Support Senior and Special Needs Animals in Bangalore
Our Geriatric Centre is a sanctuary for older and special-needs animals who are often overlooked. You can give them a life of dignity and comfort by becoming a passive adopter and sponsoring their daily care.

"So tell me... are you the one I'm looking for?" Lakhan is looking for a special human to sponsor him while he lives in his retirement home with us.
About The Golden Years: Our Senior & Special Needs Animals
Passive adoption is not just a donation. It is a commitment to the long-term well-being of a specific senior dog or cat, covering their specialized diet, chronic medication for conditions like arthritis, and the daily care provided by our MGC team, with the added benefit of weekend visitation rights.
Life at the CUPA Geriatric Centre
Our Geriatric Centre (MGC) in Mylappanahalli, Bengaluru, serves as a safe haven for senior, disabled, and special-needs animals who have been abandoned, abused, or simply forgotten due to their age. While puppies and young dogs often find homes quickly, our seniors—like Lakhan, Tahira, and Bhaskar—often wait much longer for the love they deserve.
What Passive Adoption Covers
When you passively adopt a resident, you aren't just sending money; you are funding the reality of aging for a rescue animal. Your contribution directly covers:
- Dietary Needs: Soft, nutritious food tailored for older digestive systems.
- Chronic Medication: Daily pain relief for arthritis, supplements for heart health, and specialized care for conditions like visual impairment.
- Hygiene and Comfort: Daily cleaning of living quarters, grooming, and comfortable bedding in our dry, secure kennels.
- Medical Monitoring: Routine weight checks and mobility assessments by our on-site veterinarians.
Why Your Support Matters
We believe in science, not fear. We know that aging animals require patience and specialized attention. By sponsoring a senior, you allow us to maintain a high standard of living for those who cannot easily transition to a standard home environment. As a sponsor, you also gain exclusive access to visit your adopted senior during weekends. This human connection is vital; it keeps our dogs socialized, happy, and feeling loved. Whether it is a senior Indie with a limp or a blind dog who just wants a gentle hand to guide him, your support ensures their golden years are peaceful, safe, and filled with affection.
