Two days stuck, and one call that changed everything

For two long days, he was stuck, helpless and waiting. We don’t know how many people passed by or how many saw him, but no one came forward.

Then one kind person picked up the phone and called us. That single call brought our rescue team to him, and today he is finally safe at Swarg, our animal hospital and shelter in Ahmedabad.

His story is a reminder of how much one call can do. If you see an animal in distress, please don’t walk past. Call our helpline on +91 9106270731 and we will do everything we can to reach them.

This reel follows one of those journeys, from Swarg back home, carrying healing and hope.

When the sun burns, we’ll be your shade

“Je tenu dhoop lagya ve, toh main chhaaon ban jaava”: if the sun burns you, I will become your shade.

That line sums up how we care for the youngest animals at Swarg. When they feel the hunger, we become their food; when they feel the pain, we become their comfort.

Here, one of our team bottle-feeds a young goat.
