Dr Faffa Malan chats to Rian about being a "virtual vet"
Updated | By Nkhensani Manabe
Dr Faffa Malan is a qualified vet whose work is mainly in the agriculture space. He spoke to Rian about some of the more interesting aspects of his job.
Landbou introduced a "Vra vir Faffa" section to its website in 2005, where readers could log on and ask Dr Faffa Malan all their burning questions about taking care of their animals. The page became so popular that it warranted its own book, and Vra die Veearts - a compilation of the most common questions and answers from the website - was published in 2010.
Dr Malan is known as the "virtual vet" and he continues to share his extensive knowledge with Landbou readers up until today.
He visited Rian on the Scenic Drive to answer a few listeners' questions.
People phoned in to talk about their exotic pets, and Dr Malan answered each question with a dose of good humour. A few comments from listeners:
