Matisse was one of nine kittens born in our care after we took in three adult cats from an unsafe situation—his mom gave birth the very day she arrived. All the adult cats have since been sterilised. Matisse's sterilisation is once again a reminder of our shared mission—with every adoptive family—to break the cycle and reduce suffering. 💛

Post-op update from mom:
"Matisse is now a big man - all went well.''

A heartfelt thank you to Sonia and Dr. Johan for reaching out to us once again, for keeping your promise and giving Matisse and his half sister a wonderful forever home together.

Callie was the forth kitten trapped on a property nearby where ferals were fed but not sterilised. Over the years they came and went obviously breeding. We received a request for help when finally the property owners realised there was a way to stabilise the situation. Their sterilisation is a celebration of our efforts and our adoptive families.

Post op mom says "
It went well. She's is so cute, a little sulky and sore. We will give her pain meds and love her very much."

Thank you to the Van Dyk's for keeping your promise, welcoming your second GFP kitty into your family and giving her a wonderful home filled with so much love 🤍😺🧡

We really need to find these boys their very own forever home. They have been in foster care since they were 8 weeks old. Our foster moms have worked incredibly hard to get them to the best health and the most loving, affectionate, adorable kitties one could ask for. Please give them a place in your home 😺🙏😻. They are well taken care of at their foster mom by only have a room and limited outdoor time they deserve so much more than we can offer them. They deserve a place to call home and a family of their own.

We recently received feedback from an adoptive mom who adopted two tripods and an abandoned adult from us this is what she told us "And the two babies - to me they still are- are doing so well. They both sleep against me. Alice rules the house and she is soooooo vocal! She is definitely the alpha female. And she follows me around like a little dog. Gracie is so soft and I carry her around like a baby. They look at me with so much love in their eyes!! I am the one that should be grateful. And Oliver - he was abandoned and now he only craves attention. He no longer complains when you pick him up! He loves it."

Shadow and Smudge (formerly Rocky and Chip) are the last two from the litter of four kittens we took in after they were found on a rooftop. These poor babies were in such bad condition, required medical treatment and several weeks of foster care to recover. During that time, we returned to trap and sterilise several adult cats in the area, mommy included.

Shadow and Smudge's sterilisations serve as another powerful reminder of our shared mission with every adoptive family: to break the cycle and reduce suffering.

Post-op update from their mom: "They are so cute and well adapted into our family!"

A heartfelt thank you to the Manley family for keeping your promise and giving these boys a wonderful life—one where they are truly loved and cherished.

Merlin (formerly Ranger) was also born in our care after we took in a kitty we thought could be a stray but turned out to be a feral—his mom, Emma gave birth in an isolation room while we searched for her potential owners and later until we could get an appointment with our vet. Emma has since been sterilised. Merlin’s sterilisation is another reminder of our shared mission—with every adoptive family—to break the cycle and reduce suffering. 💛

🖤 URGENT HOME NEEDED 🖤

These two were adopted through us as kittens when they were very young and now find themselves with no home 😭💔
''Good morning, All. I desperately need to find my two cats (Nino and Gatuzzo) a loving home. Unfortunately, I cannot separate them as they are brother and sister. I have relocated to the Vaal and I cannot keep them as there are 3 dogs on the property. Please help me find them a wonderful home.''

DoB: +/- 22 March 2021

"Gatuzzo, is male and is named after the Italian soccer player, because he has attitude, gutzpah and is adventurous. Nothing scares him. He orientates himself very quickly and makes friends with all the humans around, and then makes himself very much at home. I guess he likes hunting for his food because if he didn't feel like it he wouldn't eat from his bowl and neither did he look excited to eat his pellets or wet food. He never hid away from anything, not even thunder. He loves his freedom and spent days on end outdoors. But he always showed his face just to say "hello". He loves humans including strangers and he makes sure they love him back. He warms up to them instantly and they can't help but love him. He makes an excellent brother to Nino and often he would tease Nino and irritate her, but there has never been a cat fight between them.
He has also been spayed and received all his vaccines. He has a lovely warm personality and makes sure everyone notices him. Everyone loved him.
So, Nino is a girl. She's wonderful company and is very sensitive to people's emotions. She's very loving, will cuddle up to you and sleep with you. She's independent but shy and doesn't warm up to strangers at all. If strangers come in, she goes under the bed. Also comical because if she likes certain foods, she will make she tastes it, like yoghurt with fruit, Steers mince patty. She loves her wet meals and if she knew they were in the fridge, she would literally climb into the fridge to look for it. Nino is spayed and has had all vaccinations. If she were human she would be your perfect daughter who never puts a foot out of place or the teacher's pet."

Please share and contact us on 069 600 0531 if you can offer them a forever home.

Boontjie (formerly Jasper) was also born in our care after we took in three adult cats from an unsafe situation—his mom gave birth the very day she arrived. All the adult cats have since been sterilised. Boontjie’s recent sterilisation is a beautiful reminder of our shared mission—with every adoptive family—to break the cycle and reduce suffering. 💛

Post-op update from his dad:
"Great! Wound closed up really well, back to normal, healthy young cat."

A heartfelt thank you to the Bekker family for reaching out to us once again, for keeping your promise and giving Boontjie a loving forever home.
