Where lost paws find a path home
The New Indian Express Dharmapuri
|January 05, 2025
OST in the urban labyrinth of Coimbatore, where shadows cling to broken bodies and spirits, stray animals wander, their cries swallowed by the city's relentless hum. Forgotten, abandoned, they navigate a concrete jungle that offers little solace, their eyes reflecting the harsh realities of survival. But even in this symphony of indifference, a melody of compassion breaks through.
The Planetic Foundation, a trio of hearts interwoven with empathy, hears those silent cries, transforming despair into hope, one paw print at a time.
Unlike many organisations that focus solely on sterilisation and stray dog management, The Planetic Foundation takes a unique approach. Their shelter serves as a sanctuary for animals with severe disabilities, offering a permanent home to those who are amputated, visually or hearing impaired, bedridden, or battling cancer and other illnesses.
The foundation is committed to providing lifelong care for these animals, ensuring they have a safe and loving environment for the rest of their days.

So You Think You are an Empath?
In this epoch of information overload, we watch a thousand crises unfold every day, where the sacred mixes with the profane at top speed, where the latest war updates are followed in quick succession by clips on how to wear a mekhela chador the proper way, how to make naan on an overturned tawa, what Ji Chang Wook said at the Gucci launch. This is popcorn for the brain, a topic I have addressed in an earlier column; we ingest everything, gulp it down, then move quickly on to the next snippet. Who really has the time to linger?
