Tsumeb SPCA

𝑨𝒏 𝑬𝒙𝒕𝒓𝒂 𝑺𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝑽𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒕 𝑻𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚... 🐾

We love to see young people give back to their local community, and we are so chuffed that the SPCA is an organisation they have decided to support.

The high school pupils of Tsumeb Gimnasium collected animal food donations during their recent ATKV Deurnag project. A special shoutout to the girls on the ATKV board: Lize, Jessica, Cherlize, Svenia, and Karla. Your generosity and hard work will be making a real difference in the lives of the animals under our care. Wet/soft food is a luxury for them and just look at all those tins of food...😻

During their visit, the girls spent quality time with our cats and learned about the important work we do at the SPCA. They left feeling empowered to be ambassadors for our cause and have committed to continue promoting the SPCA within their school community. Thank you, Nicky Conradie, for your part in promoting the SPCA as a worthy cause.

Gimmies, we look forward to seeing more of you, as do our pawsome shelter residents. Together, we can create a better world for our furry friends! 🐶🐱💚

This is such a wonderful initiative by Elgin! We are so grateful for everyone in the community who makes any contribution, no matter how big or small, to help our cause. It really helps to keep us motivated. Together with your support, we can continue to make a difference for the animals that have been abused, neglected, or abandoned.

Let's rise to Elgin's challenge and fill up the storeroom with cat food! Meow-chas gracias! 🐱💚

Our pawsome supporters have been incredibly generous over the past few weeks, and our furry friends want to say a big thank you:

🌟 Babara Z and Hester: Thank you for the cozy cushions and blankets for our feline friends. They've been enjoying their new comfy spots and are so grateful for these little luxuries.

🌟 Elgin: Your generous donation of brand-new blankets for our rescue dogs is so appreciated. Our pups are loving their warm and soft blankies during these chilly evenings.

🌟 Karin: A massive thank you for the kind donation of yummy saagsels. It's been a real treat for our dogs—like Christmas in July!

We are truly humbled by everyone's generosity over the last few months. As we continue to support our animals, we have some exciting fundraisers planned to help with much-needed repairs and upgrades to our facilities.

𝙐𝙧𝙜𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙉𝙚𝙚𝙙: 𝘾𝙖𝙩 𝙁𝙤𝙤𝙙 🐈
Our cat food supply has run out for the month. If you're considering a donation, cat food would be greatly appreciated.

Not in a position to donate money or food? No problem! Our 28 cats would love an hour of your time for some much-needed cuddles.😽 Volunteers and active members are invaluable, and we'd love for you to join our team. Drop us a WhatsApp to find out how you can get involved.

Thank you for your continued support! 🐱🐶💚

🎉 Texas Found His Forever Home! 🎉

Friday was a very special day here at Tsumeb SPCA. We bid farewell to Texas, who - after 3 long years at the shelter - has found his forever home! This precious moment was captured as Lentie and her daughter welcomed Texas into their hearts and home.

This perfect match wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible efforts of Ariska and Nardus. Thank you for helping Texas find his happy ending.

Let's continue to make the dreams of all our remaining furry residents come true - keep sharing their profiles and please consider adoption. Your next best friend is waiting for you at our shelter...💚

🌟 A Heartfelt Thank You! 🌟

We are so happy with the incredible outcome from last weekend's fundraiser!

It wouldn't have been possible without Louise DuPlessis Van Zyl💚 You were the cornerstone to the Winter Market and Potjiekos Competition being a resounding success! It was such a wholesome gesture of you to run the competition as a fundraiser for the Tsumeb SPCA - we are so grateful. You also donated all proceeds from selling your dog treats. You have made a remarkable impact and did a fabulous job advertising on the Country Bean Cafè page. THANK YOU!

Special thanks also go to the following amazing supporters who donated additional funds and/or items for the SPCA on the day:

CheMerwe NA, who donated 50% of proceeds from the sale of Justice for Troy products
Powerline
Lientjie Smith
Lana Fourie
Charlotte Becker
Rheta Kruger Smeer

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the success of the Winter Market and the Potjiekos Competition. We will be using these funds to help reduce our vet bills. We cannot thank you enough for your generosity and kindness. 🥰

✨𝗕𝗲𝗴𝗴𝗮 - 𝗡𝗼𝘄 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻!✨

His journey is one of resilience. Rescued from the brink of death on May 17, this mixed-breed sweetheart arrived at our premises as nothing more than a "Bag of Bones," and so he was appropriately named Begga.

This 3-4-year-old has shown incredible strength and spirit, triumphing over tick bite fever and severe malnutrition. He recently underwent an eye operation (hence the additional accessory), and it is healing well. Despite all he has been through, Begga is the most affectionate and grateful dog you’ll ever meet, always ready to share his hugs with you.

Begga’s friendly nature extends to other animals, and he is also picking up basic obedience training. Though he's still very curious and likes to ensure he takes in all the sights and sounds around him, his eagerness to learn shines through.

We are so excited to be able to say that he is ready for his forever home. We welcome applications for adoption and encourage you to come meet this extraordinary dog. Begga, your new best friend, is waiting to give you his unconditional love! Contact us on 081 557 3500 for more info or to arrange a visit. 💚

🐾 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗢𝗿𝗲𝗼 - 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗿𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹! 🐾

Oreo is a beautiful 2-year-old Husky mix who is now ready for her forever home. She still needs to gain a bit more weight as she unfortunately suffered neglect by her previous owner, but she's otherwise healthy. Oreo’s stunning coat will require regular brushing to keep her looking and feeling her best.

Oreo's gentle and affectionate nature makes her the perfect companion - she really is a sweetie pie. She is great with other dogs and we believe she will be okay with cats and children, making her a wonderful addition to any family.

She's leash-friendly and learning basic obedience. She’s making good progress in her training and will continue to blossom in a loving home.

We're accepting adoption applications for Oreo and encourage potential adopters to visit and meet her in person. For more information, please reach out to us at 081 557 3500.

Share this post to help Oreo find her forever home! 🐶💚

These are just half of our gorgeous cats who are waiting for their forever homes! 🏡

Many have been surrendered or abandoned by families that they once thought they would always be a part of. Others have never had a loving home and all they know are the streets or our cattery...where they are likely to remain for a long time 😿 This is the sad reality for the young and adult cats in our care.

But you can help us change this! Share this post and get these cute faces out there so they can find their purr-fect match.

📞 Contact us at 081 557 3500 to arrange a visit or to find out more about the adoption process. The adoption fee for two adult cats has kindly been sponsored and is still available.💚

Thank you, Tsumeb Veterinary Clinic, for the write up and a huge thank you to Have-a-Heart Namibia for supporting the medical treatments that Bagga needed. It's hard to believe this is the same dog that came to us on 14 May! Bagga has so much love to give, and it's time to find him a paw-some family so he can have cuddles every day.💚

Thank you so much your support Country Bean Cafè, Griet-Marie and Rent a Skip. We are really looking forward to this weekend's Tsumeb Winter Market and sharing the day with our lovely community💚

We would like to recognise a very special member of our community, Jackie Hellwig. For her 60th birthday, Jackie made a selfless request: instead of receiving gifts, she asked her friends and family to donate to the SPCA, whether in cash or in kind.

From all of us at the Tsumeb SPCA, especially our furry residents, we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for sharing your milestone birthday with us in such a generous way. Wishing you many happy returns for the year. Jackie, you rock! 🥳💚

We are so grateful for the incredible support we've received recently:

🐾 Star Accounting Services & K. Marais: A heartfelt thank you for your monetary donations.

🐾 Hester: We were thrilled to receive the 19 handmade cat beds all the way from Swakopmund - many many thanks. Our cats will love them! And a big thanks to Stefan for delivering these wonderful beds to us.

🐾 Heino & Nicky: Thank you for the beautiful dog beds donated in loving memory of your dog, Generaal.

A special thanks to our volunteers who have been making a difference behind the scenes.

There's always something to get involved in at the SPCA, whether it's working directly with the animals, helping with upcoming events, or assisting with general operations. We love seeing you get involved, and the animals love it even more! 🐶🐱💚

Yesterday, we had a simply paw-some fundraiser! The Jumble Sale was a HUGE success. We're incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support from all corners of the country. A MASSIVE THANK YOU to everyone who donated and supported us. This wouldn't have been possible without your generosity! 🤗

We also received much-needed donations of cat and dog food on the day—a heartfelt thank you to Karin & Hanna for their kindness. 💚

Our next fundraiser is just around the corner! Join us next Saturday, 6th July, at the Tsumeb Winter Market where we'll have a small stall. There's still time to enter the Potjiekos Competition—every bit of proceeds will benefit the SPCA. Plus, there'll be delicious treats for your pooches!
