Fact: Cats don’t socialize the way dogs do. Which means cat people don’t have social outlets like obedience classes and off-leash parks where they can share stories about their furry children, find out who the best vet and/or pet-sitter in the area is, and lots of other useful things. This Meetup group is looking to change that. If you are an aficionado of the feline, rather than the canine, version of a family pet – and especially if you are owned by more than one cat – this is the place to get …

Animals know no borders! In poor neighborhoods of Lima, the dogs and cats often outnumber the people. They roam the streets unspayed and unneutered, eating from the garbage and reproducing without constraint. Contrary to what seems like neglect, we have found that these dogs and cats are beloved pets, but owners have limited resources. At the same time, research on the diseases carried by animals is underfunded. Our goal is to set up a free or low-cost spay/neuter clinic, assist the public in th …
