Notably, the Small Animal Hospital is a first-of-its-kind and spans over 98,000-square-foot, across 5 floors with a capacity of over 200 beds in Mumbai's Mahalaxmi. It is being constructed for ₹165 crore and will offer top-notch healthcare services to animals. The team is led by Thomas Heathcote, a British veterinarian who has relocated to Mumbai for this cause.

''A pet is no different from a member of one's family today. As the guardian of several pets throughout my life, I recognise the need for this hospital," Mr Tata had said in February while discussing the hospital.

Mr Tata's fondness for dogs is well known, as he often posts pictures with his furry friends on Instagram, and regularly gives a shoutout for a dog up for adoption. He also has a story highlight on Instagram named after his late pet dog Tito. In addition, the global headquarters of Tata Group has a special kennel dedicated to stray dogs living around the area.
