The Process
How your support helps
Rescue
Our field team responds to injured and abandoned animals across Mumbai, seven days a week. Every animal receives immediate care — no animal is ever refused.
Treat
At our Malad hospital — 100-bed capacity, ICU, operating theatres, digital X-ray — vets treat wounds, fractures, and illness. Every treatment update is posted to the animal's page.
Release, Adopt or Sanctuary
Healed animals return to their streets or find loving homes. Those who can never go back live out their lives at our 10-acre cage-free sanctuary in Kolad, home to 500+ animals.
Why we exist
“Animals deserve dignity and care, just like humans.”
— Ganesh Nayak, Founder, Animal Matter To Me
Ganesh began rescuing animals as a schoolboy, inspired by his mother Jaya Nayak, who devoted her life to saving every species. In 2010 he founded AMTM to scale her mission. Today AMTM runs a full veterinary hospital in Malad and a cage-free sanctuary in Kolad — and has never turned an animal away.
Right Now
They need you right now.
Chole
Chole is a male cat who was rescued in a critical condition, suffering from a severe maggot-infested wound, extreme weakness, and complete loss of appetite. The wound had been neglected for days, allowing maggots to cause extensive tissue damage and leaving him in immense pain. Upon admission, our veterinary team immediately began emergency treatment, including maggot removal, wound cleaning, pain management, antibiotics, IV fluids, and assisted feeding to stabilize his condition. Chole remains under close medical supervision, receiving daily wound dressings, medications, and nutritional support as he slowly regains his strength.
232 days under care
Maw
Maw is a resilient ginger feline who has survived a horrific and deeply painful ordeal. He was found with a massive, severe, open wound tearing across the right side of his neck and face, exposing raw tissue and matted with dried blood. This extensive injury left him vulnerable to severe infection, profound dehydration, and extreme physical exhaustion.
28 days under care
Boots
Boots was rescued in an extremely critical condition, suffering from severe maggot-infested wounds. The infestation had progressed to such an extent that much of the tissue on one of the hind legs had been eaten away by maggots, leaving a deep, life-threatening wound.
