!! NOTICE !!

DUE TO THE PASSING OF ZAPP FOUNDER STEVEN FORMAN, ZAPP IS NO LONGER ACTIVE.

Please continue to support the animals. In San Felipe, "Volunteers for Indigent and Vulnerable Animals" or VIVA has been formed to fill the void left by Steven's passing. It's a collaboration of volunteers from the two former animal care groups, ZAPP and San Felipe Animal Rescue.


For more information on VIVA visit their website.

ZAPP is an acronym for the "Zero Additional "PUP-ulation Project". ZAPP was founded by Steven Forman in 2006. We are a no-kill organization operating in San Felipe, Baja, California. ZAPP is committed to spaying and neutering up to 200 animals a month, so we can finally achieve zero additional population growth and stop city wide roundups forever, which end in euthanasia of our innocent stray and indigent street population. Through our "SHOES FOR SPAYS" Project we take donations of gently worn to brand new men's or women's shoes and turn them into money for sterilization surgeries, using our shoe store on eBAY. The link for the store can be found on the right side of this page, by scrolling down.
The ZAPP Spay/Neuter Project deals with the most immediate problem at hand, which like all cities and towns in Mexico, is fertility. Please send your resell-able shoes to: "SHOES FOR SPAYS", 95 EAST HIGHWAY 98, CALEXICO CA 92232.

Surprise Roundup Yields 93 Dogs & 11 Kittens

A SURPRISE ROUNDUP this morning yields 93 more dogs and 11 kittens at ZAPP. Anyone who has extra dog and cat food laying around, or anyone who wants to do some bottle feeding of itty bitty kittens, please let us know right away. I called my guys at CANIDAE for emergency rations of food, because Martine tells me we'll never have enough food beyond Wednesday. I'm currently in the process of getting the remaining 39 dogs from the last roundup of 84 in April transported to the States, so we barely had enough room for these guys. But we're happy to have them---at least they're safe and both our vets can treat them all and get them fixed. That brings out total to 356 dogs and puppies and 37 cats and kittens. San Felipe's Mayor, Hazael Castillo was at the site when the 4 animal control trucks arrived as well as Dr David Ibarra from Mexicali Animal Control. We have really come a long way, and everyone now seems to be on the same page.
