šŸš ROARā€™s Mobile Initiative: Moving Forward

Municipal Support for the Census

In September, we met with Mayor Ron McNab, the Vice Mayor, Waste Management Director and municipal Social Media Director to discuss the animal census.

The municipality supports the effort and offered approximately 20 phones for use with the Worldwide Veterinary Service census app. A meeting with community leaders, known as patronatos, is planned for mid-October to help coordinate participation.

We are now working on phone readiness, app setup and training arrangements. The census will help us identify priority areas and measure progress.

Why One Area at a Time?

Periodic clinics provide valuable care and prevent unwanted litters. ROARā€™s Mobile Initiative will build on that work by focusing on one mapped area at a time, reaching the level of sterilization needed to reduce overpopulation and returning regularly to maintain progress.

ROARā€™s Mobile Initiative will use sector sweeps, focusing on one mapped area at a time until we reach a high level of sterilizationā€”known as saturationā€”then returning for maintenance.

Education and advance visits will help prepare the area and identify animals needing treatment before surgery. Tracking coverage will show where more work is needed.

The Mobile Clinic Opportunity

We are continuing to assess the 2006 LaBoit mobile veterinary unit introduced last month. Independent vehicle and veterinary-equipment inspections are proposed for late October or early November.

No deposit or purchase commitment has been made. Inspections, transportation, import arrangements and fundraising remain part of the process.
