REACHING OUT TO ‘ROADSIDE ROMEOS'
The New Indian Express Chennai|May 28, 2020
GUARDIAN angels like Kajal fly out to the rescue of our four-legged canine friends, who have become silent victims of the pandemic, and are left unfed and abandoned on the streets. Kajal, a techie by profession, is Dr Dolittle by heart for the dogs that yearningly look at the bikes and cars zipping past them with hopes of a biscuit getting tossed at them.

REACHING OUT TO ‘ROADSIDE ROMEOS'

Making sure that she feeds at least 30-40 dogs every day with Pedigree, Kajal takes her mother Bina or father along, on her mission in and around the streets of Egmore, Kellys and Purasaiwakkam. Extending her service beyond feeding, she nurses wounds of our four-legged friend. She is okay with attachments, as she gives the pooches, names after movie titles and serial characters and make them respond to her roll calls.
