URGENT, URGENT - Spray Bottle Triggers needed πŸ™πŸ’œπŸΆπŸ±

At the shelter, we use colour coded purple and green spray bottles for things like water, santiser spray, etc.

They are a vital tool in keeping our spaces clean. The bottles start malfunctioning over time and at the moment almost all our bottles have broken triggers that don't spray properly.

If anyone can assist with donating the working triggers out of your household spray bottles or unwanted spray bottles, or can find triggers that you can purchase, we would be very grateful πŸ™πŸ»πŸ’œ

We do have plenty of bottles, but if you don't have triggers to donate, then spray bottles can be purchased from the garden sections at PnP, Checkers, plastic stores, etc. We have tried the triggers at Mambos but those didn't work properly.

Please drop off any you have at Plumstead Animal Hospital vetshop in Basil Road, Plumstead πŸ’œπŸ™πŸΌ

πŸ’œCOFFEE LOVING HIS WALKS πŸ’œ Cape Town

Coffee and Tiny have been enjoying weekly walks with volunteer Ingrid and staff member, Xavier. It's their best time of the week!

Coffee was named for his beautiful coffee colouring, the fact that he is full of beans, and of course because people LOVE coffee! He is energetic, loyal and eager to please.

Coffee was found running the streets of Plumstead in October 2022, by staff members at Plumstead Animal Hospital. We shared his photo, but no one came forward to claim him. He was unneutered and had no microchip or collar to identify him.

Coffee is an energetic and sociable dogs who needs lots of exercise. He absolutely loves to go out for walks and will reward you with a song as you arrive at your destination. He is generally well behaved on his walks, and off lead he will come immediately when called. He takes his lead from Tiny on walks and will only react to a dog if she does. He is very responsive to treats and these can help him to ignore things that trigger him (like trucks, cars and cyclists and occasionally other dogs).

Coffee is large sized, neutered, fully vaccinated and around 3 years old. He is good with most dogs, but unknown with cats. He needs owners who are used to handling large breed dogs as he is very strong. Introductions would be done for a family with other dogs to make sure he is a good fit.

If you are interested in meeting him and offering him a home, please contact Paulette via WhatsApp on 083 641 3535 πŸ™πŸ»πŸ’œ

UPDATE 06.12.2024: Stormie was spotted early this morning by someone at the military base, at one of the entrances with a brown guard box. The owners were notified and came straight down and she was spotted running along the fence line, but unfortunately spooked and ran back into the bushes. At least they know she is still on the base and she is still wearing her pink harness and lead.

πŸ’œHAPPY FOREVER HOME FOR SIMON πŸ’œ

Sometimes you move into your new home and you just feel that something is missing...

That is exactly what happened when Kim and her son Seth moved into their new flat. For them it was missing the little paw prints, love and cuddles that would make their new flat feel like home.

Kim and Seth chose to adopt so that they could give a rescue a second chance in life, and what a great life it would be...

Kim had previously stayed in Plumstead and knew that PlumPets Animal Shelter rescued and rehomed adult cats. She made the phone call that changed everything! For Kim, the hardest part of the adoption process was choosing only one cat! But as soon as she saw a picture of Simon, she knew he was the one. He had a look that reminded her of Seth... Mr Cool. From there the adoption process went smoothly. Paulette gave them some good advice on how to introduce Simon to his new home. Kim took a few days leave to help him settle in and he was up to shenanigans in no time! Amusing himself by knocking over pot plants and climbing the clothes horse. He also loves doing zoomies around the flat twice a day. He recently got a leash for some future outdoor adventures. One of his favourite things to do is sit on Kim's balcony chair and watch the cars go past and of course he keeps a longing eye on the birds.

Kim says he is such a loving cat, she gets woken up every morning with nose rubs. Too cute πŸ’œ She would definitely encourage others to adopt. You would be giving an older cat a second chance in life and getting so much love in return.

Thank you Kim and Seth for giving Simon a wonderful new home and a second chance in life πŸ™πŸ’œ

PlumPets Animal Shelter

PlumPets Animal Shelter is a no-kill animal shelter, established in 2006 by Paulette Bousfield and Duncan Stevens (veterinarian). Paulette and Duncan, who own Plumstead Animal Hospital in Cape Town, play an important role in caring for the animals owned by the local community. Twelve years on in 2018, and Paulette has rescued and re-homed thousands of rescue dogs and cats. She has taken in some of the worst cases that no other animal welfare organisation would or could, and ensures that each animal brought to her is given the best chance of a healthy, happy life and a new home.

PlumPets use any means necessary to heal and rehabilitate the strays, including specialists, trainers and behaviorists, hydrotherapy, Tellington Touch and an army of volunteers who walk the dogs daily and spend time with the cats. PlumPets also hosts an adoption day every month to raise awareness about the animal shelter and the dogs and cats ready for adoption.

PlumPets relies on the continued support and charity of the public through donations, If you would like to help out, have a look at our wish list or to donate, click here!
