Ricaurte Pet Sterilization Registration Ends May 28
Cuenca Expat Staff
Ricaurte pet owners have a short registration window for upcoming sterilization days.
El Mercurio reports that registration opened May 26 and ends May 28, 2026, at the Ricaurte parish GAD offices.
One small calendar note: the source describes the cutoff as Friday, May 28, but May 28, 2026 is a Thursday.
Campaign Schedule
El Mercurio reports this schedule:
- June 13: La Dolorosa, 08:00 to 15:00
- June 27 and 28: La Asuncion, 08:00 to 15:00
- July 4: Miravalle, 08:00 to 15:00
The source did not state a cost.
Prep Workshop
Before the surgeries, residents will receive training on care before and after the procedure.
That workshop is scheduled for May 29 at 14:00 at the La Union community house.
El Mercurio quoted the campaign notice saying sterilization helps protect pets' health and can reduce risky territorial behavior, including pets escaping, getting lost or suffering an accident.
For expats in or near Ricaurte, this is one of those small local-service windows worth acting on quickly if you have a dog or cat that needs the procedure.
