Zigly Pet Care Celebrates Third Edition of
International Happy Pets Day, Strengthens Access to Proactive Pet Healthcare
Across India
New Delhi, August 02nd 2026: Zigly Pet Care, India’s first omnichannel pet care
brand, celebrated the third edition of International Happy Pets Day (IHPD)
across its centres nationwide. Building on the success of the previous
two editions, the annual celebration, coinciding with Friendship Day, brought together
pet parents and their furry companions to celebrate the special bond they share
while promoting pro-active pet healthcare. During the event, Zigly Pet Care
also reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening India’s pet care ecosystem by
making quality veterinary care more accessible, integrated and community-driven.
The day-long celebration, hosted at 35 centres in 15+
cities across the country, witnessed the participation of over 2,500 pets and more
than 3,500 pet parents. Under the theme “Life is Simply, Undeniably Better
Together,” International Happy Pets Day 2026 featured a range of engaging
experiences for pets and their parents, while encouraging proactive healthcare
with complimentary
health check-ups and wellness consultations. The event also marked the launch of Pet First Aid
Kits, reinforcing the brand’s focus on proactive pet healthcare. As part of the
event, pet parents also participated in the veterinarian-led pet first aid workshop,
where they learned essential emergency care techniques. The
occasion also saw the expansion of veterinary-led services, with the Noida centre
being upgraded to a 24x7 veterinary facility and the Defence Colony centre receiving
dedicated veterinary services. Adding to these services, primary & secondary care such as diagnostics,
X-rays, upgraded surgeries, and physiotherapy have also been introduced in the DLF
Lucknow & Basant Lok centre.
Commenting on the occasion, Saurabh Jain, CEO,
Zigly Pet Care, said, “International Happy Pets Day has always
been about celebrating the unconditional love between pets and their families.
This year, we wanted to build on that purpose by placing proactive pet
healthcare at the heart of the celebration. Alongside bringing pet communities
together, we are expanding our veterinary ecosystem through upgraded 24x7
facilities, dedicated veterinary services across more centres, and the launch
of Pet First Aid Kits. Together, these initiatives reflect our vision of
creating India’s most trusted and comprehensive pet healthcare ecosystem, where
pet parents can access quality care, expert advice and essential healthcare
services whenever they need them.”
To make the event more interesting, a diverse lineup
of games such as Snuffle Mat challenge, Best Trick Showdown, Pet Bingo, among
others strengthened the bond between pets and their parents. To keep these
memories alive and celebrate the journey so far, pet parents also enjoyed the
caricature and photo booth sessions. The celebrations culminated with the Zigly
Pet Care Awards, recognising inspiring stories from the pet community, followed
by a group celebration that brought together pet parents, creators and animal
lovers.
Further
strengthening its commitment to community animal welfare, Zigly Pet Care also
announced the launch of Zigly Cares – nutritious dry food created for community
dogs. Available in 100 gm and 1 kg packs, 100 percent of the proceeds from
every pack sold will be used to support the welfare of street animals. This
also enables every pet parent to contribute towards the wellbeing of community
animals through their everyday purchases.
Adding
purpose to the celebrations, 100 percent of the proceeds from International
Happy Pets Day ticket sales, worth INR 6 lakhs, were handed over to the Zigly
Foundation. The proceeds will help to support initiatives such as anti-rabies
vaccination, deworming, reflective collar drives, rescue efforts, and
facilitating adoptions for community dogs. As Zigly Pet Care’s flagship annual
community initiative, International Happy Pets Day continues to unite pet
parents, veterinarians, creators and animal lovers while creating meaningful
impact beyond pet care by supporting the wellbeing of community animals.
Through International Happy Pets Day, Zigly Pet Care
continues to evolve beyond a pet care retailer into a comprehensive pet
healthcare ecosystem. By combining celebration, education, expanded veterinary
infrastructure, proactive pet healthcare and community engagement, the brand is
creating an integrated care journey that supports pets and their families at
every stage of life while advancing its vision of making high-quality pet care
more accessible across India.
