I am the president of the Montserrat Animal Protection Society, or MAPS. We are located on a small Caribbean island and are the only source of protection for domestic pets such as dogs and cats. We shelter dogs and aim for adoption both within the country and off island as well. For cats, we have a trap, neuter, and release program. MAPS also runs veterinary clinics (spay and neuter), teaching sessions, and provides all care for the animals in our shelter. We run entirely on pet lover donations, as we receive no governmental assistance.

We are in the middle of badly needed renovations and a small expansion to house more dogs. Any donation is much appreciated.
