start a volunteer animal rescue. do fund raisers to pay for food, spaying etc. what helped us the most was getting the RICH tourists involved by having a dinner and auction and selling tickets. The auction was items donated…… a massage, dinner at a local restaurant etc. it’s done every year at the height of season. We have a regular set of tourist that come every year which is easier to get them to donate. With this money a vet is brought in once a month from the mainland and she does the spaying etc. so far it works. The hard part is teaching how to treat a dog or cat by getting shots and regular visits etc. if someone has a dog or cat and can’t afford to feed it then they are given food etc and the spaying is also paid for.
