On December 1, the Randfontein Herald reported on Gucci, who was found wandering the streets of Helikon Park with a bag filled with rubbish strapped to his back.

No More Tears Animal Rescue volunteer Clarisse Kruger explained that they shared Gucci’s story widely and followed up on every lead, but could not locate an owner.

She said some social media comments suggested Gucci had been seen with a woman, but she has not been seen since. Despite No More Tears’ own searches, the owner remains unknown.

After a thorough veterinary check, Gucci is now ready for adoption to a loving, forever home.

“He is currently in the care of Randfontein Animal Hospital and is doing well, keeping everyone on their toes. The normal adoption process applies.”
