Save the Strays of Baja

Donation protected
We are Terry & Heidi Kotas originally from Washington State and have been living on Mexico's Baja Peninsula since our retirement in 2009. While we have enjoyed living here, there is one dark spot: the heart wrenching feeling when you see stray, unfed and uncared for dogs and cats and you alone can't take care of or help them all. We have always tried to help by feeding those we could or trying to find homes for others. We took in our 'rescue cat' Rosie in 2010. While in Loreto we met a veterinarian named Dassia (Dassia Y Lopez of Patas y Pies Veterinary clinic) that does tremendous work taking in strays and caring for them all out of her own pocket. She has a huge heart but due to the overwhelming number of homeless cats and dogs that she not only feeds and houses but provides all of their medical care including spaying and neutering -- it puts a huge strain on her resources, and she never complains. We, along with other community members, try to help her out with donations of food for the animals and money but we see that more will be needed to sustain caring for these dogs and cats as well as embarking on much needed Trap/Neuter/Release projects. We are hoping all of our critter loving friends can spare a few dollars to help Dassia continue the good work she is doing. Thank you ❤️
