Rescue runs on supplies.
Not the inspiring kind — the daily, boring, absolutely essential ones.
Food, meds, syringes, gloves, shampoo, leashes. The things that get used up quietly, every single day, while dogs are treated, fed, cleaned, and moved through the system.
Donating supplies helps us lower operating costs, which means we can reach more animals, more consistently — across Isla Mujeres and the Cancún area.
If you’re able to donate items instead of funds, this is one of the most direct ways to help.
Amazon Wishlist (easiest option)
The easiest way to donate supplies is through our Amazon Wishlist.
Items ship directly to our team and go straight into use.
If you include your name in the gift note, we’ll know who to thank — sometimes boxes arrive like rescue roulette.
Medical Supplies
Medical supplies are always in high demand. Using reliable, high-quality materials is critical — many of the animals we treat return to street environments or rural areas where follow-up care isn’t possible. Poor materials mean infections, complications, and suffering we can’t undo.
