Bollywood's Dabangg actress Sonakshi Sinha has recently join hands
with the animal rights organisation People for the Ethical Treatment
of Animals (PETA) India to stand for the rights of the homeless pets.
Ahead of the International Homeless Animals' Day, Sona did a
photoshoot with PETA India urging all to adopt street dogs and cats.
The actress has also asked fans to take care of sterilising the animals.
"Breeders, pet stores and people who don't sterilise their animals are
responsible for all the animals who end up homeless," Sonakshi said in
a statement.
The PETA ad has Sonakhi seen sitting with her canine friend Bambi with
a tag line which reads, "Envision a World Without Homeless Dogs and
Cats. Adopt a dog or cat from an animal shelter, and always get your
animal companions sterilised."
The photograph has been shot by leading photographer Russi Modi.
Sonakshi and PETA India want all prospective animal guardians to avoid
greedy breeders and pet shops, which only make the homeless cat and
dog crisis worse and to adopt their animals from a shelter or take in
a cat or dog from the streets instead.
"Every time someone buys a dog or cat from a breeder or pet store, a
homeless animal roaming the streets or waiting in an animal shelter
loses a chance at a home and a good life," added the 26- year-old.
