Save Abandoned Cows from painful death in Gujarat.

The wet season is the time of year when most of a region and average annual rainfall occur. In the wet season, air quality improves, freshwater quality improves, and even animals have adaptation and survival strategies for the wet season. Every year we experience our busiest time during the monsoon - the heavy rains make everyday tasks much more of a challenge. Road accidents increase during the monsoon and the major victim of these unfortunate incidents are the stray animals, mainly cows. Without proper shelter, food and care their health deteriorate drastically and become prone to various types of diseases like injuries, skin infection, flu etc. in one hand pouring rain and muddy roads play a significant role in the accidents and on the other hand the heavy weight of these large species makes the recovery sluggish. 

Last month we have received a lot of injured cows and calves in our facility. Some of the injuries were recoverable and some of them are in serious condition. Our team of doctors worked hard to relieve their pain with proper medication and treatment. Once they regained their health, we have shifted them to a large species shelter for their betterment. 

Here is a treatment summary of our ‘Save Homeless Cows in Gujarat’ project for August’21.

Imagine you're a 5-year-old child. You're a little human who depends on your parents and family for everything. One day you catch the stomach flu, a nasty case. You're throwing up, you can't keep any food down, you have diarrhea, and your stomach feels like someone is tieing it in knots. You're alone and in pain and scared of what will happen to you next.
Like this many cruel owners abandoned the calves when they get injured or diseased. The calves are finding them helpless and succumbed to death due to a lack of food, water, and care. Severe dehydration is one of the most important factors in increasing mortality associated with diarrhea in calves. Dehydration, loss of electrolytes is the biggest problems with scouring calves found in Ahmedabad due to the unpredictable weather change and rapid urbanization, animals especially the abandoned cows and calves find it difficult to cope up and stuck in one place.
‘Chandi’ is a beautiful young female calf was found all alone in pretty bad shape. She was severely dehydrated, weak, and bloated. She had liquid diarrhea and wasn't interested in food or drinking because she was in so much pain. We brought her in and immediately set her up on IV fluids, and to our surprise, the next morning she was up walking around! She was introducing herself to all of her new friends. ‘Chandi’ is still a bit weak and lethargic, but in just one day her stool has improved. We hope she feels comforted and safe with us while she recovers.

Dear Friends, we have been able to save many others like Chandi with your kind support, but there are many left who are suffering every day. We need to reach them too. Please share our story with your friends & family, so they can also join their hands. Together we will be able to save more and more lives and make a better future for our next generation.
Remember, we can only have a better life when every living being gets a chance to survive.
