Kane
By Lisa | November 9, 2008
Vet nurse from Australia
Kane was with KCAP from February 2008 Until August 2009. His compassion for the animals was outstanding. He was at the clinic 4 days a week and it was a delight to see his smile in the morning. His learning and understanding while studying with Dr. Edda Hoffmann was amazing. Kane’s medical development grew by leaps while working at KCAP. He would assist with 4 surgeries in a row and not even complain !! We will miss him dearly and wish him all the best in the future.

How to help with donating supplies
By Lisa | February 18, 2008
We are also in need of donations such as: surgical instruments, drapes, suture material, surgical staples, surgical glue, medicines and anything else that can be spared.
Please talk to your local veterinarian or hospital. Ask them if they have any medical supplies that they would like to donate to a charity animal health care center in Thailand.
If you collect any supplies, contact Lisa (mcalonie@hotmail.com) and she will inform you of the best way to send to us.

Mr. Sompong works for the Ministry of Livestock in Thailand. He helped us out by coming in once a week to do flank spays on female dogs. He was our only “paid” surgical staff. We taught him important English phrases like..”You the man !!”. He, his wife and their daughter live on the mainland. We hope to see him stop in for a visit.
