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.

Despite almost losing hope, the Collings family was reunited with their beloved dog, Rain, after a heartwrenching two-year separation.

KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa (21 August 2024) – Losing a pet can be heartbreaking because they become cherished members of the family, forming strong emotional bonds that can be difficult to disconnect from. Something that the Collings family knows all too well.

On the day their dog, Rain disappeared, they received reports of someone seen with her and another of a dog resembling Rain being sold. Despite these leads, the Collings family yearned for their beloved dog who had vanished two years ago.

The loss of Rain devastated the Collings family, as she was a cherished and joyful member of their household. Their grandchildren used to spend hours playing with her as she reportedly loved balls.

Although heartbroken and starting to lose hope, the family’s lingering faith was not in vain as their prayers were finally answered.

On Tuesday 9 July, Kloof and Highway SPCA Field Officer Sipho Mkhize received a call about a stray on the road, to which he responded.

“On returning to the SPCA, the staff immediately scanned her for a microchip, and much to their relief, she was chipped. You can imagine the surprise, the relief, the disbelief, and the excitement that Mr. Collings experienced. He must have been overwhelmed with so many emotions.

“Mr Collings and his son arrived to see and collect Rain, and no words will do justice to how everyone felt seeing this reunion,” Kloof SPCA reported.

With a big smile and a wagging tail, Rain was just as excited to be reunited with her owners and to be back playing ball.

Now, this is a happy ending that has us fighting back tears! While there is no knowing what Rain’s life was like over the last two years, we know her future is filled with love and happiness with the Collings.
