Amigos de Animales
Call it puppy love
by Nancy

Spading
and Neutering Animals in San Miguel is Savior’s mission
San Miguel has an invaluable organization
called Amigos de Animals. Its mission
is to sterilize cats and dogs so there won’t be massive reproduction and the heart-break
of unwanted animals. This community-oriented organization is especially
directed towards Mexicans who cannot always afford the cost to go to a vet.
Arno Nauman realized there was a great
need for this some 15 years ago, and he singlehandedly formed Amigos de Animales and developed it to
grow into the vital entity it is today which now benefits from many volunteers.
His grass roots rallying resonated with people and it has paid off: his passion
for animal protection led to the creation of new laws related to the matter,
including punishment for animal abuse. The fervor of his commitment to promote
better lives for animals and their pet owners in reducing the number of
unwanted, homeless dogs and the suffering that ensures. He has helped
enormously and his legacy will continue to leave its mark as he prepares to
retire.
Board member, Maggie Hutchins notes:
“One unneutered male or female can produce 100s of unwanted puppies and kittens
for their lifetime, and that so often these adorable newborns end up on streets
without, food, love or shelter. Maggie is one of 8 board members whose many responsibilities
include registering owner and animals for sterilization weekend sessions, called,
‘blitzes.”
The blitzes are held in the San Antonio neighborhood
and the Lion’s Club. The intense tagging process involved oversees up to 170 to
200 sessions per weekend. Maggie said it’s a lot of pre and post organizing,
and the success of it depends of course on the vets who volunteer to do this. Amigos de Animales pays two fulltime
vets and the rest offer their services free.”
So there are the blitzes, the clinic and
the traveling mobile that reaches out to remote areas. The org is busy every
day of the week. “Fridays, we set out to travel as far as 20 kilometers to do
our work and it is a fully operating clinic run by our two employed vets
Vanessa and Omar.”
Maggie has always loved animals; a voice
spoke to her many years ago when she realized so many creatures do not have
proper care. Amigos de Animales has a
spot-on slogan: “The voice for the voiceless”.
Donations are so appreciated, and tax
deductions are given.
THE GIMBO BED
Healing the body with heated stones
on San Miguel’s Gimbo bed
by Nancy
Snipper
It’s magic – just like the city
itself. Set yourself down on a hard bamboo bed under which is a thousand
semi-precious stones that are heated to work their magnetic energies as they
penetrate your body to basically banish your imbalances and chronic illnesses.
The stones are red amethyst, black jade, Biotitic, germanio, yakodol, kiyoseki and cheongwang. Their
healing specifics include, blocking electromagnetic, radiation, negative ions,
augmentation of energy and body temperature, anti-oxidant and balancing and
heightening energies.
Before I lay on my bed, I had to drink a
special half-bottle of water from Queretaro (a nearby city) that was ionized
and alkaline balanced. This was to rid your body of the toxins that circulated
in the body at a heightened rate due to these beds that do indeed bring the
blood toxins to the surface to be expelled after drinking the rest of the
bottle of water after your 40-minute treatment. I don/t understand the total
process, but the easy-to-read booklet plus a video are there to examine. I know
that there is a grand benefit to what happens to you once you immerse yourself
in Gimbo therapy
I met women there who are diabetic,
arthritic and suffering from nerve diseases. They attest to their wellbeing of
better health through these Gimbo beds.
I loved the heat, circulating into my
body and witnessed the power of these stones before I tried the treatment. My attendant
put a little magnet into a cup on the bed and it spun around in circles. The
hot spot for the bed is marked with amethyst.
How did I feel after? Renewed,
energized, and my back pain was gone.
This Korean invention is over 1000 years
old. It is recommended for those suffering from over 22 illnesses, including
Parkinson, rheumatism, obesity, migraines, even tumors.
Is Gimbo a god for well being or a mere
gizmo? You decide.
The address to try this wonderful
healing method is at # 35 Insurgentes.

San Miguel de Allende's best hairdresser
CATRINA
by Nancy
Snipper
Her name is Vero and her husband is Juan
Calros, Both are artistically inclined, Vero has been doing hair for over 26
years and she is also a genius make-up
artist – The Day of the Dead in San Miguel sports many of her make-up faces.
They are so detailed, they appear like tattoos. Vero is fun and highly
creative. Her hubby is the side-kick; he behaves like an adorable clown, but
take one look at the fantasy nails he does for women, and you know this guy is
all business.
I was astounded by their marvelous
rapport with their clients, I was 5 hours in the chair, and yet it was I that
was entertained completely by their wit and remarkable caring as to my hair.
Go there and be amazed.
Catrina is a cool place that brings
beauty to your hair. Vero did to mine, so remember the hairdressing name of
Catrina, which she and her husband own. It’s at #104 Relox Street.
