Division of Tom Ro Haven for Equines and Children: Tom Ro is based in the Cape and is ably run by Gillian and Stephanie McCulloch - they rescue equines in need and work with children from underprivileged areas. Here is Johannesburg we work with equines, and most other domesticated animals. We started in 2007 with the rescue of one horse and from there it grew. We soon realised the huge need for a place for dogs, cats, birds, sheep, goats, pigs etc...a place they could call home, and where there is no time limit imposed on them. Although we are a no-kill shelter, we believe in quality of life and when there is an absence of that quality we will make the call and end any needless suffering.
The animals do not live in kennels or cages, although some of the birds are in a large aviary during the day and brought in to their sleeping cages at night, depending on the weather. The dogs live in the house where they can be observed, house trained and assessed for the best possible match for their individual personalities. It helps us to get to know them well and from there, find a suitable match in the rehoming process.
No animal leaves our premises without being sterilised first, unless they are kittens or puppies or for any extreme circumstance. We charge a R650 adoption fee and we do home checks where necessary (often the adopter is someone known to us and we know the home situation).
We welcome volunteers to the centre and in fact are extremely grateful for the help they offer over weekends and public holidays. Volunteers help with feeding schedules, grooming the animals and sometimes even just coming to play with them and spend time in their company.
