Amigos De Animales held its 10th Blitz April 5-6, spay or neutering 145 dogs and cats in Fraccionamiento Ignacio Ramirez, located across from the new General Hospital.  The space was kindly donated free of charge by carpenter José Cruz Ibarra. Amigos was able to accommodate 5 volunteer vets and assistants in the workshop-turned-clinic. The room was also set up to weigh animals, prepare them for surgery, operate and then provide recovery areas for both dogs and cats.  A Blitz of this sort requires 40 volunteers a day from 8 am to 6 pm. Amigos is grateful to the many animal lovers who willingly volunteered. In addition, Hecho en Mexico donated 120 sandwiches to feed the volunteers, Maple Bakery donated 120 loaves of bread and Sam's Club in Queretero gave us all the cardboard for the recovery area floors. Barbara and Scott Herrick provided 200 tamales to feed those waiting with their animals. It was another good day for animals and the people who care for them.


Many thanks to the donors, volunteer doctors, their assistants, general volunteers, owners and their pets!
