About

Az R-WAPI Magyarország első integrált állatvédelmi és állatjóléti ökoszisztémájának lakossági alkalmazása. Az applikáció abban segít, hogy bajba jutott állat esetén gyorsan, közérthetően és biztonságosan tudd, mi a következő helyes lépés. Az R-WAPI segítségével: végigvezetünk a legfontosabb teendőkön; megtalálhatod a közeledben elérhető állatorvosokat; elérheted az állatvédő szervezeteket és menhelyeket; hasznos, könnyen érthető információkat találsz az állatvédelemről és állatjólétről; segítséget kaphatsz abban, hogy felelősen reagálj egy sürgős vagy bizonytalan helyzetben. Az R-WAPI nem helyettesíti az állatorvosi diagnózist vagy ellátást. Célja, hogy segítsen eligazodni, amikor egy állatnak segítségre van szüksége. Az állatoknak csak mi tudunk segítséget hívni.
