Today, 4 October 2024, marks World Animal Day 2024 and day 2 of World Animal Welfare Week from the 3rd October 2024 - 9 October 2024. A week dedicated to bringing awareness about all animals - the BIG, the small, the hairy, the 8 legged, the slithering, the wild, the scary, the cuddly, the sharp, the venomous, the winged, the finned - ALL ANIMALS MATTER!
During World Animal Welfare Week, we would like to introduce our resident animals to our supporters and hope that their stories will encourage others to care for all animals. Remember that you can support our Kloof and Highway SPCA by sponsoring a resident animal on a monthly basis.
If you would like to meet one of our Star Residents or sponsor them, please email Brigitte at [email protected]
**Today, we would like you to say Hi to our Creep of Tortoises!🐢🐢
The Kloof and Highway SPCA are home to 11 Leopard Tortoises who range in age, with our oldest being over 70 years old! The Leopard Tortoise is the fourth largest species of tortoise in the world. Their shells have striking markings, and they are found in the Savannas of Eastern and Southern Africa. Our Tortoises are fed fresh veggies with their favorite treat of sliced tomatoes! 🐢🐢
If you would like to meet our Tortoises or make a monthly donation towards their care, please email Brigitte at [email protected]❤️ **
‼WORLD RABIES DAY 28 SEPTEMBER 2024‼
The Kloof and Highway SPCA are urging members of the public to make sure that their pets are vaccinated against Rabies. It is naïve to assume that because your animals are behind a fence they will be safe from rabies. THEY ARE NOT SAFE IF THEY ARE BEHIND A FENCE!! We have witnessed rabid strays run from fence to fence and interact with other dogs through the fencing. The virus attracts other hosts so animals are drawn to it.
If you find a stray animal, you are not familiar with only approach if it is safe to do so and absolutely necessary. In the event of being bitten or scratched, IMMEDIATELY wash the area very well and flush under running water and seek medical treatment with a Doctor. If you are bitten or scratched by an animal with no proof of vaccination, you will be required to go for a course of Rabies vaccinations. Rabies is fatal and the threat of it should not be taken lightly. With the increase in rabies, we are advising the public not to keep stray animals, but to do the right thing and bring them into your closest SPCA.
The Kloof and Highway SPCA do offer Rabies Vaccinations at a cost of R50 at our Clinic Monday-Friday between 10:00am-2:00pm and Saturdays from 8:00am-12:00pm by appointment only.
For any animal-related emergencies during office hours please contact us on 031 764 1212 and for after hours emergencies contact our emergency line at 073 335 9322
What can we say about this fabulous group of dog walkers that we at The Kloof and Highway SPCA are lucky enough to call our own! They are our people♥️ They are the sunshine in our animal’s day☀️🐕 For the time they spend with an animal in our care, that animal forgets about his or her kennel , any heartbreak they may have been feeling disappears and all is good in their world✨️ They feel some normality, and they feel loved. These are our dog walkers♥️
You see, this group of special people do not just walk animals and spend time with the animals they also help with marketing functions, work hard in our Village Green, and chip in at the Outreach Clinics. They understand why we do what we do, why we have strict rules in place, why there are days our staff are so incredibly sad, and other days when we are angry. They never judge or point fingers they merely provide support. So to Sharon Petzer and every single one of our dog walkers on behalf of the Kloof and Highway SPCA THANK YOU for choosing us♥️♥️ You truly make a difference and we are so grateful❤️✨️🐕🐕
Today, The Kloof and Highway SPCA held an Outreach Clinic with a difference❤️
With the support and involvement of @friendsofk9_trust , Lea Kassner , we decided to give people in our surrounding areas a chance to get their animals sterilised at a reduced rate. The first area we targeted was Queensburgh . We are passionate about sterilisation and had 2 Vets on site who managed to sterilize 25 animals. Our staff got to educate the owners on all things to do with pet ownership and animal welfare. All animals went home with a bag of food and no possibilities of unwanted litters .
The Kloof and Highway SPCA is no exception during this economic climate💔 We are struggling every single month to keep our doors open , but we decided to pay it forward . We know there are many people out there who are also battling and need our help, and we decided to reach out. We will be doing more of these in various areas, giving other people and animals the opportunity . Keep an eye out for our social media posts . Thank you to our amazing Clinic team, and thank you to all the owners who did the responsible thing 🐕🐈⬛
