Sunday, September 13th, our Belmopan Humane Society monthly Spay & Neuter Clinic got to work — 12 animals sterilized: 7 cats and 5 dogs and one baby that needed a checkup ASAP. 🐶🐱
These steady, monthly clinics may not always make the biggest splash on social media, but they make a big dent over time. Every animal sterilized means fewer unwanted litters and another step toward reducing the overpopulation of dogs and cats in our communities. And let’s be clear — we don't only serve Belmopan.
Our clinics assist caring pet owners and rescuers from Belize City, Mahogany Heights, Frank's Eddy, St. Matthews, Armenia, Dangriga and other communities across Belize. They understand that responsible pet ownership includes keeping their animals healthy, safe and under control. For many, their dogs help watch over their property, while their cats help keep rodents under control. They value these animals and want to do what is right for them.
Our volunteers understand the importance of this work — and they show up! A huge thank you to Dr. Orlando Baptist and his assistant Romelio, who continue to work tirelessly through these clinics. They are machines when it comes to getting those surgeries done!
We also continue to administer free rabies vaccinations, made possible through the support of the Ministry of Health, Public Health Department. We appreciate the partnership that helps us keep our communities and animals safer.
About those who say “The Humane Society doesn't help…” We do.
But here's the part that sometimes gets overlooked: we can only help the people and animals who actually take advantage of the help being offered. Our clinics require owners and rescuers to respond to emails, keep appointments and participate.
And if you emailed us and didn't receive a response, please check the email address you provided and make sure it is one you actually monitor. If you need assistance, contact us directly rather than assuming that no one is responding. Constructive communication helps.
We are targeting one street, one neighbourhood and one village at a time. We may not be able to reach every animal at once, but we will keep pushing these clinics forward for those who need them. Because at the end of the day, 12 animals this Sunday matters.
And the next 12 matter too.
And the 12 after that.
