Mangaluru: Animal lover Rajani Shetty climbs down well to save kitten


Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Aug 9: Rajani Shetty, a lover of animals from the city, this time went down a well to save the life of a kitten.

On Sunday August 8, a kitten had fallen into a well near Cascia High School here. Locals Atul and Sandeep who heard the kitten crying for its life from inside the well, contacted Rajani Shetty as they were aware that she saves and looks after many street dogs and goes to any length to save the lives of dying animals.

Rajani reached the spot along with husband, Damodar Shetty. She got down the bottom of the well by holding the rope and succeeded in bringing the kitten out. It may be re called that when a dog fell into a big well during the previous lockdown, Rajani had saved its life.

Rajani and her family have been feeding hundreds of dogs every day for the last several years. They use over 50 kg of rice to feed the dogs. They also care for the animals like dogs, cats, birds which get injured either after coming under vehicles or other reasons, even though they do not have enough space. Rajani, who does adventurous things to save the lives of animals, has become popular because of her sympathy for animals.

    Langooji,USA,dont worry our Poolanchi Devi from kirem is harmlos.She may shoot only some mosquitoes.Second to save a kitten need not get down to well.Need only let down a basket and in water.Direct it towards the kitten.it may jump towards in it.One shouldnt amass animal love of cooking for so many street dogs.So that they may multiply .They are a menace later.

    I have identified about 50 pigs, 100 donkeys and 200 mice. If any such organisation is there to feed them, please come forward. Otherwise stop this stunt of feeding stray cats and dogs. Instead feed destitute children and poor beggars, old age homes.

    If you look at the pic, the lady is thinner and the husband looks stronger physically, he has to lower her and pull her out. That could be the reason she decides to go into the well, also she has full faith and confidence in her husband. A good couple...Made for each other...

    Animal lovers can be veg or non veg, but people should realize that animals have brains,can feel pain, have emotions. They are more faithful than humans.By saving a life a good deed is done, one should not kill animals for food, there are better, healthier and tastier alternatives in veg food, BTW I am a vegetarian.

    Even tho this act shows her bravery and love for animals it should not be promoted. There are highly trained firefighters who the couple should have called. This had a equal chance of it turning fatal for the lady.....

    Form who is stopping you. Go on Kundapur -Karwar road .. see how many are wandering on road posing danger to drivers. You can save those cows. Drivers die by accident because of these cattle left on roads that is ok. But you want to save cows not human beings. Insane mentality

    We should all appreciate Rajani Shetty for feeding the stray dogs and keeping them strong and aggressive. Would she take responsibility if these aggressive stray dogs attack gullible street children or any pedestrians and cause injury?

    Animals will be aggressive only if they are hungry .She is feeding them and taking care of them and makes sure that they will not harm humans .I am sure she might be also doing sterilization of stray dogs to control stray population . Please appreciate the hard work of rescuers like her .If you don't want to help stray animals then please don't hurt them .
