The Animal Rescue Site $100,000 Shelter Challenge




Vote every day until April 18th!

Folks - we need your votes!!


Peanut Pet Shelter only continues to survive and grow thanks to its wonderful supporters.

We have come so far in less than 3 years, but there is still so much work to do. Our streets are overrun with sick, starving, injured, sad and lonely dogs and cats. Disease and parasites which have virtually been wiped out in North America and Europe are surviving, flourishing and spreading here.

Our mission is clear:

Massive reduction in disease and parasites through large scale vaccination, worming and tick & flea programs.
The two biggest dog killers at the moment are distemper and hookworm. A huge amount of dogs are suffering immensely and dying due to this appalling disease and equally dreadful parasite.

Vastly reduced numbers of animals wandering the streets.
No matter how many individual dogs are caught and disposed of by the government, or rescued by Peanut Pet Shelter or other like minded individuals, the problem of the huge amount of dogs and cats roaming the streets of Plays del Carmen and the surrounding areas will not be reduced and will indeed increase whilst daily indiscriminate breeding continues. With on-going affordable and/or free spay and neuter programs, a reduction in street animals will be seen over the next few years.

Hand in hand with this, is Education.

It is our goal to help pet owners to become more responsible. We believe that owning a pet is a wonderful thing. However, allowing your pet to roam the streets, possibly causing accidents on the road, defecating in public areas, rooting through garbage, spreading disease and infections and breeding more litters is NOT responsible pet ownership.

All these things take money - a lot of money!

Add these costs to our normal expenses incurred by the dog shelter, the running of the cat haven and the building and development costs of our proposed new clinic (to help address the above situations) and you will see just how badly we need those votes. So please, click here and then click on the voting button to register your vote and to show you care!!

As always, thank you all for your support and above all thank you for caring!
