OUR PARTNERS
A number of organizations, groups, and individuals work tirelessly, usually with few resources, and donating many hours, to help sterilize dogs and cats, as well as to bring the animals comfort, love and safety, and address their medical needs. The board met with various people instrumental in these day-to-day efforts and learned about their history, their accomplishments, and their needs to sustain and expand their work. After listening to their stories and volunteering at their campaigns, Furry Tails of Oaxaca decided that funding their efforts in providing access to free sterilization for dogs and cats would best alleviate the suffering of street animals. The organizations are well run and managed, respected in their communities, provide jobs to local vets, and educate the people about the importance of sterilization and proper care of animals.
We are excited to partner with the following organizations!
GET TO KNOW OUR PARTNERS
Atrapas Gatos Oaxaca
Atrapa Gatos Oaxaca primarily traps feral or street cats and takes them to veterinarians or campaigns to get sterilized. Two women, Jazmin and Sandra, started Atrapa Gatos in 2019 and soon learned how great the need was to address the street cat population. People contact Atrapa Gatos Oaxaca via their Facebook page to inform them of cats in need of sterilization or medical care.
