Want to get involved by volunteering, but not sure how? The BE KIND Foundation desperately needs transporters to help get animals sterilized.

If you live in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town and want to get involved, this is a great way of doing it. Contact them today!

URGENT PLEA FOR TRANSPORT VOLUNTEERS

As you know, sterilization forms a huge part of what we do. This vital service we offer to the communities we work in can sometimes be tricky - especially since both Jessica and Tarryn work full time. But without being able to sterilize, we run the risk of allowing hundreds of unwanted puppies and kittens being born. Dogs and cats that will live on the streets, be hungry and cold and wet and unwanted. The thought breaks our hearts 💔

We're looking for volunteers to help us transport dogs to the vet and back again when needed. What does this mean exactly?

✔️ We will provide you with a collar/harness and lead to help transport the dog, or a cat carrier for cats.
✔️ We will bring the animal to you, or meet you in a central place. This means you never have to worry about transporting animals in unsafe areas - your safety is vitally important to us!
✔️ The vet arrangements will be made and paid by us, you just need to get the animal there and pick it up again later in the day.
✔️ We are happy to cover your fuel costs if need be.

We are particularly looking for volunteers in the Northern Suburbs, as we service those areas and use the Belville AACL for sterilizations.

If you feel like you could help, even just once in a while, please contact Tarryn on 0723800455.

‼️ We desperately need your help ‼️

One of my favorite things about working in welfare is meeting amazing, like minded people... often times strong, fierce, unstopable women 💪🏻.
Today I got to meet DelRay from SOS - Saviors Of Siberians and Jessica from The BE KIND Foundation.

What truly inspiring, caring, welcoming and giving spirits they are! Please go and like their pages and check out the amazing work they are doing.

We all need to support each other.

How beautiful is this prooper!!

In foster to adopt home.

Cape Town 💜 gorgeous-ness herself over here Princess Patch is beyond adorable!

She does have super sensitive skin as you might have noticed in the photo, her feet have a bit of a rash again but nothing a bit of TLC and F10 cream can't remedy. Doesn't help that little Miss Muffet keeps nibbling at it either but otherwise she is a healthy, happy, pudgy 3 month old girl looking for love and her very own forever home.

She's an absolute love-bug, she will sit on your lap and simply snuggle although she does have a bit of a mischievous side to her too. She'd be best suited in a home with one friendly (sterilized) male companion, please no small breeds or cats. Or as an only dog. She's phenomenal but a very determined young lady and not afraid to stand her ground. YOU will be her everything and she needs you to be hers too.

For more information please WhatsApp Robyn on: 076 673 4734 or complete our online adoption application -

World meet Lilly Rose! A gorgeous small-medium sized girl from HAWK. She’s done so well in her foster home and is thriving on the love, attention and training classes. She’s fully house trained, and is a calm and delightful dog to have around. She likes fetching a ball, going for walks and cuddling on the couch. She really is a darling and we’d love to find her a happy forever home.
