For World Animal Day, the Nevado Mission carried out a national mass sterilization day called “Castralat”. This initiative has managed to serve more than three thousand dogs and cats throughout the country, with a highlight in the Plaza de la Candelaria in Caracas.
The president of Misión Nevado, Maigualida Vargas, reported that the day has been held in more than 57 points nationwide, with the aim of improving the care and well-being of animals. Vargas highlighted that this effort has been possible thanks to the support of the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, allowing the care of more than three thousand animals throughout the territory.
In Caracas, veterinarian José Roa, a member of Misión Nevado, pointed out that more than 700 animals have been treated during the day held in the Plaza de la Candelaria. Roa highlighted the high receptivity of the community, with the participation of 200 veterinary doctors and 600 volunteers in this activity.
The “Castralat” event reflects Misión Nevado’s commitment to animal health and well-being. During this coming weekend, this activity will continue to promote the control of the pet population and the prevention of diseases.
