π¨ Another Broken Chain: The Rescue of Misty and Rex
In the heart of Cape Town's midwinter, the air feels freezing with howling winds and relentless rain, as only the Cape of Storms can conjure up this time of year.
Imagine being exposed to this brutal weather, chained, with no escape. This was the reality for two innocent souls, Misty and Rex.
πΆ Misty, a gentle dog used relentlessly as a breeding machine, and Rex, a mere puppy at three months old, knew nothing of life beyond the cruel chain that bound him. Their so-called shelter, barely shielding or protecting them from the storms, a hopeless case as the area around them began to flood.
But as fate would have it, an alert by a concerned resident to the Inspectors of the Cape of Good Hope SPCA prompted a rescue mission with officers from the City of Cape Town Law Enforcement. Their timely intervention saved Misty and Rex!
π Upon arrival, the team was met with despair: Misty and Rex, shivering and visibly distressed. With heavy hearts and ready hands, our Inspectors quickly freed them from their chains. As the chains fell to the ground, so too did their days living in cruelty.
