Corfu's 100,000 island population and heavy summer tourist inflow support solid veterinary coverage in and around the capital. No single 24/7 hospital exists on the island, but several daytime clinics, a contracted municipal vet, and the Corfu Animal Welfare Society referral network cover most needs; full overnight ICU emergencies require the Athens or Ioannina mainland hospitals.
