HOW DID YOU THINK OF HAVING A PET IN YOUR LIFE? WHEN DID PARR COME INTO YOUR LIFE?

Parr is our first pet. We have always been animal enthusiasts. Three years back, life had turned a li’l monotonous. Then came a moment when we got a new home; it was our new beginning, so we decided to have a pet. Parr came in our life on 21st October, 2018. We were elated to have her in our life.

WERE YOU BREED CONSCIOUS WHILE SELECTING YOUR PET?

No, not at all! We were open to anything. We just wanted to have a pet in our life. Moreover, it was a wonderful surprise for both of us. Our dad asked us to dress up as we need to go somewhere. When we reached somebody’s home, he told us that we have come to take our pet home. We were really surprised. Our family is very fond of her. In fact, she sleeps with our parents.

WHAT DO YOU GENERALLY FEED HER?

Initially, it was Pedigree and Royal Canine gravy. But over the period, we noticed that she had started shedding more and had got some skin issues as well. So we shifted to home-cooked food for her. Cooked rice, boiled eggs, and chapatti is her favourite meal.
