Coronavirus – All news – Blockade: Tips to protect pets, dogs and cats, of coronavirus, but also what their owners should pay attention to during the walk during the period of confinement, says the president of the Panhellenic Veterinary Association and vice president of the Pan-European Federation of Private Veterinarians, Athena Trachili.
Ms. Trachili, speaking on APE-MPE’s “Agency 104.9 FM” radio station, He stressed that when “we take our dog for a walk, we do not allow strangers to pet him at this time, since someone can carry the virus. We must not allow this, even if the dogs and cats are not sick. “
He also said that when there is a case in a family “the animal must be handed over to the owner in a state structure or to another family for shelter or contact their veterinarian to find a solution.” At the same time, he recommended paying attention to cleaning and washing the pet’s lower limbs, after the walk, with “the right antiseptics and not bleach!”
However, during quarantine, dog owners don’t just go for a walk, as Ms Trachili said: Leashed cats were also observed in the first quarantine. When we found out about the confinement, several cat owners asked us if there is a specific path, a saddle or a collar, so that they can take their kitten for a walk ”.
Finally, he advised animal owners to go to the country’s veterinary clinics, which remain open during this period, only for absolutely necessary examinations, while due to strict measures they must be accompanied by a person and not by the whole family, such as was the case in the past tense.
