Raveena Tandon Says, “Our Pets Are the Heartbeat of Our Home”

Bollywood actress Raveena Tandon recently expressed her thoughts on the Supreme Court’s decision to revise its order on stray dog relocation across the NCR. She welcomed the move but stressed that authorities must act quickly on vaccination and sterilisation drives. Sharing her own feelings, she wrote, “Our pets are the heartbeat of our home.” For Raveena, this is not just an emotional line but also a reminder that animals deserve protection and care.
Her statement reflects a sentiment that many Indian households relate to. Pets are no longer seen only as companions but as family members who provide comfort and emotional support. Raveena’s words highlight not just love for pets but also responsibility towards strays, especially in tier-2 cities where community members often step in to feed and care for them.
Such remarks also put pressure on civic authorities to act with urgency and empathy. In smaller cities, stray welfare often depends on a handful of animal lovers and NGOs, but without structured vaccination and sterilisation, the problem persists. When celebrities raise their voice, it helps bring more visibility to an issue that directly affects both communities and animals.
The larger message here is clear: pets are more than just animals living with us; they are part of our emotional fabric. For families, they bring stability and joy, and for society, they remind us of the value of compassion. Raveena’s heartfelt note shows that caring for pets and strays is not just a private responsibility but a public one too.
