Our logo


Aligned to our mission, we decided to identify a logo or symbol that represents what we work for and how we do it. The result was the introduction of our new logo.

At the center, an animal paw, drawn in an abstract way so it does not represent either the canine or feline footprint, but is symbolic of all animals that we protect. The four 'fingers' represent our four areas of focus; animal rescue, pet adoption, neutering and our community education.

The color blue symbolizes the trust, the responsibility and the commitment we have with animals and our society.

The paw is on a yellow background which represents the optimism, hope and promise of a positive future. Also, yellow stimulates the thought processes, creative thinking and communication, all important to keep working with optimism and strength to achieve our goals.

All this is framed by a shield figure that reminds us of a police badge, the color blue of the silhouette
symbolizing the power and authority that you earned when working for just causes, and by using appropriate means.

Our mission and vision


MISSION
Our organizational mission is to promote the welfare and responsible care of animals, protecting them from abuse and neglect, and promoting the humanitarian conscience in our community.

VISION
To achieve our mission we focus on four key areas: responsible pet adoptions, animal rescue, community education, and promotion and sponsorship of pet neutering.

Adoption - Through our adoption program, we seek to find appropriate homes - caring, responsible, committed - that provide the love, the respect and the quality of life that animals deserve.

Animal Rescue
- We investigate reports of abuse and / or abuse of animals, providing orientation to the people involved, we participate in correcting the situation and if necessary, we work hand in hand with the relevant authorities for law enforcement.

Community Education - We visit schools and communities to provide guidance on the care of animals, the importance of neutering them, prevention of abuse and the laws that protect them. We encourage and promote respect, love and compassion towards animals. We organize conferences and educational seminars on related topics.

Neutering Program - We carry out campaigns on the importance of neutering and its role in controlling the overpopulation of unwanted animals. We help identify neutering programs available to the community and often offer financial assistance to low income people to help them neuter their pets.
