Feeling dizzy about the animals I am seeing around! Summer is scorching, people are boiling and burning in the hot mercury. We consume a lot of water, drinks, fruits etc to keep ourselves hydrate in this hot summer.
Then what about those creatures...which born like us on the same planet, breathe like us, eat like us, live and die like us! Yes, I am talking about animals, abandoned animals on the streets - dogs, cows, cats, goats etc.
We enjoy variety food, neatly cleaned, cooked and served with lots of clean water, but these animals don't have at least bore water to drink.
We wash our clothes and utensils with gallons of clean water, but these animals don't have access to a drop of clean water to quench it's thirst.
We humans, bath daily once or twice with one or two buckets of clean water, some well to do people bath in tubs or swimming pools, but these animals aren't getting a half a bucket of water in this hot summer.
People water their lawns and gardens with tanks of water, but these animals are dying out of thirst.
We use clean drinking water to flush our toilets, but these animals are craving for a few drops of drinking water.
We spend the water as if our birth right, but these animals too have the same right to use water like us.
We humans, selfish humans, pumping all the river water to metros, sourcing it to power plants, industries and other commercial purposes. Water bodies like tanks and bunds are converting to real estate, housing areas.
We see animals on the roads feeding on the garbage dumps. The vegetable markets, fruit markets garbage are the dining for cows. They rush to the markets in the evening to grab their meal. Vendors are little happy, as the rotten and dried veggies are cleaning up with these cows.
However, the cows are craving for water. These cattle are drinking drainage water to quench it's thirst. Dogs and cats feed on the left overs from a slaughter house garbage, however, these carnivores too need water. Most of the dogs are licking the drainage water pits.
It's pathetic! We have a lot of clean water in household, still not satisfied, complaining and fighting for more water. Then what about these animals! they don't have access to a drop of drinking water.
In addition, 40% of water is wasted due to leakage of pipes everyday. We are wasting water through mismanagement as well.
Humans wants are unending! We, humans have become so selfish; never care the fellow creatures, instead making them shelter-less, killing indirectly.
There is point percent population working towards these abandoned animals, like - 'Goushalas', 'Bluecross', and some small NGO's taking care of orphaned and abandoned animals.
We can give a small hope to these animals by -

We can give a small hope to these animals by -
- Placing water in containers at public places (like water camp for pedestrains).
- Construct mini tanks in the areas near by markets
- Place water on the terrace for birds.
- Keep change left over water every day, and refill it with clean water.
- And do not waste water, save water!
