Vet bill🙈

August has been extremely challenging. We have had to take so many cats to the vet. Mostly biliary. But snuffles, old age and injuries also featured.

We still have more patients waiting...one (Tinkerbelle) is urgent and is going to need to be hospitalised.

But, our vet bill needs attention. We get welfare rates but it all adds up quickly. We paid R5000 yesterday but we really need some help with the rest please.

Thank you to everyone who supports us....we value and appreciate you very much and could not continue without you....😻😻😻

Spring-cleaning???

Spring is here and the animals are loving the warm weather.
Us humans are thinking of ways to generate cash to buy cat food.
If you are doing cleaning please think of donating household goods to us. We can use or sell almost anything. So many people and animals benefit from this.

Can you imagine being afraid of cats? Well, we can't. But for some folks, the fear of felines, ailurophobia, is all too real. Yet, we often see people overcoming their preconceived ideas about cats once they've spent some time with them. And once they do, it can be life-changing! Here's another case

Our Story

We are an animal welfare charity (NPO) that primarily feeds, traps and cares for feral cats living on our campus. We also find homes for unwanted strays and educate students and advise the general public about feral cats and animals in general.

TUFCAT also has a small ‘Home for Life’ sanctuary for unwanted and special needs cats and dogs, on a beautiful smallholding near Villiersdorp in the Western Cape. We do outreach work on farms and also have regular spay clinics in the dorp.

We are in the process of setting up a ‘Surviving Pet Programme’, so if you are concerned about what will happen to your pets of they outlive you, please contact us for a chat.
