World Animal Day

World Animal Day provides an opportunity to highlight the close relationship between animal health, welfare, and veterinary care. This webinar explores practical considerations for promoting animal well-being across companion animals, livestock, and other animal populations. It covers preventive healthcare, nutrition, appropriate housing, disease prevention, pain management, welfare assessment, behavioural needs, and quality-of-life considerations. The discussion also highlights early recognition of health concerns, timely veterinary intervention, and the role of veterinarians in promoting better welfare outcomes. By bringing health and welfare considerations together, the session emphasizes practical ways veterinary professionals can support animal well-being and strengthen standards of care across different species and settings.
