In the bustling streets of Delhi, a young woman is making a remarkable difference. Jigyasa Dhingra, a 20-year-old resident, has dedicated her life to the welfare of stray animals, ensuring they receive the care and love they deserve. Her journey began eight years ago with a simple yet profound act of kindness, and today, her organisation, PawsInPaws, stands as a testament to her unwavering commitment.


At just 12 years old, Jigyasa experienced a heart-wrenching loss when her favourite stray dog passed away due to a lack of medical care. This tragic event ignited a passion within her to help stray animals, leading to the birth of PawsInPaws. Since then, she has been on a relentless mission to feed, sterilise, and rescue stray animals across Delhi, Noida, and Gurugram.



Despite facing numerous challenges, including harassment from locals who disapprove of her efforts, Jigyasa has never given up. Instances of people breaking flower pots and shattering her car window have not deterred her. Instead, she has collaborated with local carpenters to construct roadside shelters, providing much-needed protection for stray animals against Delhi’s harsh weather conditions.



PawsInPaws currently cares for over 170 stray dogs and cats, offering them food, medical care, and a safe place to stay. Jigyasa’s tireless efforts have transformed the lives of these furry friends, giving them a chance to live a healthier and happier life. Her organisation runs entirely on donations, and despite the financial struggles, she continues to push forward with her mission.



Jigyasa’s story is a powerful reminder of the impact one person can make. Her dedication and compassion have not only improved the lives of many animals but also inspired others to contribute to this noble cause. If you are moved by her story and wish to support her mission, you can make a difference by donating to PawsInPaws.


It’s truly moving to see how Jigyasa’s efforts have not only provided essential care but also transformed the lives of these vulnerable creatures. PawsInPaws operates solely on donations, which highlights the importance of community support in sustaining such noble causes. Jigyasa’s story is a powerful reminder of the difference one person can make and the impact of collective kindness.



If her dedication resonates with you, there are several ways to contribute and help her continue this vital work. Supporting PawsInPaws can ensure that more stray animals receive the care and love they desperately need. Your support can help Jigyasa continue her mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome stray animals, making Delhi a kinder place for its homeless animals.
