Another successful sterilization blitz organized by Spay the Strays with the support of Sr. Luis Ibarra.
173 animals (143 dogs and 30 cats) were sterilized at this event. This brings the total animals sterilized by Spay/Panama in the area of Gorgona, La Ermita, El Higo and San Carlos to 1,283.
Spay/Panama uses the Quick Spay Method, which includes early sterilization (less than one pound), small incision and use of stainless steel suture because it is strong and non-reactive.
People and pets came from neighboring communities.
Spay the Strays offered free transportation.
Working together to make a difference.
The sterilized animals were dewormed, had their ears cleaned, examined for wounds and infections, given an injection of vitamins, spray or dusted for fleas and ticks. All dogs over 3 months old were given a rabies vaccine.
Spay/Panama staff finds it more convenient to sleep at the operation site. Thank you Kris and Pam for Sunday lunch.
No animal is rejected by Spay/Panama if the guardian/rescuer can not give a small contribution. At this event, $341.00 was collected or the equivalent of $1.98 per animal. Spay the Strays will make up the difference for Spay/Panama to almost breakeven.
