At the time of writing this article, 9 470 pipettes have been distributed across South Africa. In 2020, CVCs registered with SAVA-CVC sterilised more than 16 000 cats and dogs and provided 41 000 vaccinations and 45 000 endo/ecto parasite treatments. All owners are requested to pay something towards the treatments for their animals but the difficult economic conditions in 2021 are challenging. Virbac’s donation is ensuring that CVCs can continue their important work.
