Street cats in Puerto Vallarta

The Challenge

Thousands of cats live on the streets, facing hunger, disease, and danger

Puerto Vallarta's streets are home to thousands of cats who struggle to survive each day. Many suffer from hunger, untreated injuries, infectious diseases, and the constant threat of abuse. Without intervention, the population continues to grow exponentially.

But there's hope. Local volunteers and animal lovers are working tirelessly to change this reality—one cat at a time. Your support can make a difference.

Why Spay & Neuter Matters

The Critical Facts Every Cat Lover Should Know

Explosive Reproduction

One unspayed female can produce up to 3-4 litters per year, with typically 4-6 kittens per litter. In just 3 years, one female and her offspring can produce over 100 cats. This is why sterilization is our most urgent priority.

Common Untreated Illnesses

Street cats suffer from many treatable conditions that go unchecked: Feline Leukemia (FeLV), FIV, upper respiratory infections, parasites (fleas, ticks, worms), eye infections, and painful abscesses from fights. Without treatment, these conditions are often fatal.

Your Donation Makes a Direct Impact

  • $50 spays/neuters one cat + overnight care
  • $30 feeds a colony for one month
  • $15 provides basic vaccinations
  • $100 covers emergency medical treatment

The Solution Is in Your Hands

Sterilization is the most effective, humane way to reduce street cat populations. For every cat we spay or neuter, we prevent dozens of future kittens from being born into a life of struggle. Your donation directly funds these life-saving surgeries.
