𝐍𝐎𝐖 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐋𝐈𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑:

Tiny roommates. Professional nappers. Chaos enthusiasts. 😼

Meet our latest batch of kittens who are looking for families to love.

𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬: snacks, cuddles, climbing things they shouldn’t, dramatic zoomies, and falling asleep in inconvenient places.

𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬: being alone (which is why we’d LOVE for them to be adopted in pairs 💕)

They are available to be reserved now, but because they are still so little, they will only be ready to go home towards the end of June. In the meantime, future families are welcome to come visit!

June is Adopt a Shelter Cat month, so we are offering:
🐾 50% off adoption fees, or
🐾 2-for-1 kitten adoption special

Two kittens really are better than one: they are happier, more confident, and always have a built-in best friend.

Interested? Send us a WhatsApp on 081 557 3500 and please, please keep sharing their tiny faces 💚

⚠️ Graphic content warning: post contain wound images

Last week, this boy was rescued from the streets after being found limping and badly wounded. We still don't know how he got these injuries...

After being rescued by the SPCA, he spent 3 days at the vet where his wounds were treated, including a deep infected one that required a drain. It's not been an easy start, but he's slowly learning that people can be kind.

Thank you to Dr Tjari and the team at Veterinary Clinic for taking such good care of him 🩺

And thank you to our WhatsApp Community, who helped choose his name. 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐧 was the winning vote 👑

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬🥳

✨ Aya has found herself a little slice of heaven with Sonia and family out on the farm. She is settling into her new surroundings, getting to know her furry brother, and taking things at her own pace.

✨ Nelly is beginning her happy ever after on a small plot with her new canine companion. We hear she has already claimed the couch as her throne and is settling in wonderfully! Thank you, Gustav, for choosing adoption.

✨ Duchess and little Choco stayed closer to home, so close in fact that they walked to their new home over the weekend! Stella and her family met them at the end of May and instantly clicked with the pair. Thankfully, these two enjoy each other’s company, making the transition to family life that much easier.

To everyone who chooses adoption: thank you. Every animal adopted from our shelter gets a second chance, and every adoption opens the door for us to help another animal in need.

Our cattery is pretty much full, which means there are lots of whiskers, purrs and tiny paws hoping for a family to call their own.

For the whole month of June, we are offering:
🐱 50% OFF adult cat adoption fees
🐱 2-for-1 kitten adoptions

Whether you’re looking for a playful kitten or a chilled companion to curl up with, we may just have your perfect match waiting at the shelter.

All cats adopted through our process are sterilised or will be sterilised when age appropriate, helping to break the cycle of unwanted litters.

📍 Visit us at the shelter or send us a WhatsApp to find out more.

𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐩𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 🥺➡️

Last week, this puppy was found scavenging for food at the rubbish dump in Nomtsoub. Skin and bone. Covered in ticks. Weak and clearly running out of options.

But then someone stopped. Breytenbach refused to look away.

She tried to find his owners, but nobody came forward for him. She got him to safety and handed him over to us with a little care package to help kick-start his healing.

The vet confirmed he has advanced tick bite fever. His gums were almost white and his blood so thin that it was clear he had been unwell for a long time.

Meet 𝐎𝐝𝐞𝐧: a name that means strength, and a tiny warrior already living up to it. Now warm in his yellow PJs, on treatment, and finally getting the care he deserves.

He’s not out of the woods yet, but he no longer has to fight alone. 💚

One day soon we hope to be able to share the same update about the Animal Protection and Welfare Bill in Namibia 🙏

Brasilië se howe stuur ’n sterk boodskap oor diereregte nadat ’n belangrike regsbesluit bepaal het dat honde en katte nie bloot as eiendom beskou moet word nie, maar as wesens wat pyn, emosies en lyding kan ervaar. Die uitspraak gee verdere gewig aan bestaande wette teen dieremishandeling en kan strenger optrede teen oortreders ondersteun.

Regskenners meen die besluit kan ’n groot invloed hê op toekomstige sake oor dieremishandeling, toesig oor troeteldiere en dierewelsyn in die algemeen. Dit weerspieël ook ’n wêreldwye tendens waar lande toenemend erken dat troeteldiere meer as besittings is en dat hulle spesiale wetlike beskerming verdien.

Brasilië het reeds in onlangse jare sy dieremishandelingswette verskerp. Onder die sogenaamde Sansão-wet kan mense wat honde en katte mishandel gevangenisstraf van twee tot vyf jaar, boetes en selfs ’n verbod op toekomstige troeteldierbesit in die gesig staar.

Die vraag is nou: Sal meer lande dieselfde pad volg en troeteldiere amptelik as voelende wesens eerder as besittings erken?
