Alma Mater – Photos May Reguera.- They seem to move at the same rhythm, to be in complicity, they play, they look at each other. Enjoy these beautiful images of the talented photographer May Reguera, as part of the sterilization campaign led by Animal Welfare Cuba.


Art must always be at the service of noble causes. That is, perhaps, the purpose of the sterilization campaign carried out by Bienestar Animal Cuba (BAC), together with the prestigious photographer May Reguera and various dance companies in the country.

They seem to move at the same rhythm, to be in complicity, they play, they look at each other. In Estudio 50, dancers from Lizt Alfonso Dance Cuba, Acosta Danza and the National Ballet go on stage, accompanied by pets given up for adoption and previously sterilized by the BAC group.

According to a brochure from the animal group, it has been shown that 70% of animals given up for adoption without being sterilized end up procreating. For this reason, many shelter vets decide to start spaying puppies as early as 6 weeks (45 days) old.

“One of the benefits that such a practice brings is the increase in adoptions of sterilized animals. Although it is not a usual action in Cuba, especially among dogs, it must become common, since a large number of these non-sterilized animals, after being given up for adoption, end up being part of the overpopulation of dogs and cats.”
