🚨 BREAKING NEWS: MAN CLAIMING TO BE CHAIRPERSON OF MITCHELLS PLAIN CPF FOUND GUILTY OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS 🚨

⚖️ In a significant court ruling on 25 October 2024, Alan Thorne, who claimed to be the Chairperson of Mitchell’s Plain Community Policing Forum (CPF), was found guilty of two counts of animal cruelty under the Animals Protection Act, 1962. Wearing a CPF jacket, Thorne faced justice in a courtroom where he was sentenced to either pay a fine of R6,000 or serve 12 months in prison.

❗ With thanks to the Mitchells Plain Sub-District Community Police Board, we were alerted to an error in our previous press statement. We will always strive for transparency and accuracy in our reporting and we have amended our statement accordingly.

Despite multiple warnings from the Cape of Good Hope SPCA’s Inspector Jeffrey Mfini, Thorne continued to keep his German Shepherd in dire conditions—chained amid rubble, without water, and severely malnourished. The Magistrate expressed dismay at Thorne’s disregard for the dog’s welfare and his failure to set a positive example for the community. As a result, Thorne has also been declared unfit to own animals for two years.

This case sends a strong message: animal cruelty will not be tolerated, regardless of one’s position. The Cape of Good Hope SPCA extends thanks to the state prosecutors and all involved for advocating for animal welfare, and we stand firm in our commitment to protect vulnerable animals across our community.

Helping to save a life
One week to help Koa

Met him and he is wonderful

**🐾 Meet Koa: Our Big, Boy in Need of His Furever or Foster Home 🐾**

Koa is a large, active pup who has so much potential to be the *good boy* we know he can be – he just needs the right doggy companion to show him the way. Ideally, a strong, patient dog lady around 3 or 4 years old who can teach him a thing or two about life.

Koa craves love and attention, and he’s eager to learn. He's excellent on a leash and barely pulls at all. In fact, he’s so focused on walking that he simply ignores distractions around him—no barking, no fussing, just peaceful strolls by your side.

We haven’t tested him with cats yet, but we believe Koa could make it work with a confident feline friend who can stand their ground. Koa would thrive in a home with a yard where he can stretch his legs and burn off some energy. But be warned: this boy can jump! A yard with high fences is a must.

Koa is ready for the next chapter of his life, whether it’s in a foster home or with a forever family.

Please share Koa's story and help him find the home he's been dreaming of. If you're interested in meeting Koa or know someone who might be, reach out today!

**📩 Contact Sammi on 082 926 8160 for more details and let’s give Koa the happy ending he deserves!**

❤❤ HAPPY UPDATE 🥰 SASSY HAS BEEN ADOPTED FROM ANIMAL WELFARE HELDERBERG ❤❤

"Sassy is a very beautiful 1-year-old girl who has been surrendered to Animal Welfare Helderberg kennels, where she is dreaming of meeting a very special forever family 🙏❤️

Sassy came from a very sad, disadvantaged and unloving background 💔 When she first arrived at the kennels she was absolutely petrified of us, and would sit staring at us with eyes as big as saucers, and her whole body shivering and shaking out of fear 😭 She has come such a long way and has really blossomed into a friendly, affectionate and happy girl 🙏❤ When volunteers take her for a walk, they always come back and say what a sweetheart she is and that she walks very nicely on the lead 🥰

Sassy is a small dog who's very shy but so sweet 🥰 She gets on very well with other dogs but she doesn't know cats. Sassy absolutely adores people and loves to be close to her human (once she knows you and feels comfortable with you) ❤ She has a very beautiful temperament and is such an innocent, sweet natured and very gentle girl once she gets to know you 🥰

Sassy must go to a home where she will have some human or canine company during the day 🥰 She must be adopted as a very special family member and sleep inside the house at night 🙏 Sassy is a soft and gentle little girl who will make an incredibly loving companion and such a devoted and special pet ❤"

Sassy is available for adoption from Animal Welfare Helderberg in Gordon’s Bay, Western Cape. The adoption fee is R1100 which includes the sterilization, microchip, vaccinations and deworming. Please WhatsApp Clare from AWH on 0836974759 to confirm Sassy's availability and apply to adopt her. Successful homecheck and adoption fee and adoption contract etc apply.
