Te Are Manu (Cook Islands) Inc. is a local charity operating the only veterinary clinic here in the Cook Islands. Te Are Manu Veterinary Clinic relies solely on donations from the local community and overseas visitors to the Cook Islands in order to provide veterinary services to Rarotonga and the Pa Enua (outer islands).

 Covid-19 has meant no overseas visitors and therefore no volunteer vets and vet nurses, and less supplies being donated. This has had a significant impact on the way Te Are Manu Veterinary Clinic operates and will have lasting effects into the future.

Our ongoing mission is to provide charitable and affordable veterinary care to the pets and their people within the Cook Islands. We thank all of our supporters, past and present, as it is their generosity that has allowed us to continue to provide our veterinary service during such trying times.

The Kia Orana Podcast was created as a result of lock down Covid restrictions, in 2020.

In this episode, we sit down with Captain Brendon Nicholas who just got back from the outer islands. He spent a portion of his time split between Mauke, Atiu & Mitiaro. Known locally as Nga-Pu-Toru in the Cook Islands. If you thought Rarotonga was small at around 9,000 people, wait until you hear about these islands.

But what the smaller islands lack, they also have a richness of what people truly need—an abundance of fresh fish, multitudes of quietness, and the myriad of stars to see at night as it is so dark on the little sister islands.

Captain Brendon would like to thank Mr. Don Beer (aka Trader Don) the Cook Islands Fishing Association and partners for the opportunity to travel and experience the Nga-Pu-Toru group.

Haydn and Chantal sit down together to recap the past month or so. The Cook Islands was on their summer break (as they are south of the equator) and Haydn is in relative quarantine still in America, with COVID cases still on the rise. 

The Cook Islands and America are bookends when it comes to the pandemic. The Cook Islands still has zero, as in 0, cases of COVID while America broke the charts with the amount of cases within its borders. 

Kind of the state of our countries + some Christmas tales and more!

Cheers,
Haydn
