🕯 Monday Minute – Remembering Dr. Mu’ath Talat
Today, we pause to honour the life of Dr. Mu’ath Talat, a veterinarian in Gaza whose compassion for animals continued even in the most dangerous and devastating of circumstances.
Dr. Mu’ath treated injured horses, donkeys, cats and dogs — not because it was easy, but because it was right. When others saw danger, he saw a life worth saving.
His dedication reminds us of the true heart of veterinary medicine:
To relieve suffering
To serve without expectation
To show kindness even when the world is unkind
💔 His loss is felt deeply across the global veterinary community.
May his legacy inspire us to use our skills with empathy, to support one another, and to never forget why we chose this profession.
