St. Kitts Community Outreach Summer 2019

8/30/2019

We teamed up with People for Animal Welfare St Kitts (PAWS) for another successful community outreach event!  PAWS and the One Love Pets St Kitts chapter are made up of students attending Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine.  They volunteer their time between studying and other school obligations to help out the human and animal community that they submerge themselves in while attending school.  It's a way to give back while connecting classroom learning to real life cases.

The St. Kitts community was invited to bring their pets for free medical care including
Physical Exam
Vaccines
Flea and Tick Prevention
Spay and Neuter Sign Ups
Food, Collars, Leashes and other pet supplies
These events are critical in this community where pet care is not always accessible or affordable.  Through events like these, it is the hope that we can make the animal and human community healthier by educating families on proper animal welfare, zoonotic disease and animal husbandry.

Through the hard work of the students and other volunteers the group was able to provide medical care to 239 dogs, 7 cats and 2 monkeys!  An incredible number that we hope will continue to grow as these events become known within the community!


These outreach events however are not cheap!  To continue growing we are always welcoming monetary donations and supply donations! Any little bit helps!

Check out the amazing things that PAWS does and like their Facebook page!

Milo - St. Kitts

Milo was rescued by one of our partner's in St. Kitts - PAWS (People for Animal Welfare St. Kitts).

Milo was missing many patches of hair which was later diagnosed as mange.  Mange is the common name for a disease that can be caused by two different types of mite parasite- Demodex or Sarcoptes.  Both of these mites live in the skin and cause hair loss and itching.  Mange is most common in younger animals and mild cases can resolve on their own.  However, in severe cases like Milo's - daily baths with medicated shampoo and other medications may be recommended by a veterinarian.

After some good ole fashion TLC Milo is in tip-top shape thanks to PAWS and their amazing fosters!

Animals like Milo are suffering from diseases caused by parasites all over the world.

Help us to provide prevention in the healthy and treat the sick!

Merida - St. Kitts

Merida is a 1yr old female dog found as a stray in St. Kitts.  Merida had recently whelped puppies and did her very best to give them all of the nutrition that they needed so that they could be chubby, happy and healthy.  However, she sacrificed her own well-being in the process.

Merida was rescued by an animal rescue group in St. Kitts called PAWS (People for Animal Welfare St. Kitts).  She was emaciated from feeding her litter of pups with little to no nutrition herself.

During Merida's veterinary appointment she tested positive for two tick borne diseases - Ehrlichia and Anaplasmosis.  These diseases amongst the intestinal worms, fleas and ticks also left Merida anemic (low red blood cells).  Thankfully, with a good helping of TLC and appropriate medications to treat her tick borne diseases, dewormer for her intestinal worms and parasite prevention for the fleas and ticks - Merida is starting to climb the long trek up hill.

Merida continues to get stronger each day and is turning into a beautiful dog! 

For more information on Merida and updates check out PAWS on Facebook
