Donated Medications Help Galapagos Pets

IMG-20250926-WA0009Since opening its veterinary clinic on San Cristóbal Island, World Vets has provided care for nearly 7,000 dogs and cats on the island, including thousands of spay/neuter surgeries that have improved animal health and helped manage the local pet population. In addition to surgery, every patient receives a comprehensive health examination and preventive care to help keep pets healthy long after they leave the clinic.

A generous donation of Centragard for cats from Greater Good Charities has played an important role in these efforts. The donated parasite preventatives have been administered to hundreds of feline patients, protecting them against fleas, ticks, and internal parasites. To extend the benefits beyond each visit, pet owners are also sent home with a 3–6-month supply of follow-up doses, helping ensure continued protection and healthier pets across the islands. We are grateful to Greater Good Charities for helping make comprehensive preventive care accessible to families throughout the Galápagos.
