The Center for Animal Protection and Education (CAPE) is a non profit 501(c) 3 organization whose goals are to actively educate people about the plight of animals in society today. We provide sanctuary for homeless animals, humane education programs for children and adults, advocacy campaigns addressing current animal issues, and information for people who have specific questions or problems concerning animals. Through these endeavors, CAPE's aim is to reduce animal suffering, heighten awareness, and bring people and animals together in peaceful co-existence.

Rina-coming soon
Rina was found wandering the streets on the Island of Cozumel in September. Her paws were lacerated, she was severely matted and dirty, and she had an eye infection. She was taken to the Cozumel Humane Society until a late season hurricane, Hurricane Rina, forced the evacuation of the shelter. She went to the home of an Island resident who named her for the storm.
A CAPE volunteer, vacationing on the island, who also volunteers at the Cozumel shelter, fell in love with her and called the CAPE organization with a request to rescue Rina. Of course the request was granted, bu in the meantime, Rina was diagnosed with heartworm. In spite of this complication, she traveled from Cozumel to Scotts Valley Ca. where she is in foster care.
Rina is undergoing treatment for her condition, and will be ready for adoption in a few months. For more information about Rina, please call her foster mom, Linda, at 831-438-7630.
