Help Me Continue Treating the Street Cats in My Care
My name is Sapna Dedhiya, and for over a year I have been independently rescuing and caring for stray cats on the streets of Mumbai. I am not an NGO or an organisation, just someone who couldn't walk away when an injured or sick animal needed help.
Over the past year, I have spent more than ₹1,00,000 on veterinary treatment alone, not including food, transport, and other day-to-day expenses. My regular veterinary clinics have been kind enough to offer me discounted rescue rates because they know my rescue work, but even with those discounts, the costs have been significant.
Until recently, I managed everything from my own income without asking for public support.
Unfortunately, I recently lost my job. At the same time, I have several cats already under my care who require ongoing veterinary treatment, including repeated visits for severe maggot wounds and FIV-related care.
These are not new rescue cases. They are lives I have already committed to, and I cannot abandon their treatment halfway.
To continue their treatment, medicines, and follow-up care, I need to raise ₹70,000. I have maintained records of my veterinary expenses over the past year and will continue sharing bills and treatment updates so that every contribution is used transparently and solely for the cats' care.
Asking for help has never been easy for me. If you are able to contribute, no matter how small the amount, it will make a real difference. And if you are unable to donate, sharing this fundraiser would mean just as much.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for giving these cats a chance to recover. Every bit of support gives them hope.
