Vadodara Centre for Animal Rescue and Emergency (VCARE) is a Compassionate, Rational & Non-political Animal Welfare organization working out of Vadodara.
Compassionate
Many stray or abandoned animals require medical attention and a safe shelter when ill or young and we need to be compassionate in dealing with them. VCARE works towards alleviating their misery by providing veterinary services, a shelter and conducting educational and sensitization programs for the public at large.
Rational
VCARE believes that love for animals and concern for their welfare can exist only in a rational environment and by scientifically working towards lifestyles that are less exploitative of animals and methods that are more humane and do not believe in fanatical or emotional distortion of reality in order to project its own image. Problems in animal welfare issues where there are conflicts of interests in animal welfare issues must be resolved through education, counseling and consensus.
Non-political
VCARE is not affiliated to any political party and is not influenced in its acts or work by any political or religious expediency and carries out work only for the well-being of animals.
Mission
VCARE believes that it can be instrumental in preventing cruelty to animals. Our dream is to provide a secure and dignified life to strays such as dogs, goats, cows, cats, buffaloes, monkeys, donkey, pigs, vultures, kites and other birds. We are working towards providing a facility to treat them when they are ill or injured, protect them till they recover and are able to fend for themselves, attempt to re-home them, and alleviate their distress. We try to achieve this through a multi-level approach, which consists of various activities including the following:
Providing medical assistance to injured and distressed animals especially strays
Education and awareness programs in schools, clubs and housing societies
Sterilization and inoculation against rabies for dogs: (stray & pets)
Providing an animal ambulance service
Counseling pet owners
Vaccination camps for cattle and other animals
We are in the process of setting up an animal shelter and a fully equipped hospital. This will enable us to provide effective medical care to animals and give support and assistance to their owners
