Explaining the significance of Zoonoses Day, VMC veterinary assistant surgeon Dr Z Srinivasa Rao said, Domestic animals need to be given the right dose of vaccination at regular intervals. Generally, people focus on nourishment of their pets ignoring provision of medicare at regular intervals to make them immune to various diseases.

It is highly essential to get pets vaccinated for their well-being. The Zoonoses Day reminds pet owners of this responsibility.’’ According to an estimate, there are more than 5,000 domesticated dogs in the city. Some people are raising cats and rabbits also.

Apart from the government veterinary hospitals, several private and social organisations will also hold free veterinary camps at important places in the city to enable people to get their pets vaccinated. VMC staff will also take part in the Zoonoses Day programme.
