Alyona Shapovalova

Assistant

I love animals and have wanted to become a veterinarian since school. I had a cat at home, and I would bring all the stray animals home: cats, rodents, and dogs. My parents wouldn’t let me keep them all — and it was exactly in those moments that I realized I wanted to dedicate my life to animals. After 9th grade, I enrolled at Lypkovatovka Agrarian College in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine. After graduating from college, I went to the State Biotechnological University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, to continue my education in veterinary medicine. Currently, by education, I am a veterinary paramedic. I am expanding my knowledge by taking various courses in endoscopy and gastroenterology. Now I have a dog, a cat, a rat, chinchillas, and a gecko living at home.
