In the heart of Mumbai, where hundreds of stray and rescued animals find refuge, one shelter has achieved a remarkable transformation. Within just a few months, the facility saw a 57% reduction in infections among its animals—all thanks to one innovative change: switching to PetnCare’s Water-Based veterinary products.
The Challenge: Rising Infections in a High-Density Shelter
Like many urban shelters, this Mumbai facility faced constant challenges with skin infections, paw irritation, post-surgery complications, and environmental hygiene. With animals often recovering from trauma or malnutrition, even minor infections could quickly escalate.
Despite following standard protocols and using alcohol-based disinfectants, the team struggled with:
Skin irritation among sensitive animals
Delayed wound healing due to product harshness
Odor issues from bedding and common areas
Stress and agitation in animals post-application
The Solution: Switching to PetnCare
In early 2024, the shelter partnered with PetnCare to test a new, alcohol-free hygiene protocol using Japan’s first water-based pet care line. The products introduced included:
Skin Infection Care Spray
Surface & Paw Disinfectant
Wound Healing Spray
Odor Repellent
All products are 100% alcohol-free and formulated specifically for animal use.
The Results: Cleaner, Healthier, Calmer Animals
After just 90 days of integrating PetnCare products into their daily care routines, the shelter reported:
✅ 57% drop in infection rates (across skin, paws, and minor wounds)
✅ Faster healing times post-surgery and injury
✅ Noticeably calmer animals during wound or paw care
✅ Reduction in harsh chemical smells in treatment and sleeping areas
✅ Higher staff satisfaction due to easier application and improved animal response
“We were amazed,” said the shelter’s veterinary officer. “The shift to water-based care didn’t just reduce infections—it improved the animals’ comfort and our caregivers’ morale.”
