Dear donor and friend, it’s time to celebrate!!! The credits are all yours, and we are happy to announce that we just reached our goal of 200 spayed/neutered strays and ferals. This number is limited to the dogs and cats of our community in an Andean village. As I told you in our last report, we also participate in some “Big Ones”, where a great number of animals is sterilized in remote areas within one day. Now we are heading to the magic number of 300, and we just started with the preparations for an awesome spay/neuter week in October or November. That’s where Paulina comes in, a polish vet volunteer and globetrotter. She offered her help and together with a local vet and some volunteers, we hopefully manage to sterilize another handful of strays. Due to an outbreak of distemper, we bought 70 vaccines and started vaccinating the local strays in the centre of the village. We register them all and knowing exactly which animal is spayed/neutered (the majority is not), we already know our target goup and can easily capture them. So, stay with us to read about our experiences in our next report. Thank you!!!
