Home / Our Work
Rescue is the easy part. Picking an animal up off the road takes an hour. Getting it healthy, safe and permanently home takes months — and money. Here is exactly what we do across Islamabad and Rawalpindi, and what it costs.
We respond to reports of animals hit by vehicles, injured, poisoned, trapped, abandoned or abused. A volunteer travels out, stabilises the animal and transports it to veterinary care.
Typical cost: Rs 2,000–6,000 per rescue in fuel, transport and first response.
Wound management, fracture repair, amputations, tick fever and parvo treatment, drips, deworming and long courses of medication — plus the weeks of nursing that follow.
Typical cost: Rs 5,000–25,000 per animal depending on severity.
Community dogs and cats that don't need rescuing still need to eat — especially through winter. Consistent feeding also keeps animals healthy and easier to catch for sterilisation.
Typical cost: Feed is our single largest recurring expense.
The only humane and effective way to control street animal populations and rabies risk. Animals are neutered, vaccinated, ear-notched for identification and returned to their own territory.
Typical cost: Rs 6,000–15,000 per animal including anti-rabies vaccination.
Animals too injured, elderly or traumatised to return to the street live at our sanctuary in Shah Allah Ditta, with food, shelter, ongoing medication and human company.
Typical cost: Ongoing, every single day, for life.
Talking to schools, neighbourhoods and online audiences about humane treatment, why culling fails, why sterilisation works, and what to do when you find an animal in distress.
Typical cost: Mostly volunteer time — and the most valuable thing we do long-term.
A few minutes of the right first aid can be the difference between a rescue and a recovery of a body. Please read this before you move the animal.
Please note: we are a small volunteer team and cannot reach every animal, especially outside Islamabad and Rawalpindi. If we can't come, we will try to guide you to someone who can.
A frightened, injured animal may bite. Approach slowly, speak softly, and don't corner it against traffic.
An animal in shock or with internal injuries can choke. Offer water nearby and let them choose.
If it's safe for you, slide the animal onto a blanket or flat board. Support the spine. Never pull a limb.
A WhatsApp photo plus a dropped pin saves us the most precious thing we have: time.
These are the four things that consume almost everything we raise.

Reaching rescues, running feeding routes and getting animals to the vet.
Kennels, fencing, bedding, cleaning supplies, water and repairs.
