What does this word mean to you?
At Umeed - it is probably the heaviest one. When you visit our center - we have this painted on one of our walls - "Rescue is nod just a verb, it is a promise." (see below pic)
Well back in 2015 one of our ex staff members just wouldn't believe "not" is with a 't' ! Haha .
Leo (model in pic) is on his side too!
And this is essentially the promise - the trust that these injured and abandoned animals have given us - that they'll be saved from their agony, loved, fed and live a happily ever after without being hurt or abandoned ever again.
Everyone associated with Umeed in any way learns this as the first thing. And many times it is what can shatter our souls, our worlds when we are unable to live up to it - and the kid just leaves this world without much of those promises fulfilled.
Kiwi (top most picture) came into this world with that trust too. Like all our rescues do. In August of 2020, his world came crashing down in a flurry of confusion and hurt when he was just left to survive on the road in Gurgaon's sector 59, all of 2.5 years in age.
We are not questioning the human's psychological fall out that turns his/her conscience criminal and commit monstrosities such as - murder, rape, steal, abuse, abandon. We have seen the "plenty good" that has been done to serve them justice in the name of "human rights".
We are questioning the humans who are part of the foundation and do not give the victims the justice they deserve and these criminals likewise the severe punishment. Sadly our so called cow worshiping Government neither has any laws that criminate the people who abandon the bovines and neither for the ones that abandon canines and felines.
And then we question ourselves, for in this field - as we say - our rescue is a promise - a promise to put in our 100% for them to have a healthier and happier life. This is the trust in their eyes, their scared fast beating hearts when they sit in our rescue car or van - that,
"maybe now the torture is over?"
"maybe now I'll be with better humans?"
"maybe now I'll get food? water? Some warmth or cool?"
"maybe now my bruises, this hanging tumor, these cuts and infections won't hurt as much?"
"maybe now I can finally take that leap of faith?"
"be free?"
Can Kiwi take that leap of faith? Can all our rescues do that?
We also question you, our dear supporters. As we rely on you the maximum, to at least help us share our causes, the strongest being #AdoptDontShop - our adoption appeals - adoption, food or medical support.
Can you help our dear boy Kiwi answer these questions?
He is the sweetest, gentlest and calmest Lab boy, 2.5 years of age. Please share this post or the ones on our instagram/facebook of him so that his adoption can get maximum reach to all the potential loving families out there.
If you're one of them and are 100% committed to always keeping Kiwi's and our trust together intact , please fill in the google form below -
