[News Boquete] Mini Cat Sanctuary

Kirsten Cares For Cats provides food, medicine, supplements, shelter, vaccines, veterinary care and the transportation to the veterinarian.  It is like operating a mini cat shelter.  There are not enough homes, permanent or temporary for cats so we provide the next best option.  There is no government assistance, only our efforts with donations we receive.   It is not a glorious volunteer opportunity but seeing the proof of the cats being cared for makes every moment of time, energy and resources worthwhile. Kirsten Cares For Cats built the enclosure for these cats that Maritza cares for.  The July costs were: veterinary $958, transportation $100, medicine $44.53, wet, dry food and puppy pads $365.66.  These costs are just for this single feeding station. Kirsten Cares For Cats has 23 other feeding stations. Cat or any other animal lover please contact me to help grow this small group of volunteers, to understand to what capacity we help cats and to participate in their welfare.  Thank you.

[News Boquete] DO YOU NEED A TRUSTWORTHY HANDYMAN?


DO YOU NEED A TRUSTWORTHY HANDYMAN WITH GOOD REFERENCES?

PLEASE CONTACT JOSÉ, 

HE DOES EXCELLENT WORK AND MOST OF ALL SHOWS UP WHEN HE SAYS!

EXPERTISES: ROOFER, PLUMBER, PAINTER, PVC CEILING INSTALLATION, CONCRETE WORK, FENCE INSTALLATION, ELECTRICAL WORK, REMODELING.


WHATSAPP: 6641-9571

From my experiences with Jose Vejarano, he is very skilled with all kinds of repairs and construction work around the house. He has completely restored a bad roofing job and rusted out gutters to like new condition, built beautiful steps and stone pathways in the garden, painted without any messy splattering, fixed plumbing issues, you name it, Jose can pretty much do it very well. When it comes to concrete work, he is the best. He is reliable, trustworthy, conscientious and honest, shows up when he says he will, cleans up after his jobs, and in general is a great handyman for whatever your needs are. Jose is a worker whom you will love and keep having back for more and more jobs. He doesn’t speak English, however, his wife is an English professor and can translate when your translator just isn’t quite enough.

Lisa, Los Molinos


Hey everyone. If anyone is looking for someone to repair a roof, or a general handyman, I highly recommend Jose Vejarano. Jose is punctual, highly skilled, safety conscious, and cleans up afterwards. I believe he can do most jobs except electrical.
I had water leaking inside my house and Jose found the hole causing the leak, but also found other problems with my old roof. He also cleaned out my gutters which were a mess, and made some repairs to the drains around the carport.
You can reach Jose at 6641-9571.
