TABOGA ISLAND, NOVEMBER 2009

Together with  Los Angeles de los Animales and the residents of Taboga, especially Jesus and Susan; Spay/Panama sterilized, dewormed and vaccinated 127 animals (39 dogs and 88 cats).  


This is the boat that transported 5 operation tables, 5 surgical lamps, autoclave, anesthesia machine, scale, 15 cat traps, 40 spay packs, medical and surgical supplies, water, sodas and 5 staff members to Taboga


The five went on top of the cargo.
The boat belongs to the Honorable Representante Marcos Delgado.  The fuel was donated by the residents of Taboga
   

Taboga Island is very pretty

Preparation



We had 20 young trappers that worked diligently.  Almost all the cats operated were trapped.  Four were brought to Panama City for adoption, the rest were released in the same area where they were trapped and one was put down because it was very sick.



We need your help to improve the quality of lives of the animals and the guardians.  The young generation has to be educated on responsible ownership of animals.

During the operations, $176.10 was collected or the equivalent of $1.39 per animal.  Jesus got some funds donated to pay for the fuel to transport the equipment and $30 to apply towards the $84 spent to transport the staff.
Through Los Angeles de los Animales, we got some cotton, 1 box of syringes, 1 box of gloves, 2 Q-tips, and other items donated


It costs Spay/Panama $18.80 to operate a dog and $9.60 to operate a cat.   This does not include the cost of mobilizing the staff and surgery equipment to the offsite location.



Please consider donating the cost of a dinner...get your family and friends to join you and remember always that together we can make a difference.
