Be it pets or strays. Owning a dog is treated as a status symbol in our society but parenting them is not really looked into. This is heart-wrenching! With the sole motive of improving the health conditions of animals, Wiggles came into existence. Petcare is a relatively new field in India and we want to devotedly concentrate on it. Social media is extremely important in today’s technology savvy world. People are more updated through social media than even the news. Social Media is a vital tool for any brand to engage and interact with their audience with an emphasis on community creation. Our social media strategy has always focused on striking a chord with pet parents and pet owners and shedding light on the importance of pet healthcare in today’s world. 10 What code of conduct do you swear by? Petcare, petcare and petcare! That is what we profoundly believe in and walk our talk. Wiggles is an altruistic brand and we will always be the same. 11 What do you believe is the general attitude of the new pet parents towards their pets. Pet parents in India are gradually becoming more aware about pet healthcare than ever before. This is a good sign! We wish to simplify pet healthcare like never before. Preventive healthcare is our path and we strive to make pets healthier and happier in this journey!
