1063. Medicine for stray dogs and cats in Cambodia







Hi, I'm Agnes. I was in Siem Reap, Cambodia recently, distributing stationery, clothes and food to the children.
I'll be visiting again from 27th July to 5th August. The purpose of this email is to enquire if you would be able to donate some much needed medicine to Katie, the only Western vet nurse in Siem Reap, she's rescuing and treating dogs and cats on a voluntary basis. I can link her up in the email if necessary, she's requesting the following:


Drontal worming preparation
It’s in tablets – for deworming cats
Over the counter
Nutrigel (vitamin paste/syrup)
It’s for dogs and cats
Over the counter
Calcium in the form of small bones
For dogs
Over the counter


Clavulanic acid/amoxicillin (clavulox) 50mg
It’s in tablets form. It’s an antibiotic for cats
On prescription? Over the counter?
Cephalexin 50-60mg
It’s also in tablets form, and also an antibiotic for cats
On prescription? Over the counter?

Hope to hear good news, thank you!


Regards
Agnes


E-MAIL REPLY FROM DR SING DATED JUL 6, 2012
I am Dr Sing from Toa Payoh Vets. We spoke today. There are generic drugs which can be used rather than branded ones as requested by Katie and are much less expensive when sourced from Thailand.
Pl ask the vet nurse to contact me by email and let me know more about her work with stray dogs and cats.
