The Animal Welfare Response Team is undertaking both door-to-door assistance and community engagement to mitigate the impact of the extreme weather on local pets and livestock.
Today, the team, comprising dedicated volunteers, ventured into the metros inundated neighborhoods, focusing on the key priority of keeping animals safe from the rising waters.
We checked where animals were being kept and advised owners on how to better protect them from the rising waters, Animal Welfare Society said.
