A.P.A.C. are the initials of the Animal
Protection Association of Cuernavaca a private, charitable, non-profit
organization founded in 1964. APAC is affiliated with Humane Society of the
USA and the World Society of the Protection of Animals. APAC'S principal
activity is the maintenance of the PHILIP E. KAHAN ANIMAL SHELTER, located
on almost an acre of land and where we keep as many as 150 dogs and 75
cats.
APAC'S cooperates with local
authorities in the campaign to control rabies and also provides low cost
medical out-patient services such as neutering, inoculations, board and
consultations.
The Shelter is open from 9:30 to 5 on Weekdays
and until 1 PM on Saturday.
This photo shows some of the dog
pens.
Our principal goal is to offer food, medical
attention, shelter, vaccinations, and sterilization for the homeless dogs
and cats, until we can find them a loving home.
We also need voluntaries to talk about
animals in schools and/or to help at the shelter.
This photo shows one of the
volunteers doing the daily feeding of the dogs.
APAC also operates a small store
that sells itmes that have been donated to the shelter. The store is Called
the Bazar de los Animales and is located on Morelos Sur, just up the hill
from the Commercial Mexicana almost at the corner of Abasolo.
The shelter also boards pets for people on vacation. And they have a large
fenced in field where the dogs get to run around once a day.
