  APAC
The Cuernavaca Animal Shelter
 

          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  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.
