At Global Strays, we are working to address the fundamental root causes of animal homelessness, one being the lack of proper, safe, and efficient spay and neutering programs. Many pet owners across the globe want to properly care for their animals, but lack the resources to do so. In the countries we work, the majority of animals wind up homeless & on the streets, since families cannot care for all the litters of puppies or kittens their pets produce. 

At our most recent clinic on October 22nd, 95 animals were spayed or neutered from several Nicaraguan communities, for pet owners who could not otherwise afford it.

We choose these communities because of the overwhelming amount of stray animals, but also because members of these communities reach out to our partners for help with their pets. Providing access to veterinarian services makes it easier on families trying to provide their pet with a happy, healthy life, and it keeps the homeless animal population down. 

As a global community, we are faced with a major issue of animal homelessness. We can reduce the number of homeless animals drastically by spaying and neutering our animals, and supporting initiatives to do so in other communities.

Don't let your impact stop with spay or neutering your household pet - encourage your communities to take initiative and have clinics providing this service, and educate your community members on why this is crucial if we want to see euthanasia & stray animal numbers dropping.
