The Vetbus is a real bus that takes vets around the city of Istanbul in search of animals to treat.
Stray dogs and cats pampered by real professionals in the mobile veterinary clinic. It happens in Istanbul, where he has been wandering the streets for some time vetbus, a bus on which a team of veterinarians offers assistance (subsidized by the municipality) for street animals in distress. All also through a constant use of social networks.
In fact, through Twitter and Facebook, veterinarians from Istanbul Buyuksehir Belediyesi, the metropolitan city of Istanbul, indicate where they will intervene on a daily basis. It will be there that citizens will be able to bring strays to ensure a cure. Doctors usually stay in a district for a week so that people have time to report more serious situations or take the distressed animals directly to the bus.
A project that began as an experiment and that has now become real and very efficient: less fortunate four-legged friends receive not only a good dose of pampering, but also the most disparate treatments, from vaccinations to sterilizations to the most delicate surgeries.
Dogs and cats that do not have an owner, do not have a roof or a bowl that is always full, so they can receive a little attention and regain some trust in the human race.
The initiative seems to be enjoying some success. On their Twitter account, the IBB vets report that from 5 to 18 August, the most difficult days even for strays in our urban centers, the Vetbus performed more than 5 thousand operations, less complex surgeries and treatments, 1.161 vaccinations, 1.035 microchip installations and 356 sterilizations.
Truly mind-boggling numbers and a truly commendable project! What do you think if it was also borrowed in our cities?
İBB does not leave stray animals alone
