There are so many pet parents rising in Thane city . But I feel what is lacking is pet awareness as people just buy pets and end up in abandoning him. Here we are playing with the emotions of the pets as they find it difficult to forget their first owners and become sad for life. Humans are selfish they always apply"use and through policy "but animals are very clean minded and find it very much difficult to adjust with a new person and a new home and then they loose interest in life.So before buying or adopting one must be very sure he or she is really keen in spending their next 15 years and dedicate  them sacrificing their self interest so this is not repeated again  .As a vet I guide them not to go soon for buying a pet but  spend active time at a pet resort,pet hospital so they know the complete picture !
