We asked you, dear readers to share pics and stories of your furry companions.
This is what Rediff reader Nitin Dwivedi from Kanpur shared.
"I'm very fond of animals, especially dogs," writes Nitin Dwivedi, who is a hero for street dogs in his area.
"Due to my love for animals, people leave animals in front of my house. I take care of them like my own pets."
Nitin also had a message to share: "People should look after stray animals and help them with medical and food facilities."
We ask you, dear readers to share pics of your pets.
