Our little boy has no injuries
He has a long road ahead to clear him of worms 🔪🪱
The puppies are X breeds - JR/Border Collie
7 weeks old and the little girl only weighed 780g
The little boy weight on admission was 1.1kg
That is below average even if they were only Jack Russells

How ever much you love animals, this is not good enough
It's not good enough to have malnourished, worm infested puppies because you are poor and can not provide them with nutritional food growing up and regular vet checks.

'When people are poor, their animals are poor'
I remember this speaker from the Manifesto colloquium.
💡This one sentence resonated with me in very profound way.
I do not want to continue the argument of the right of pet ownership vs the privilege of pet ownership.
My views have changed so much over the last year, and continues to change daily as an Animal Welfare Inspector with the challenges I face negotiating my own moral compass.
New laws that will take away domestic animals from poor people because they are to poor to care for pets is not in my opinion the solution
But facing the neglect poverty cause from owners who can not afford to adequately provide veterinary services for pets in their care is very hard to see.
Knowing the law does not allow for preventative measures but rather needs evidence, more so enough evidence that the court is satisfied of a successful prosecution.

The Animal Protection Act
2.(c)..... 'procure veterinary or other medical treatment or attention which he is able to render or procure for any such animal in need of such treatment or attention, whether through disease, injury, delivery of young or any other cause'

Loving animals are NOT enough.
'Adequate' is NOT enough

🥺 Leaving animals to suffer after injuries without veterinary care because you are poor and you simply love them is NOT good enough any more.

Due to the injuries this little girl suffered that left her back legs paralysed, in addition to various additional signs of incontinence, neurological trauma and a worm infestation, the decision was made to humanly euthanasia the pup.
The puppy was left unattended and the owners suspect the injuries happened when the puppies were playing outside.

The little boy was also surrendered and shows no signs of injuries and has been treated for worms, he will remain in foster care untill he is vet cleared

Some days are hard
Other days are harder

'FREE'
Is not free at all.
In addition to the fact the puppy is not a rescue puppy, he is a private owned puppy that you got from someone, without vaccinations or vet checks. You now own the puppy and is responsible for áll the veterinary accounts.
"Hii , where can i report animal abuse anonymously . We got a puppy from a woman on fb. She has cut marks and scratches all over her body, they're not bite marks, they're clean cuts. She has one big scar on her back. If you come at her too quickly, she squeaks and poofs herself all the time. Even if you just want to touch her, she squeaks herself. She is incredibly afraid of my husband, doesn't want him to come near her at all. We bathed her, she smelled rotten , her ears had paste in them, we had them cleaned. The woman is still advertising puppies on Facebook. I don't want to know what the pups she has are going through. That's not normal behavior for a pup at all."

No. You are responsible for making sure the puppy receives veterinary care
No. We can not charge someone for puppies that smell bad and/or that is human shy

Yes. The puppy would have been better off surrendered to the nearest SPCA
This 'free' puppy now needs veterinary care and presumed to be in the care of someone that thought getting a 'free' puppy off Facebook was a cheap alternative to going to a rescue organisation and paying an adoption fee that includes vet checks, deworming, tick & flea treatments, vaccination, microchip and sterilisation

Breeding and free puppies are not illegal
It is yóur choice to support them

Emotional health and Su***de prevention is available if you ask.
Your families and friends would be greatful for the opportunity to help you before they bury you.

Our deepest sympathy to the friends and family of the woman who ended her life yesterday in Pretoria/Atterbury Bridge

The expectations of the public or feral feeders that we must be available with traps, we must have free sterilisations available and we must have transport available
Because they simply love the cats they own - and that all they have to offer.
The rest of the responsibility for sterilisation for their cats are up to us
One very important part of this equation is that the sterilisation is not for free.
We have to find vets that are prepared to offer reduced rates for private owners.
We have to find someone to sponsor the payment to the vet. The vet does get paid.
We have to find volunteers to collect traps/cats and do a round rip back after sterilisation.

It's nice to have a owner that straight out says "I only get Sassa, but I'll pay half and I'll Uber for the appointment"
And we say 😊 Of Course, thank you everyone, sorted.

Thank you to Let's Spay for another sponsorship sterilisation
Thank you to this owner that paid R250 towards her cat sterilisation and took a Uber 🚕 for her appointment
Thank you Glen VeterinaryClinic �😁and the lovely locum vet for not shouting at us

🐾 9-Week-Old Tuxedo Kitten Looking for Her Forever Home 🐾
Glen Veterinary Clinic
This little lady is full of s***k and confidence! At just 9 weeks old, she’s already showing how brave and playful she is.

Her four siblings have all been adopted, and now she’s left behind, feeling a bit lonely and waiting for someone special to give her the love she deserves.

It’s hard not to feel a little heartache knowing she’s still here, watching her brothers and sisters find their families while she waits patiently for hers.

She needs a warm, caring home where she can be the confident, lively kitten she truly is.

Adoption fee applies (This helps cover vaccinations, deworming, microchip, and sterilization.)

If you’re interested in giving this brave little tuxedo girl a loving home, please send a message or phone us on 0123616206.
She’s ready to fill your life with joy! 😃

CONFIRMED NEWS IN | Scrap collector under the heavy influence of Nyaope caught eating raw dog meat in Johannesburg ( Gauteng Province )

Pikit Up Norwood workers and SPCA inspectors were left horrified after stumbling upon a shocking scene — a known recycler allegedly devouring a raw dog he had just stolen.

"At first, we thought he was chewing on leftover meat, maybe from a bin. Only when we got closer did we realise — it was a whole dog!," said one shaken worker.

Another worker visibly traumatised, said, “We’ve seen a lot, but this? This is something else. The level of desperation and distortion is heartbreaking.”
