AUG STATS ARE OUT!!

While as always staying on top of the kitties in Phalaborwa and Hoedspruit this past month we went to Hazyview to trap some cats at the Bongani Hospital which have started to become a health concern with the cats coming into the hospital kitchens.

This weekend make sure to catch our stray pub at the Hoedspruit Farmers Market on Sat we will be selling chips, drinks, cotton candy and some other goodies. all profit raised will go towards the sterilization of feral cats in our towns.

Thank you Alley Cat Rescue Inc. for sponsoring for the sterilization of the Phalaborwa Kitties.

We were contacted by the White River SPCA yesterday to see if we would be able to assist this kitty with a bad hernia in bushbuck ridge the owners although dearly care for the kitty are not in a position to pay for vet bills let alone get her sterilized.

We were able to collect her from bushbuck this morning get her to the wonderful Maroela Animal Hospital and get her checked out and sterilized. The hernia was quite dirty so she is on some antibiotics and will spend a few day at the vet till she is ready to go home.

With the owner not being able to contribute to the vet bills or transport of the kitty the cost fall directly on our very over extended pockets. If you would like to help towards the vet bill or towards our many other sterilization projects we would greatly appreciate it, Please find out banking details below, or pop our stray pub trailer a visit at the Hoedspruit Farmers Market every little bit helps!

UPDATE: ALL HAVE BEEN REHOMED.

URGENT FOSTER / PERMINENT HOMES NEEDED!

We were called today about 3 abandoned cats in Hoedspruit town. Owner moved over night and left them at the house, Although I want to rant about how cruel an act this and how many other options were available it was time to put my feeling aside and get the cats to a safe place.
When I arrived on site we were only able to catch 3 of the 4 and have taken them to the vet until we can find them appropriate forever homes. (Number 4 we still coming for you!)

In the short time I spent with the kitties this is what I picked up

Light calico - seems very gentle natured seems like more of a home body

Tabby Male - This gorgeous boy seems like he likes to explore has typical cat will look for love on his own terms. Has the most magnificent tail.

Ginger Male - He is missing one of his front legs but that just means he can give bigger hugs! this beautiful boy would not stop rubbing up against my leg when trying to coax him into the carrier and if I was in position to take him home I would in a Second!

If you can offer these kitties a foster home or permanent home please reach out to us on 0788191336. All cats will be sterilized before going to any new homes.

Fia (Female Calico) and Shadow (Male Grey Tabby) are urgently looking for a new home together.

Fia is fat and fluffy and just want to be pet and loved. She loves chasing Geckos and and eating treats. She is the perfect lazy cat. She enjoys being outdoors.

Shadow, is the typical inside cat, he likes to be in his own home and is very playful in the evenings. He does not like noise and is scared of his own Shadow. He loves kisses and sleeping in your arms under the blankets at night. He absolutely loves to be carried around when making dinner or even coffee. He likes to play with toys that have bells in them or feathers.

Both of my cats are not used to being alone outside. They do not know cars very well and shouldn't be left alone to roam.

They are very well behaved and is attached to each other by the hip.

If you can offer them safe loving home please contact us on 078 819 1336
