“The number of stray animals which are out there  – dogs and cats – far outnumber the demand for pets. Sadly, few people want to adopt strays and it’s tough to find a good home for them,” says Bollywood actor Sidharth Malhorta, who is the latest star to lend his support to PeTA.

Featuring in a new advertisement to encourage the sterilization of strays, Sidharth adds that by, “Spaying or neutering (sterilizing) dogs and cats, one can save the lives of countless unwanted puppies and kittens.”

The actor reaches out to his fans through this advertisement and hopes that they will take the lead in having the stray animals in the locality where they live, spayed and neutered.
