BREAKING NEWS:
Animal overpopulation epidemic in Khayelitsha and SA.MAST mass animal sterilisation & primary treatment programme will be on E-TV news, Sunday, 20 May at 7pm. |
 |
|

Almost every week we have a MASSIVE sponsored ad in the Vukani newspaper, distributed throughout Khayelitsha. The ad invites pet guardians from this area to contact us so that we can:
|
1. |
Arrange to sterilise their pets |
|
2. |
Provide sterilisation patients with their primary treatment too |
|
3. |
Assist as much as we can with medical emergencies |
The ad also gives basic pet care advice and the phone has been RINGING OFF THE HOOK! The response has been stupendous, BUT unfortunately we do not have enough monthly funding to sterilise all these patients all at the same time. Our waiting list is already at two months and growing...13 sterilisation days (325 patients) have been scheduled between now and the end of June, BUT its not enough, please help us to do more, MUCH, MUCH MORE!
