T
hanks to generous
donations, fundraising
projects and the vets
from Hermanus Animal
Hospital giving their time
and services, we vaccinate, sterilise
and treat the pets of hundreds of
underprivileged families. Through
word of mouth, owners brought 134
animals to be sterilised and 362 to
be vaccinated throughout 2015.
We also work with Rescue Animal
Drive (RAD), a local animal welfare
organisation. RAD obtains consent
from pet owners to collect their
animals from their homes and
bring them to us for sterilisation
or treatment if they are ill. We also
go with them to vaccinate animals
at their homes and do follow-
up treatments where necessary.
Through this combined effort,
we have sterilised and
vaccinated about another
394 dogs and cats in 2015.
In September, ABSA
kindly sponsored a stall
for us in their building
at the Mega Agri week
in Bredasdorp. We
handed out booklets and brochures
concerning the raising and keeping
of pets, and took the opportunity to
make people aware of what we do
and why it is important.
