Delhi's Stray Dog Mother: Woman, Abandoned By Family, Dedicates Life To The Voiceless
Last Updated:
Devi Ji has opened a small space for nearly 70 to 80 stray dogs in New Delhi, along with a few cats and parrots.
The Supreme Court has recently directed officials to clear all stray dogs from the streets and move them into shelters. The decision has triggered debates among animal lovers and activists. While this order has divided opinions, the story of a kind woman from Delhi is touching people's hearts. Known as Devi Ji, she has opened a small space for nearly 70 to 80 stray dogs, along with a few cats and parrots. Despite having very little, she chooses to dedicate her life to these voiceless beings, feeding and protecting them every day.
What makes her journey even more moving is her personal struggle. After losing her husband, her own children walked away and left her alone. Yet, instead of giving up, she found comfort in caring for abandoned animals. Recently, her story was shared by a popular influencer, Neetu Bisht, and it has quickly caught everyone's attention. Along with her story, a donation link and address were provided so that people can contribute in any way they wish.
The influencer said, 'Her children left them after her husband passed away. Hearing this brought tears to my eyes. Meet Devi Ji, who takes care of 70–80 dogs in a small shelter. I had come to Delhi. On the way, I noticed many dogs gathered in one place. I wondered where these dogs were living. After asking around, I found out about Devi Ji, who looks after them. Along with the dogs, she also cares for cats, parrots and many other animals."
Social Media Users Praise Devi Ji's Golden Heart
Reacting to the post, a user wrote, 'Earlier I was scared of dogs, thinking they'd bite… but after adopting my pet, I learned they never bite unless they feel their life's in danger…Even street dogs just come close for love, not to harm. This changed my heart completely. Almost all my reels are now about these innocent souls… do check them, you'll feel the love too."
Another shared, 'Thank you for sharing so much love and awareness. And I really wish to Visit her."
'Wish everyone had a heart like Devi mam and you ma'am," a comment read.
Another mentioned, 'This is called peace. This woman has a golden heart."
One more added, 'Influencers like you are needed."
The apex Court asked the stray dogs to be placed in cages due to the rising cases of stray dog attacks on children in Delhi. Some of these incidents were severe, which pushed the court to address the matter urgently.
