Pets benefit from Lowveld Vet’s Mandela Day efforts

Lowveld Vet once again sterilised dogs and cats at no charge to the owners on Mandela Day.

The communities of KaBokweni, Katoen and Msholozi were targeted, but animals from the White River SPCA and a feral cat population were also helped.

Animals were collected from the owners, brought to the practice and returned when they were ready.

At Dwaleni and on the KaBokweni main road next to Maphakama Primary School, stations were set up where vets did vaccinations and volunteers assisted with tick and flea treatment, deworming and educational talks on animal care.

Several volunteers provided aftercare to animals after their operations at the clinic in White River itself.
