🐾 Adoptable Alert! 🐾 At Glen Veterinary Clinic
Meet our lovely little family looking for forever homes! 💕

🌸 Mama Cat (Penelope) – Just around a year old, this gentle girl has done a beautiful job raising her babies and is ready to be spoiled in a loving home of her own. She’s affectionate, calm, and has the softest purrs.

🐱 Tuxedo Girl – This fancy little lady is full of sass and charm. She's playful, curious, and already very naughty!

🐾 Tabby & White Girl – Sweet as pie with the prettiest markings, this kitten is a snuggly explorer who loves to stare into your eyes and melt your heart.

As you can see, these two are a bonded pair and despite having 3 brothers, they have become best friends. It would be wonderful if they could go together but separate homes will be considered.

📅 They’ll be ready for adoption in just over 2 weeks, when they are almost 8 weeks old! Mom will be spayed before being able to go home.
✅ Healthy, playful, and already full of personality.
💰 Adoption fee applies – to help ensure they go to caring homes.

To secure a kitten, a 50% deposit is required. This ensures that each kitten is reserved for a genuinely committed home and helps prevent last-minute cancellations, which can delay the kitten’s chance of finding a loving family.

The remaining balance is due upon collection.

Please note: Reservations are only confirmed once the deposit has been received. Thank you for your understanding and support in helping us place our kittens in well-prepared, forever homes.

Please call us on 0123616206 if you're interested or want to come meet them!

Let’s find these cuties the loving homes they deserve! 🏡💖

TNR CATS - CENTURION
ELDORAIGNE

It quickly becomes a pattern.
A easy way to understand why most TNR Projects achieve only 70% sterilisation rate in a colony
The elusive two or three cats that dont trap
Eldoraigne Colony proves exactly this pattern
It goes great in the beginning. The easy to trap, more tamer ferals are always first in the traps.
Then it slows down, the middle group ferals are more feral than friend 😁
And then it stops
We wait
We wait for the real ferals. The last ones in the traps are always those that show the true value of a working cat.

Almost the entire colony is done
But to achieve 100% sterilisation rate in the colony we have to stay on site until all the cats on our list have been trapped for TNR
This always proves the most difficult time during a TNR.

Thank you to our sponsors National Sterilization Project F3 Feral Feline Fix Project 😊 for this amazing opportunity to be able to assist feral cats in Pretoria

GUARD DOGS 🐕

There is no law that gives these dogs the right to be a companion animal
No old law
No new law

There is no law that gives these dogs a standard of emotional well-being
No old law
No new law

The law simply states they are excluded from the same law that protects domestic dogs
These guard dogs can be confined for 12 hours a day - with no one that actually checks that the dog is actually allowed out of the cage at all.... Or ever
These guard dogs are allowed freedom to move within the confinement of the cage
These guard dogs cage need to be kept clean and the dogs must be fed and have access to water
The cage must have partial coverage for protection against the weather

These dogs can be bought and sold as a commodity to any security company or correctional facility

They live and die in shadows

FROM THE INSPECTOR DESK 🧑‍⚖️

Alot of what we do is paperwork

Driving and waiting for original affidavits with witnesses often means driving to the home of our witness to collect original affidavits
Driving to the police station to deliver original affidavits to our docket

Uber to the magistrate 🚗 because I hate city driving 😁

Obviously my witness is late 🙄 and I'm bored sitting waiting outside.....
Always a good time to catch up on social media 📝

I have not been sharing this case much
But I want to now, so that people can see the difference in what you sould expect from a Independent Animal Welfare Inspector

1) You have a right to deny an Inspector to enter your property.
On the 21st April I went to a property after I received complaint for a possible hoarding situation in a home.
The complainant was not sure, but suspected that the animals inside the house were neglected
When I arrived at the Adress the occupant came to the gate and refused me to enter the property. She said the house was dirty, and she has someone to help her clean. 😏 She had obviously been alerted to my inspection. While I knew valuable evidence was being removed I legally had no evidence to apply for a warrant. I could see what was being removed from the inside of the house.
I had no right to force entry
I was mad as s**t
Giving her 24 hours or 48 hours to comply to give me access to view the animals would be setting my case up for failure. I had little to no evidence of neglect or abuse.
So I gave her enough time to set up her own case for failure.
7 days. No court will say I was unreasonable.

2) Communication
The old lady had someone giving her advice 😒 she was open and transparent with her communication.
She made contact within 24 hours to set up an appointment within 7 days
She made contact again to discuss the time that would suit me nogal 🙄

3) Show reasonable effort to clean/comply
When I arrived back at the property 7 days later I was allowed in.
What I found was what I expected
They took 7 days to remove as much as possible.
The smell stayed behind
The carpet stayed behind
Several attempts had been made to hide the shame of what it looked liked before. Despite the cleaning efforts the house remained unacceptable for any person to live in
1 Dog was healthy and is mainly a outside dog with sleeping area in the courtyard with two large doghouses
8 Cats live inside the house

I have no authority over how people choose to live
The animals on the property are loved and cared for
The owner admits to neglecting to keep up with household cleaning after she broke her leg and recent rain caused the ceiling to collapse and has been left with unrepairable damage.
Two of her cats are 13 & 15 years old
She had bedding and litter trays for her cats
She had put up new curtains
She put new pieces of carpet over the old, worst pieces of the carpet
There was no furniture in the home

She begged for time to continue to make repairs to house
She made promises to continue to work with a cleaner
She said she is going to come up with a financial plan to fix the ceiling and remove the carpets to tile the house

It's almost time for my next inspection
The owner keeps me updated with progress to the house
I did not removed any of her cats

The owner has spoken to me about the fact that she has no family
She understands the importance of making sure that her pets will be surrendered to a rescue organisation in the event of her death or should she have to be hospitalised or are unable to care for them
She has chosen a pro life organisation to be the custodian of her pets and I will assist her with the process to get in touch with the organisation and notify them to set up an appointment with the owner

The owner has agreed to monthly inspections for the next year or untill I am satisfied that the house has been suitably repaired

Not all battles are wars
Sometimes it's about what can be achieved with
Education
Support
Respect
Compassion

LAYLA

The only story I ever wrote
In a book no one read

For a dog I would loved forever

Forever came today Layla
I will see you again on your side of the Rainbow one day
And I will whisper in your ear
Hey'a Layla
Let's run together and show me where you dance with butterflies

It's time to go
Home
Layla
🌈

My deepest condolences to my dearest friend Unita Du Plessis Hanekom
Thank you for Layla
