Founded on the streets of PCMC and Pune, Paws Life Welfare Foundation represents a collective dream: that all animals deserve a life of quality, absolute respect, and free from distress and hunger.
Under the active guidance of our passionate core founders, we operate as a unified volunteer community. Together with hundreds of compassionate hands and hearts, we provide immediate critical rescue care and daily meals to stray dogs and cats.
"Dedicated to restoring empathy and safety for stray animals in Pune."
To rapidly respond to stray animal distress calls across Pune, providing state-of-the-art transit medical rescue, anti-rabies immunity, and clean, nutritious street feeding drives.
A society where citizens and stray animals coexist in total harmony, with streets 100% free of rabies, violence against strays, and where stray shelter adoption is the first choice.
Building robust citizen networks in local schools, apartments, and communities to nurture deep empathy for all living beings, ensuring street dogs are loved, not feared.
