New Tulum Animal Clinic Launches Sponsorship Program

In Tulum, Quintana Roo, the Alma Animal Shelter has opened a new veterinary clinic. The aim of this clinic is to control the population of stray animals and to prevent cruelty to animals. The clinic, located in the Las Palmas neighborhood, is performing sterilizations on stray cats and dogs. They have also introduced a sponsorship program to cover the costs of these procedures.

Sandra Torres Sabido, the head of the shelter, explained that the launch of this clinic is the result of years of effort. The clinic will be open from Tuesday to Saturday, offering the community a chance to have their pets sterilized at a significantly lower cost than the usual market rate, which can be over two thousand pesos.

For those interested in learning more about preoperative instructions, sponsorship for sterilizations, or donating medical supplies and volunteering, they can reach out to the shelter at 984 157 4948, as stated by Torres Sabido.

In addition to this, the Alma Animal Shelter has also started a "Sterilization Sponsorship" campaign. This campaign is targeted at individuals who want to help reduce the stray animal population or assist pet owners with limited resources to sterilize their pets. The initiative has been warmly received by the local community, and it is hoped that more people will support this worthy cause.
