Rarotonga
Animal Medical Center supports
the Esther Honey Foundation Animal Clinic in Rarotonga, Cook Islands. Dr
Nicholls has visited several times to do mission work, mostly spaying and
neutering. In February, 2003, Dr Nicholls took Karon Johnston and Sandra Cotton along to assist.
The veterinary clinic in Rarotonga was established in 1995 by Cathy Sue Anunsen
of Oregon. Up until that time, there was no veterinarian on the island, and many
animals were killed by the government because of overpopulation.
Since that time, the clinic has spayed, neutered or treated for disease
approximately 16,000 dogs and cats. EHF’s all volunteer staff treats animals -
all at no charge to the people of the Cook Islands.
The Foundation's treatment and Spay and Neutering Programs extend beyond the
clinic doors to the far corners of Rarotonga and to the remote outer islands.
Traveling by freighters and planes, EHF volunteers reach animals who have never
seen a veterinarian and those who are unable to come to the clinic.
