In disaster zones, human life is at risk and unfortunately, animals also suffer. In this podcast, we discuss this topic, as well as moving on to discuss the concept of "parental leave" for owners whose pets are unwell.

Pet-pourris: from pets in disaster zones to humans taking sick leave to care for pets

I am a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating my love of my work through writing, radio,  television and the internet. My mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
I am a partner in a busy 4 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but I spend 50% of my working week on media work. 
I've been broadcasting a weekly "vet spot" on my local radio station, East Coast FM, for the past fifteen years, and I'm delighted, through Soundcloud, to now make this weekly animal-related discussion available globally as a podcast.
