In the park of the La Nevada neighborhood, in commune five of Valledupar, the second Comprehensive Pet Care Day organized by the Government of Cesar was held. Nearly 600 felines and canines were vaccinated with anti-rabies doses.
“All these activities are important because these little animals that are part of the family environment deserve good care. And that is what we want from the government that we do it better: that the culture of vaccinating them and caring for them is implemented in each of the Cesarean homes”, said the head of Social Policy, Juan Carlos Mindiola.
During the day, 600 packages of litter for cats were donated to foundations and animalists dedicated to the care and rescue of kittens in different sectors of the capital of Cesar.

With these activities, the commitment to the comprehensive welfare of animals in the department is reiterated.

We are on behalf of the animal rights activists, infinitely thanking them for these actions and hopefully they continue in favor of the most vulnerable animals”, said Isis Ramos, animal rights activist from Valledupar.
