Services

Sterilization
We offer no cost and low-cost sterilization and vaccines for Mexican nationals of limited means, ensuring that pet owners can care for their pets without financial strain. Contact the shelter for more information.

Pet Food Bank
Our organization provides food to local food banks and supports specific programs like Tails of Mexico enabling us to aid families in need with their pet food supplies.​

Pet Supply Store
Our on-site pet supply store has one of the
largest selections of food, toys, treats, and supplies available at Lakeside. Every purchase of food and supplies directly supports all the efforts of Lakeside Friends of the Animals and the Cat Shelter. We appreciate every purchase and your loyalty.
​

Cat & Kitten Shelter
Rescued and surrendered cats and kittens are available for adoption. All cats have been tested, vaccinated, and sterilized.
​
Live traps for capturing cats for spaying/neutering are available to borrow with a 500 peso deposit.
​
Although space is limited, the shelter can accept some healthy, socialized cats and kittens to be adopted.
​
WE ALWAYS WELCOME VISITORS AND VOLUNTEERS TO PLAY, PET, AND SOCIALIZE WITH THE KITTIES!!

How You Can Help
There are many ways you can support Lakeside Friends of the Animals. Shop at our Riberas Pet Store, donate, and stop in and play with the kittens and cats when you shop at the store.
The shelter is totally reliant on donations. Cash donations are always welcome, too. There is a jar for cash donations at the front checkout counter and you can ask for a receipt for your donation. Donate through PayPal (in pesos)
or through Lakeside Charities: https://lakechapalacharities.org/animal-welfare
Another option is to remember us in your estate planning.​

If you would like to find out about other volunteering opportunities, please talk to the shelter managers.


Community Support
We express our gratitude to local bomberos by providing them pet food. Additionally, we offer support to a dog sanctuary, ensuring every pet receives the care it deserves.
