One day PFA Agra got a distress call from Mr. P.K Rawat. He informed us that a female monkey near a temple was crying due to intense pain. She was rolling on the ground and the people were hesitant in helping her out due to fear of being bitten by her. No one stepped forward. Luckily for her Mr. Rawat was around and he had PFA Agra's Helpline number. He called us and our rescue team went and brought her to the PFA Agra shelter. On examination, it was found that it was a case of dystocea (the fetus is unable to come out of the pelvic cavity). The head of the fetus was diverted to side wards. The monkey was put under anesthesia and the dead fetus was taken out.
The mother was put on supportive therapy and strong antibiotic coverage for a week. She was lethargic and in a state of trauma due to the loss of her baby. She refused to take food but gradually she was slowly bribed into taking food. She started by taking bananas and then 'Dalia' (broken wheat cooked in water with a little milk added later). This food is light and easily digestible. Within a week, her depression started lifting and she started taking interest. She would come to us and take food from our hands. She then adjusted to a normal life and when totally recovered, she was freed from the bondage of the cage in the area from where she was brought.

PFA Agra Activities
  • Due  to extreme heat and lack of staff we have not had much activity other than routine work. This month Nagar Nigam was not able to provide us with a vehicle for catching dogs for ABC operations hence lesser number of dogs were operated upon.
  • Some pedigreed dogs were left abandoned at our shelter - 3 German Spitz. Old and AbandonedMiss Mini
One we named Miss Mini (picture on the right). She was very friendly and was the gentlest of dogs. She was luckily adopted by a family who always had pets. There she is happy. Another spitz was left at our shelter and being aggressive we were unable to get close to him. Luckily the owner had a change of heart and he took him back. The third is not so lucky (picture on the left). She is very old and was abandoned by her owner. She was left out on the streets from where she was brought to us. It is just a matter of time till she leaves us. We are trying to keep her as comfortable as possible.
