February Clinic

 Aticama's Museum is a place of international and inter-species exchange! We had volunteers from 5 countries helping BMA for our monthly sterilization clinic on Saturday! A total of 39 dogs and cats of every size and color from El Llano to San Blas were the recipients of their loving care - a worthy and satisfying effort toward world peace -

January Clinic

New Year, a new clinic...

This year, 2022, BMA started with a new protocol. We are using a team of four and operating on cats and dogs at the same time. At this rate it follows that we can do twice the amount of animals. Our first clinic of the year was an exercise in recovering animals double time! It worked well! There were plenty of volunteers to insure a success. We treated 43 animals and were headed to our siestas by 2:30. That's decent! Thank you to everyone who helped with loving care, food, financial assistance and positivity. We are 100% supported by you, our community near and far.  

I don't know of any local organization that has more volunteer support and participation than BMA! Every clinic is made possible by donations from supporters but beyond the monetary support there are volunteers who help in countless ways. They get up in the dark to set up. Someone sweeps and cleans the clinic grounds, Someone bakes homemade goodies for mid morning. Someone takes the garbage, washes the laundry, prepares a lunch, buys supplies, cleans the bathroom, fixes the electricity, coordinates the appointments, arranges rides for animals, and clients, scrubs cages, sterilizes instruments, and then there are those who clean ears, remove ticks, cut toenails and trim hair. All of this compassionate care comes from our community. Let that sink in, folks...people give their time, resources and energy to come together each month for the dirty work of sterilization. They do it from their own impulse to help make things better where we live. This is the best part of BMA - the togetherness, the shared willingness to do something for the love of animals and the love of our home.
 

We sterilized 25 animals: 9 cats and 16 dogs on Saturday - one of the hottest clinics ever. Thank you Team BMA - you are all mighty special people!
