Ratan Tata Encourages People To Give Stray Animals Shelter During Monsoon, Internet Supports His Plea
In a viral tweet, Ratan Tata expressed his concern for the lives of stray animals during the monsoon season and encouraged people to look below their vehicles before starting their cars and speeding off.
Monsoon has hit harder than most years. The streets of India have been clogged with overflowing water from the violent rain showers. While such a situation can prove to be a hindrance to the daily lives of working city-dwellers, flooded streets can even become fatal to some creatures.
Ratan Tata Appeals To People To Give Shelter To Strays During Monsoon
Guess who's spreading the word about such misfortunate creatures on social media? It's none other than the famous Indian industrialist, philanthropist, and ex-Chairman of Tata Sons, Ratan Tata!

In a post that touched the heartstrings of many on Twitter, Tata highlighted the significance of giving these vulnerable creatures a safe shelter, especially when it's pouring cats and dogs outside.
When the rainy season arrives, it's like an invitation for stray cats and dogs to seek shelter under parked cars. Now, Tata, the animal-loving guru, has some smart advice for all of us. Before you hop into your car and hit the pedal, take a moment to check underneath. In his tweet, Tata reminds people that these furry friends might be hiding there, totally oblivious to an automobile¡¯s antics.

The Internet Completely Agreed With Tata's Plea
People agreed with Tata¡¯s words. One user noted how some small acts of kindness can make all the difference in the world. They also echoed Tata¡¯s words and agreed to give thought to the lives of the strays before speeding off in vehicles.

As the monsoons pour down, our cars become accidental shelters for stray cats and dogs.
Before you head out, be their guardian angel, check under your vehicle, and offer a safe haven when the raindrops fall.
Another lauded Tata for his compassion for the stray animals.
Showing compassion towards stray animals during monsoons by checking for their presence and offering temporary shelter is heartwarming and kind.

Great share ?@RNTata2000
While one shared how they take care of the stray dog near their home. They shared visuals of two different shelters they had made for the dog. One for summer with a pool of water to keep the dog cool while the other is a shelter from rain during monsoons.
