Merna Emad, a veterinary student from Egypt participating in our European Solidarity Corps project, has completed her two-month program and returned home. During her time there, Merna provided medical care and support to sick and needy cats and dogs at the Gerze shelter and the ones under our care. She assisted with sterilization and various surgical procedures, provided medication to the team, and took on tasks in the patient room. In the patient room for animals under our care, she provided extra attention to animals requiring special care, including administering medication, cleaning, feeding, and closely monitoring their condition. She was also responsible for a group of over 70 cats living in the village, visiting them daily to feed, clean, and monitor their health. Her duties in the village included checking for any signs of illness, such as loss of appetite, low activity, or unusual behavior. In addition, she cared for three dogs in the village. She also had the opportunity to spend a week at the Academy Animal Hospital in Samsun, where she worked with experienced professors and specialists. She had the opportunity to observe complex and critical cases. This experience taught Merna a great deal about crisis management, teamwork, and especially the importance of precision during surgery. Through this activity, she encouraged open thinking and discussion, questioned approaches when necessary, and evaluated different perspectives. Thanks to Merna’s work, care has been provided for many of our beloved pets. We thank Merna very much for all her dedicated work.
