Unifacs is promoting the Pink October Pet initiative, a campaign dedicated to preventing problems related to the mammary glands and reproductive system of female dogs and cats.
The free activities are scheduled to take place in different locations across Bahia. In Salvador, services will be available on October 15th and 16th, while in Feira de Santana, the campaign will run from the 19th to the 30th of the same month.
Throughout the campaign period, animals will receive a physical examination. If necessary, owners will be duly informed about the possibility of undergoing additional tests and receiving specialized follow-up.
Furthermore, the schedule includes detailed guidance on sterilization, taking into account aspects such as the species, age, and specific health conditions of each animal. The campaign also serves to raise awareness about the dangers associated with the uncontrolled use of hormonal contraceptives in dogs and cats.
In Salvador
In Salvador, services will be available on October 15th and 16th, from 8 am to 8 pm, at the CLIVET UNIFACS location, situated at Avenida Tancredo Neves, 2131, Caminho das Árvores. For more information, contact (71) 3203-2649.

In Feira de Santana, the campaign will take place from October 19th to 30th, Monday to Friday, between 1 pm and 5 pm. The service point is CLIVET UNIFACS, located at Rua Rio Tinto, 152, Santa Mônica. Interested parties can obtain information via the number (75) 99954-7446.
Lorena Sampaio, a veterinarian and coordinator of Clivet at Unifacs in Feira de Santana, emphasizes that certain changes can manifest without visible signs initially. For this reason, she stresses that periodic check-ups are essential for early detection of any mammary or reproductive issues.
