At Ixia St we know how special the love of a furry friend is, and how life-saving and life-giving it can be on a bad day. This is why we love helping you care for these special family members. We also love the stories of good people spreading this kind of love to others who need it. Danny Naidoo, a gentle Basset Hound, recently passed his assessment to become a therapy dog (along with his Mom) for Pets as Therapy and will be working to bring joy and comfort to people who need it most.

"PAT organises for animal guardians and their animal companions (mainly dogs) to visit people in hospices, retirement homes, frail care facilities, special needs schools, residential centres, and a variety of other venues. PAT visits bring company, support, comfort, pleasure, stress relief, and stimulation to those living either permanently or temporarily in these and other establishments."

We wish Danny and Mrs Naidoo every success in spreading love in this wonderful way! 💛🐾

Meet Zoleka (Zoey), Stock and Store Manager:
I originally come from Butterworth in the Eastern Cape, but moved to Cape Town as a child. I joined Ixia St full time in October 2022 and was so excited to start working in an animal hospital as a driver, packing treats for my little fluffy friends (and their humans) and keeping things stocked behind the scenes. I love animals and love getting to work for them! Outside of work, I enjoy running and entering races and I like to read. I also enjoy baking for my son.

Meet Mabel, receptionist:
I joined Ixia St in January 2022 and am originally from a small town in the Eastern Cape called Pearston. I moved to Cape Town in 2007 and worked in Melkbos at a veterinary clinic as well as at a grooming parlour where I learnt about all the different haircuts and styles pets can get. My love for animals comes from my dad who had a small farm with dogs, birds, geese and goats and so I grew up surrounded by animals. I work with an amazing team at Ixia St and am still learning a lot from all of them and look forward to learning more.
