Because Bangalore’s Pet Scene is Purrfectly Unforgettable!
Bangalore is known for its laid-back lifestyle, cool cafes, and of course, our love for pets! Whether you’re a proud dog parent or a devoted Persian kitten lover, the city is bursting with events that cater to every type of pet parent. If you’re looking to meet fellow Bangaloreans who get your love for pets (and your obsession with puppy filters), then you’re in the right place! Here’s your ultimate guide to pet events in the city that’ll make you go, “How did I not know about this before?”
1. The Bangalore Pet Show (Koramangala) What It Is: The Bangalore Pet Show is the city’s biggest celebration of all things furry. Think of it like a fashion show, but instead of models, you’ll be ogling the finest dogs, cats, and exotic pets strutting their stuff. There are also stalls with pet products, grooming services, and even adoption drives for those looking to add a new member to their family. Why You Should Go: Besides getting some serious pet inspo, it’s the best place to meet local breeders (perfect for when you’re hunting for that Persian kitten) and pamper your pet with treats and toys. Funny Quote: “It’s like Namma Bengaluru’s version of Paris Fashion Week—except with more fur and fewer high heels!”
2. Pawsitive Vibes Pet Meetups (Indiranagar) What It Is: A relaxed meetup for pet lovers where you can bring your dog, cat, or just come to meet others with a passion for pets. It’s all about socializing your pets in a controlled environment and enjoying some down-to-earth bonding time. These meetups usually happen in parks or pet-friendly cafes, so you can sip on your filter kaapi while your dog plays fetch! Why You Should Go: It’s a great way to meet fellow pet parents, exchange tips on everything from training to grooming, and watch your pet become the social butterfly they were born to be! Funny Quote: “If your dog’s social calendar is busier than yours, you’re officially a Bangalorean pet parent!”
3. The Great Bangalore Dog Walk (Cubbon Park) What It Is: Every month, Cubbon Park hosts a dog walk where you and your pet can take a leisurely stroll through the greenery, all while chatting with fellow dog parents. Whether you’re into fitness or just want to show off your pup’s latest leash, it’s the perfect place to meet like-minded pet lovers. Why You Should Go: It’s an event where your dog can get his daily walk without worrying about Bangalore traffic. Plus, the park is a great spot for your pet to make new friends and you to meet others who might actually understand why you talk to your dog like a human. Funny Quote: “Forget Bangalore traffic, just walk with your dog in Cubbon Park. At least there’s no honking… just the sound of paws and the occasional bark!”
4. Pet Adoption Drives (Various Locations) What It Is: Every so often, animal welfare organizations in Bangalore host adoption drives where you can meet adorable, adoptable pets from shelters around the city. These events usually take place at popular hangouts like Vapour in Indiranagar or The Humming Tree in Indiranagar. Why You Should Go: Whether you’re looking to adopt or just want to lend your support to animal welfare, these events offer an opportunity to interact with pets in need of loving homes. Plus, you’ll meet some seriously dedicated pet parents who love sharing their adoption journeys. Funny Quote: “Adopting a pet in Bangalore is like adopting your own little celebrity. They’ll have more Instagram followers than you!”
5. Bangalore’s Pawsome Pet Carnival (MG Road) What It Is: A fun-filled carnival dedicated to pets, where your four-legged friends can indulge in games, competitions, and even pet fashion shows. There are also food stalls (because your dog loves biryani as much as you do, right?), and special pet-friendly activities that will make your pets feel like the true stars of the event. Why You Should Go: This carnival is all about having fun with your pet. You can participate in exciting pet activities, shop for pet gear, and even get professional pictures clicked with your fluffy sidekick. Plus, it’s the perfect event to flaunt that new Persian kitten of yours! Funny Quote: “It’s like going to a carnival, but with less crowd and more pet selfies!”
6. Yoga with Your Pet (HSR Layout) What It Is: For all the yoga enthusiasts who also happen to have pets, this is the event for you! Join a community yoga session where you practice your asanas while your pets relax beside you (or attempt downward dog in their own style). These pet yoga classes are a great way to de-stress for both you and your furry friend. Why You Should Go: After all that hustle and bustle of the city, a calming yoga session with your pet is the perfect way to unwind. Plus, you’ll get some much-needed bonding time with your Persian kitten or playful puppy! Funny Quote: “Yoga with your pet: because who doesn’t love a good stretch with some paws in your face?” Conclusion Bangalore is the ultimate city for pet lovers, where pets are more than just animals—they’re family!
