Durban SPCA holds outreach programme in Ntuzuma

With the help of community leaders, residents were invited to bring their cats, dogs, puppies, and kittens for a health check and sterilisation.

THE Durban & Coast SPCA recently conducted a successful community outreach in Ntuzuma.

According to Tanya Fleischer, marketing manager of the association, this was made possible by a special sponsorship and the collaboration of local community leaders.

Inspectors, field officers, and support staff travelled in a convoy to the heart of Ntuzuma, setting up outside a parish property.

“With the help of community leaders, residents were invited to bring their cats, dogs, puppies, and kittens for a health check and sterilisation. Animals were checked in, given a health assessment, and then safely transported to the SPCA in Springfield Park. Upon arrival, each animal was weighed, dewormed, vaccinated against rabies, treated for fleas, and made comfortable in clean kennels with fresh blankets, food, and water,” she explained.

The following day all animals were safely returned to the delight of their loving owners.

“It was truly heartwarming to see how much the community cares about their animals. Thanks to the generosity of our donor and the incredible support from Ntuzuma’s community leaders, we were able to make a real difference and give back to the people and animals who need it most.”
