Pet owners, especially those with dogs and cats, often find themselves constantly worried about their beloved animals. When they fall ill, finding suitable transportation to take them to the vet becomes a frequent challenge.

To address this issue, an ambulance service for pets was launched for the first time in the country on February 15. The service aims to ensure that no pet suffers due to the lack of transportation.

Chairman of 'Susthota' Angelo Afnan Hamid shared his personal experience, saying, "One of the most terrifying moments for any pet owner is when their pet falls ill. I had a pet dog, and since I didn’t own a car, I had to rent one to take my dog to the vet. Many drivers refused to take him, stating they didn’t allow pets in their vehicles. I faced this situation countless times, and that’s when I realized that, just like humans, pets need a dedicated ambulance service."

Co-founder and CEO of 'Susthota,' Mejbaul Amin, said, "This ambulance service, available nationwide, will help take your pet to the vet, whether it's close by or far from the city. The service charge is the same as other regular ambulances."

"Our goal is simple—no pet should suffer due to lack of transportation. Whether it’s an emergency or a routine check-up, we are always here to help. You can pre-book the ambulance service anytime at www.susthotaa.com or call 09601 222 777 for emergency services," he added.
