The Story in Brief
Actor Nushrratt Bharuccha, who is marking International Cat Day, has shared the story of how her two rescue cats, Peanut and Butter, came into her life. She now has three cats: Noah and the two sisters, after one of her four cats passed away.
Bharuccha told Hindustan Times that a friend's building cat had given birth to six kittens on the road. After the friend could not find them homes, she convinced another friend to adopt two, but he had to relocate from Mumbai. Unwilling to leave them on the streets, she took them in, and they eventually became her own. "We are a family of four now," she said.
The Indian Opinion
The feel-good cat story hides a harsher truth about pet abandonment in Indian cities. Bharuccha's tale is the exception: most strays are not so lucky. The real test is whether adopters think twice before taking on a pet, and whether cities fund more shelters and sterilisation drives. Until then, every International Cat Day is just a photo op, not a solution. Watch whether her friend's building cats were spayed, and ask if yours are.
