Introduction to Our Monthly Animal Health Inspection

At our farm, ensuring the wellbeing of our animal residents is a top priority. Each month, we hold an animal inspection day, which is vital for monitoring health and providing necessary treatments. This month, we welcomed our dedicated veterinarian, Dr. Peter, who meticulously checked all the rescue animals under our care. His expertise and attention to detail provide peace of mind, as they allow us to address any health issues that may arise promptly.

Dr. Peter's Assessments and Treatments

During his visit, Dr. Peter conducted thorough examinations of each animal, ensuring they were in good health. It is critical for us not only to observe their physical condition but also to implement preventative care measures where needed. Given our commitment to providing rehabilitation to rescue animals, timely interventions are paramount. The checks included necessary vaccinations, parasite treatments, and overall health assessments. We are pleased to report that all the animals are now in better shape, thanks to Dr. Peter's diligent work.

Taking Care of Our Donkeys

One of the highlights of our monthly inspection was the specialized hoof treatment for our donkeys. This month, Papa Malaika, one of our beloved donkeys, required special attention for his scratched hooves. It is essential that we treat such injuries promptly to prevent further complications. We were fortunate to have a skilled farrier on hand to provide the necessary hoof care. The farrier's expertise ensured that Papa Malaika's hooves were well taken care of, setting him on the path to recovery.

Thanks to the generous support from some tourists visiting from Diani Beach, the hoof treatment for our donkeys was sponsored. We deeply appreciate the kindness of animal lovers who contribute to our cause. Every donation, regardless of size, significantly impacts our ability to sustain our care for these animals. These acts of generosity allow us to provide high-quality medical treatment and ensure that all our animals receive the love and care they deserve.

In conclusion, our monthly animal inspection day is not just a routine check but a crucial event that reinforces our dedication to animal welfare. With Dr. Peter's expertise and the support of compassionate donors, we can continue to provide the best possible care for our animals, ensuring they lead healthy, happy lives. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who supports us in this mission, and we look forward to more productive days caring for our beloved rescue animals.
