Paw-sitivity Rescue

Rahul Sharma, the founder and driving force behind Farishtey, an NGO for animal care gets candid about his work and journey in an interview with Surabhi Goel.

1. Being a consultant and a veteran photographer, what sparked your interest in Farishtey?

One day I came across a puppy on the street who met with an accident. I brought him to my home and got him treated by a vet. I felt that they were a part of society and deserved to live. That was what piqued my interest and I started to care for these dogs. It all started with three to four dogs under my house. Now we are a family of 300. It fascinated me to a level that even my whole family is into Farishtey now.

2. What is the procedure for rescuing and feeding the animals? 

Homeless animals struggle and often go hungry or get into accidents in search of food or shelter. So, to make their lives a little easier we provide food to them and tend to the injured by providing them with free ambulance services with spot treatment regularly. If needed send them to foster houses for treatment with all the expenditure paid by Farishtey. Once the animal is recovered, we send them back to its original place.
