We provide free/by donation medical emergency service and medicines to the any of the needy animals of Yelapa. We put great emphasis on controlling cat and dog populations by providing free/by donation spay and neuter clinics every 6-8 weeks to the Yelapa community. We currently have approximately 50 plus animals in our sanctuary of all descriptions (that are constantly changing as animals are released into the wild, fostered or adopted.) This, of course, depends on raising the necessary funds to pay clinic rent, buy animal food, medicine and to pay our consulting veterinarians (who work at extremely reduced rates for surgeries and often consult for free to help our 100% non-profit project).
We can not do the work we do without our supporters kind hearted donations (you can donate via PayPal under money to family and friends send to yelapaanimalproject@gmail.com) We often have animals up for adoption that have been rescued and rehabilitated in our sanctuary and are looking for their forever homes. Please click here to check out our adoption page!
Our main volunteers, Jerry Davies (30 year vet tech extraordinaire) and Dana Hutson (passionate animal advocate, rescuer and emergency vet tech trainee) consult with our vets, caretake and run the animal sanctuary, coordinate and administrate the animal clinic, rescue animals and raise funds needed to operate this non-profit project. Sounds like a big job and it is, however, we can’t close our eyes to an animal’s need or suffering. Compassion and love always finds a way💗
Contact Dana Hutson at yelapaanimalproject@gmail.com for more information about how you can get involved.
If you would like to adopt an animal, are available to foster or would like to come and volunteer with us please contact Dana Hutson for more information at yelapaanimalproject@gmail.com
You can check out our facebook and instagram pages for semi regular updates and pictures (Sorry, we are a small upstart and are often so busy feeding, walking, attending the clinic and administering meds that we don't get to FB and Instagram so much, but we're working on it and welcome any volunteers who could help ;-)
