Global Strays knows that the overpopulation of suffering homeless animals can only be addressed by tackling the root causes of overpopulation. That is why Global Strays works within a different rural community every month in Nicaragua to spay & neuter owned pets, free of charge to families who cannot afford the procedure and provide veterinary care.

In Nicaragua, where the majority of animals are homeless and live on the streets, we know that spay and neutering must be a top priority. We believe we must reach the animals before they reach the streets and the shelter system. Many Nicaraguans want to help their pets but they do not have the financial resources nor the education to spay or neuter their animals or to access basic veterinarian care. Thanks to Dr. Lester Tapia and our veterinarian team at Aprovet Nicaragua, this program is made possible.
