The New Law
First within the Region
San Bartolomé de Tirajana, the city corridor answerable for common vacationer resorts like Playa del Inglés and Maspalomas, has change into the primary municipality to undertake such an in depth sterilisation and microchipping operation as a part of the island’s program for managing city feline colonies. This initiative is a collaborative effort involving the Official College of Veterinarians of Las Palmas, and the native council.
Initial Results
The first part of the marketing campaign was led by the native Health Councilor, Araceli Armas Cruz, treating 10 cats from two colonies within the San Agustín vacationer space. These cats have been dewormed, sterilised, and microchipped on the Albergue Insular de Animales, island animal shelter run by the Cabildo de Gran Canaria and the Veterinarian College. Individual carriers have been used to move the cats to scale back stress.
Upcoming Events
The second large-scale sterilisation and microchipping occasion is scheduled for October twenty fourth and would require the participation of 4 to five veterinarians. Additional actions to fulfil the quota set for San Bartolomé de Tirajana will likely be carried out later by means of native veterinary centres taking part in an island-wide marketing campaign.
By commencing this sterilisation program, San Bartolomé de Tirajana has taken a pioneering function in animal welfare and inhabitants management, setting an instance for different municipalities within the area.
