Monsoon shelters for stray dogs are being established in Bandra, Khar and Santacruz. These shelters will provide a dry resting place for not only stray dogs but also cats struggling to find refuge during the monsoon season. These shelters will be moveable cages and can accommodate two to three dogs at one time. Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction) leader Rahul Kanal of the I Love Mumbai Foundation said, “As a pet parent, I understand the difficulty our four-legged companions face in finding dry resting spaces during the monsoon. 

This inspired us to set up small shelters for these animals in Bandra, Khar, and Santacruz. We are fully responsible for maintaining hygiene and sanitation around these shelters and have ensured they are not placed near residential structures without the necessary no-objection certificates from the concerned citizens and buildings. I am grateful to MLA Ashish Shelar-ji and all the animal lovers who are supporting this initiative."
