watching what is going to happen now.
I opened my gate n took him in. Maaa my daughter shouted. "What r u doing ??? He is not going to survive , he is finished." "Let me try beta" I tied him by his back because his neck was totally finished by maggoted wounds. Thousands n thousands of maggots were there in his wounds. Head , ears , neck totally eaten up. But I remembered my Guru's name n started his treatment.
My daughter's friends said that it is next to impossible to treat a case like him. Ask aunty to leave him somewhere outside but my daughter said just wait n watch to them.
Aloevera , turmeric , coconut oil , topicure , antibiotics , painkillers , calendula , glycerin , healers , prayers n everything I tried in his case.
Mary Bliss took the responsibility of his treatment. She sent the required money for his treatment via Western Union regularly n a day came after 4 months when he was the boss of his lane once again.
Today when I met him he came running to hug me n I thought I should share this beautiful rescue story with u all. And I need your support as well for more creatures like this.
