Egypt Vet Care
Worldwide Vets is committed to providing free veterinary care for working horses and donkeys, to alleviate suffering and improve their welfare and comfort. We also work with shelters to provide free vet care, and within the community to improve the lives of farm animals.
In Cairo, Egypt, thousands of working horses, donkeys, and mules endure grueling conditions with little access to veterinary care. Many suffer from lameness, wounds, malnutrition, and exhaustion due to overwork and poor living conditions. At Worldwide Vets, we provide free veterinary treatment for working equids, ensuring they receive the medical attention they desperately need. We also operate free sterilization and vaccination programs for rescued shelter dogs and offer medical care for subsistence farmers’ livestock (goats, chickens, cows) to support struggling communities. Your donation can provide lifesaving treatment, prevent suffering, and improve the welfare of Egypt’s most vulnerable animals.
