The dedicated inspectorate team of the Cape of Good Hope SPCA took on the 5km Sanlam Peace Run this past Saturday to raise critical funds in their relentless fight to protect those who cannot speak for themselves.

Cape Town, South Africa (21 October 2024) – On the crisp Saturday morning of 19 October, the Cape of Good Hope SPCA team of dedicated inspectors laced up their running shoes and took on the 5km Sanlam Peace Run.

With every stride, they carried the weight of countless animals who have suffered, those still waiting for rescue, and those who have found comfort in their care.

Led by Chief Inspector Jaco Pieterse, the team’s efforts were a powerful statement against animal cruelty.

Thanks to the incredible support of those who generously ploughed into the fundraising initiative, Cape of Good Hope SPCA was able to raise 50% of their R100,000 goal!

“This race was more than just a run. It was a statement—we will never stop fighting against animal cruelty.

“Your donations keep our inspectors on the road, rescuing animals from abuse and neglect. They provide medical care, food, shelter, and love to animals who have known nothing but pain,” the organisation said.

To all those who contributed, cheered and stood in solidarity with the runners in the fight against cruelty, the Cape of Good Hope SPCA thanks you!

“Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we are unstoppable. Together, we are their voice.”

But their mission is far from over. There’s still time to donate and help them reach their ultimate goal!

Every rand you give makes a difference in an animal’s life. Visit the Cape of Good Hope SPCA’s GivenGain page to make a donation.

From pet food donations to monetary contributions, the Kloof and Highway SPCA has been overwhelmed by the generosity of the community which has made their invaluable work possible.

Kloof, South Africa (17 October 2024) – With a heart filled with thanksgiving, the Kloof and Highway SPCA recently took to social media to thank its selfless supporters for continuously pouring into their cup.

The animal rescue recently acknowledged and thanked everyone who generously donates to their worthy cause which serves as a lifeline to countless animals in need.

“Often those who donate and help the most never ask for a ‘thank you’. We want you to know how much we appreciate your support always,” the organisation said.

The SPCA’s staff and volunteers have also been working tirelessly to spruce up the space and tea garden, creating a haven for animals, a place where they can find love, care, and a second chance at life.

“Our dog walkers have ensured that our goats have an enrichment area, and some volunteers helped do a garden in our Village Green.

“We have also had some wonderful students come and do community service and help us too. Donated plants are sold in our nursery, and your unwanted donated goods keep our charity shops stocked.”

Whether it be through donating unwanted household goods, pet food, volunteering or monetary donations, none of these developments would be possible without the generosity and kindness of animal lovers who don’t think twice about supporting the incredible work of assisting vulnerable animals.

South Africa, it’s time to #ChangeOneThing! By signing the “Save the Last of South Africa’s Rhinos” petition, you can show your solidarity and amplify the call for stronger protection measures for our beloved rhinos.

Johannesburg, South Africa (15 October 2024) – Far too many precious rhinos have suffered at the hands of heartless and greedy poachers, robbing our wildlife of their basic right to life and putting them at threat of extinction.

But, now is the time for your voice to be heard and join the fight to safeguard these iconic animals for generations to come.

Jamie Joseph from Saving the Wild, in collaboration with the Jane Goodall Institute’s Roots and Shoots South Africa, is dedicated to introducing legislation in South Africa that will protect rhinos and other wildlife from poaching.

By introducing stricter legislation, the organisations aim to create a safer haven for rhinos and other wildlife. They are calling upon South Africans to join forces and demand change.

“As it stands, there is no strict legislation to protect our rhinos from dangerous poaching practices,” says Kayla Hovelmeier, a Jane Goodall Institute’s Roots and Shoots South Africa volunteer.

Jamie Joseph will be taking the lead and heading to parliament to present a comprehensive proposal to the Minister of Forestries, Fisheries, and Environment.

However, the success of this endeavour depends on the unwavering support of the public. The only way parliament will see that this is important is by seeing that real South Africans are passionate about this change and protecting rhinos.

“Most rhino poaching cases do not get to trial, and if there is a conviction, it is either a fine or a prison term of less than five years that almost never gets served in its entirety,” Jamie explains.

For this very reason, the great public is being encouraged to sign the Save the Last of South Africa’s Rhinos petition and add their names so that the Minister can see how many people are demanding the protection of our rhinos and wildlife.

The goal is to reach at least 10,000 signatures for #RhinoLaws before Jamie goes into parliament.

To be a part of the solution and ensure that rhinos can roam the wild free of the threat of poaching, add your name to the petition at https://www.change.org/p/save-the-last-of-south-africa-s-rhinos-with-legislation

After suffering a nasty kick from a zebra, a tiny injured Nyala calf named Rimmy was welcomed to the Friends of Free Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, where he began his journey of recovery with much care and attention.

Midrand, South Africa (14 October 2024) – Friends of Free Wildlife recently welcomed their first and most adorable antelope patient, with big ears, dark eyes, and endearingly long, wobbly legs.

The team of wildlife heroes was thrilled to welcome a beautiful male Nyala calf, named “Rimmy”, to occupy one of the stalls in the facility’s brand-new mammal enclosure.

According to the wildlife rehabilitation centre, Rimmy started life off on the wrong foot when he was kicked by a zebra at the lodge where he was born.

He unfortunately sustained a fracture to the radius on his left front leg and was meticulously treated by Dr Jean at Bryanston Avian, Exotic and Small Animal Clinic (BAESAC).

The dedicated team at Friends of Free Wildlife, along with the expertise of veterinarians at Onderstepoort Wildlife Clinic, worked tirelessly to mend Rimmy’s broken bones and restore his mobility.

Thankfully, it wasn’t long until Rimmy was back on his feet sporting a fancy purple bandage covering a contraption known as an ‘external ring fixator’.

“The surgeon is very happy with his progress and the fixator and bandages have now been removed.

“We are extremely fortunate and most grateful to one of our volunteers, Janet, who sprung into action and within minutes secured sponsorship from RIMKEM for the entire procedure,” said Lauren Haupt of Friends of Free Wildlife.

Rimmy is well on the road to recovery. Special thanks go to the wonderful vets at Onderstepoort and the formidable animal specialists Claudius and Meg, who have been keeping the little calf comfortable, fed and happy from morning to night.

Now, it is not every day you get to stumble upon a majestic Southern Elephant Seal in KZN! Local beachgoers were thrilled to encounter this gentle giant, who seemed to be enjoying some R&R under the sun.

KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (14 October 2024) – A rare and unexpected visitor – a juvenile yet very robust Southern Elephant Seal swam ashore at Rocky Bay Beach on the KwaZulu-Natal south coast last Thursday, much to the delight and adoration of many local beachgoers.

The uShaka Sea World team, led by Senior Aquarist Rob Kyle, Assistant Curator Bilal Limbada, and Veterinarian Dr Francois Lampen, wasted no time rushing to the beach to assist the stranded seal. His strength and location earned him the adorable name “Rocky”.

According to the South African Association for Marine Biological Research (SAAMBR), these seals are not normally found along the KZN coastline, which is about 2,000km from their home.

“Usually, when seals strand on KZN beaches with obvious injuries, they are brought into our rehabilitation facility for treatment, and then released.

“When Rocky was examined on the beach by Dr Lampen, he appeared to be healthy and had possibly hauled out onto the beach to rest after his long swim,” SAAMBR said.

After a thorough assessment, Rocky was given the green light to be released to a quieter beach to continue resting without interruption.

He was also fitted with a flipper tag, which, if seen in the future, will allow the team to monitor his movements and correctly identify him in both the short and long term.

While irresistibly adorable to any animal lover, the SAAMBR emphasised the importance of being mindful that juvenile Elephant seals found on the beach, where they enjoy rest, can be dangerous if approached.

“If you see Rocky on the beach, please keep your distance and allow him to rest. If you are able to see the tag on his hind flipper, please stay at least 5 meters away from him to take a picture and send it to us on any of our social platforms.”

The St Francis Animal Rescue has had an extraordinary month, dedicated to providing care and compassion to the vulnerable animals of the Sea Vista township.

St Francis Bay, South Africa (08 October 2024) – The past month has been a very busy and rewarding one at the St Francis Animal Rescue, which has a dedicated team of animal heroes who have been working round the clock to care for the most vulnerable animals of the Sea Vista township in the Eastern Cape.

Animal welfare is a tiresome yet very rewarding calling. In September alone, the animal rescue managed to sterilise 12 dogs and two cats, treat 46 animals at the vet, vaccinate 50 dogs and pups, deworm 150 pups and provide essential care to countless others.

Beyond veterinary services, the rescue team also conducted outreach initiatives, distributing pet food and blankets to community members and selling subsidised food through local spaza shops.

These efforts have made a significant difference in the lives of both animals and their owners in the Sea Vista community.

“It’s always a little overwhelming. Dogs jumping and barking, running for joy, fighting amongst one another. Dozens and dozens of little kids, some as young as five, leading the family dog onto the field.

“Puppies in barrows, baskets and boxes to be vaccinated and dewormed. Sick and wounded dogs that need to be treated or ferried to the Humansdorp Vet Clinic. Dogs to be bathed and groomed, not all happy at the prospect.  The best thing to do is take a deep breath, set up your table and get on with helping to improve the lives of the dogs of Sea Vista,” the animal rescue said, reflecting on its unwavering commitment.

This is not a drill! If raising puppies sounds like your dream ‘job’, then you’ll be thrilled to know that the SA Guide-Dogs Association is looking for puppy raiser volunteers!

South Africa (04 October 2024) — Training heroes with tails for a super cause is a pretty unique gig. Not only do you get to spend precious time as a puppy raiser, but you’ll also kickstart the young pooch’s journey as a life-changing pal who will go on to positively impact the lives of visually impaired and physically disabled people, as well as children on the Autism spectrum.

If raising a puppy for such an important cause sounds like your dream ‘job’, then we’ve got news that’ll make your ears perk up like a puppy hearing ‘walkies’.

The South African Guide-Dogs Association is in search of volunteers to help them raise puppies.

Here’s How it Works!

You will receive the puppy at around eight weeks old from the association along with a puppy pack that contains all the puppy essentials (a collar, lead, jacket, chew toy, treat bag and a blanket. Your puppy will also get access to vaccinations, deworming meds, and tick and flea protection throughout its time with you (all food and vet bills will be covered).

For the many months you two will be together (until the pup is 16 months old), there will be a lot of adventures to be had.

From cuddles and walks to training sessions, the puppy raiser will need to be prepared to spend a lot of time with their four-legged bestie. So, people who love taking their dogs everywhere they go would be perfect candidates!

As for the training sessions, the puppy raiser and the dog will need to attend once a week at the SA Guide Dogs’ premises. Classes are an hour long and run by a Puppy Raising Supervisor.

When 16 months flies by, the puppy will graduate to formal training. Puppy raisers will get to have their dogs at home with them over weekends and holidays, so it won’t be a goodbye just yet.

Once formal training is done and dusted, it’ll be time to let the dog off the leash as they match with a new person whose life will become one of freedom and independence thanks to the dog you raised. They’ll be all grown up and an official Guide Dog, Service Dog or Autism Support Dog.

Puppy Raiser Requirements

• 18 years or older
• A responsible dog lover
• A calm and patient temperament
• Physical fitness and capable of caring for a puppy
• Flexible hours (even if you have a full-time office job)
• Availability to attend the weekly training sessions on weekdays for 21 weeks during office hours
• Availability to attend monthly or bi-monthly outings with the pup and other raisers
• Have your own transport and a valid driver’s license
• Be able to commit up to 16 months with the puppy

You can sign up by emailing AlidaP@guidedog.org.za and find more info at www.guidedog.org.za

Moved by the compassion for rescue dogs, Leigh Newlands will embark on her biggest challenge yet – the 23km Ultra-Trail Cape Town to raise funds for TEARS Animal Rescue.

Cape Town, South Africa (02 October 2024) – There is truly something to admire about a person who is willing to trade the ease and comforts of their life for sacrifice and endurance out of pure compassion for those in need.

Stepping out of her comfort zone for a noble cause, Leigh Newlands is embarking on a challenging trail run. On 23 November, she’ll tackle the 23km Ultra-Trail Cape Town (UTCT) route, a distance far beyond her previous limits.

The proud pet parent of two rescue pups shared that she wants this personal challenge to count as more than just a personal milestone.

“I’m dedicating this run to a cause that’s incredibly close to my heart: animal rescue. As a proud pet parent of two rescue pups, I know firsthand the joy and love of giving these animals a second chance,” Leigh explained.

Funds raised by Leigh will go to TEARS Animal Rescue, an organisation that is dedicated to assisting vulnerable animals, rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming those who need it most. They do extraordinary work in giving animals a second chance at life.

“This cause is especially meaningful to me because one of our rescue pups, Banksy, came from TEARS. For every R500 donated, I’ll take on an extra obstacle on the trail, such as burpees, lunges or push-ups, and share it live on IG story.”

By supporting Leigh’s run, you’re doing more than helping her cross the finish line, but also giving animals in need the chance at a better future.

“If you believe in second chances (and that I can complete this run!), I’d love for you to be part of this journey,” Leigh shared.

To donate, visit Leigh’s GivenGain page here. Let’s get more pups into loving homes!

Little Paws Big Hearts is proud to have a strong team of men who share their passion and dedication to improving the life of every dog and cat in townships in Secunda.

Secunda, South Africa (02 October 2024) – The work of animal welfare is generally run and headed by women, who dedicate countless hours to serving, protecting and nurturing vulnerable animals, often at personal sacrifice.

While this stands true for many organisations – and is truly inspiring – the men are showing up in their numbers down at Little Paws Big Hearts in Secunda, Mpumalanga.

“We at Little Paws are very fortunate to have men who share our passion and love for animals. They are involved in all actions regarding our outreaches and day-to-day tasks. We are very proud to work alongside them.

“Our last outreach in Afghanistan was quite the surprise when our girls were totally outnumbered. What a privilege to stand between these awesome team members,” the organisation shared.

Little Paws Big Hearts works tirelessly to assist dogs and cats in the Secunda area and does outreach initiatives for feedings, treatments and sterilisations at four townships every month – something that says a lot about the team’s compassion and dedication to animals.

With their phones almost non-stop, the team also assists the ill and injured township dogs, ensuring they receive medical attention and do their level best to provide additional assistance despite not having a proper shelter.

Despite facing challenges like limited resources, the team at Little Paws Big Hearts tirelessly works to assist dogs and cats in their community.

Without the support and generosity of the public, the animal charity organisation cannot carry on its incredible work. To make a contribution or to get involved, contact info@littlepaws.org.za.

With tireless effort and perseverance, the Wild Heart Wildlife Foundation is working hard to transform a neglected farm into a sanctuary and rehabilitation centre for wildlife in Limpopo. Countless creatures have already found refuge and rehabilitation at the new facility but assistance is needed to fully equip it.

Limpopo, South Africa (30 September 2024) – The Wild Heart Wildlife Foundation (WHWF), committed to the care and conservation of wildlife throughout Southern Africa, has achieved a major milestone by acquiring a permanent property to serve as its rehabilitation centre.

According to the foundation, for founders Carina Crayton and Paul Oxton, the dream has always been to have a Wildlife Rehabilitation Center of their own.

“So, when the time came and the property we had been based on in Roodepoort was sold, we were offered the farm we are currently on, in Limpopo, to start our own facility.

“The move was incredibly expensive, as we had a lot of cages, capture and treatment equipment to transport,” Carina shares.

The new Rehabilitation Center is based 35km outside of Naboomspruit (Mookgopong), on the Roedtan side, on the beautiful Springbokvlakte of the bushveld.

Since being there, Carina and Paul have had many successful rescues, treatments and releases, from Ungulungu the meerkat to several tortoises, owls, birds of prey, porcupines, caracals, squirrels, bushbabies, snakes and many more.

“We are making a difference, and that is what it’s all about. The future of wildlife is in our hands. If it is at all within our power to do so, we will help,” says Carina.

The neglected farmhouse required much renovation work to make it liveable before the WHWF team could start working on the clinic building and the outside area to build second-stage enclosures and outbuilding store rooms.

They have also completed the most beautiful tortoise enclosure where tortoise patients can spend some time recuperating before being genetically mapped for suitable release sites.

“We also applied for our permits from Nature Conservation, which are mandatory for any ethically-minded wildlife rehabilitation center. This process took quite some time, but could not be bypassed.”

Despite the challenges and expenses involved in the move, the Wild Heart Wildlife Foundation remains committed to its mission.

While founders Carina and Paul Oxton have done an impressive job of building what promises to be a haven for neglected and injured wildlife in their new home, they are still in need of important equipment and supplies to carry out their services effectively.

These items include; bush-clearing equipment, fencing and construction materials, some stainless steel treatment tables, a sonar machine, a portable X-ray machine, solar backup power and a serious water filtration system.

To assist with supplies or to make a donation, contact WHWF at wildheartwf.info@gmail.com.
