Taipei City Government

Dog and Cat owners are invited to bring their pets to the Pet Blood Drive and Fair taking place at the Vieshow Cinemas plaza on Saturday, August 1.
 
The event will feature health examinations provided by vets, a lecture on health topics related to furry friends, 100 free rabies vaccination opportunities, and a raffle with great prizes! In addition, a total of 10 positions for free pet blood test will be given away, so don’t miss this opportunity!
 
Superintendent Yang from Dr. Robert Animal Hospital will share his knowledge on the blood of furry friends with the audience. Numerous stalls providing services and information on animal health will also be present. The APO also offers free pet registration as well.
 
According to the APO, there is always a demand for the blood of dogs and cats, since transfusion may be required for certain disease or surgery situations involving furry friends. Unfortunately, the low level of dog and cat blood in blood banks lowers to possibility of finding workable matches on short notices. The city government invites pet owners to bring dogs weighing more than 15 kg or cats weighing more than 4 kg and between the age of 1 and 8 to the event to donate blood.
