Head of Setiabudi District KPKP Unit, Lidya Erika said the vaccines were given to 60 cats and 14 dogs.
"Our target also includes other pets, such as monkeys and civets. However, because these two animals are rarely kept as pets, the most dominant species are still cats and dogs," she said, Thursday (4/23).
