Compassion · Community · Change
A complete, integrated & humane approach to community animal welfare — from identification to shelter and protection.
Why This Ecosystem Matters
India has over 35 million stray animals suffering from disease, injury, and hunger. GOCAF's five-program ecosystem addresses every stage — from first rescue to permanent protection — through science-backed, humane, and community-led action.
Your support creates a ripple of compassion that transforms lives across communities.
To create a cruelty-free society where community animals live with dignity, safety, and freedom.
We bring together feeders, societies, volunteers, veterinarians, governments, and technology to create a structured, lawful, and compassionate animal welfare ecosystem.

Catching community animals is ONLY legal in 4 cases under AWBI & ABC Rules: Rabies suspected/confirmed · Severe illness/injury · Repeated unprovoked aggression · As per AWBI & ABC Rules. False complaints hurt animals and misuse the law. No Proof = No Catch.
GOCAF's zero-abandonment framework works with housing societies and authorities to create support systems so no owner needs to abandon their animal.
We map every feeding spot, register every feeder, and ensure no animal goes hungry in our zones. 38 registered feeders feeding 200+ animals daily.
GOCAF mediates disputes, runs awareness programmes in RWAs and schools — replacing fear with understanding and confrontation with governance.
GOCAF registers feeders legally, provides documentation kits, offers legal guidance, and connects feeders with a city-wide support community.

Deepthika Palati — Founder & Director, GOCAF
"Every animal's life has value. Every voice that speaks for them matters."
GOCAF was founded with a simple yet powerful belief: community animals deserve freedom, dignity, and protection — not conflict, fear, or neglect. Across cities, towns, and villages, animals live alongside us every day. They are part of our shared ecosystem and our shared responsibility.
Over the years, I have witnessed how lack of awareness, misinformation, and absence of structured systems lead to unnecessary suffering. GOCAF was born to bridge this gap.
Our approach:
To every volunteer, partner, feeder, resident, and supporter — thank you for choosing compassion with responsibility.
