For the next four months, the SPCA’s annual fundraiser will be open for donations. Last year, Edenvale SPCA raised R141 598
With the community’s support, Edenvale SPCA hopes to match that amount or raise more.
Administrator Samantha Lubbe said it is only through the community’s generosity that the SPCA is able to look after the animals under its care.
Funds raised will assist the organisation reach the new year as it manages its busiest period of the year.
“Animals are abandoned, either dumped or surrendered due to people not making proper arrangements for their pets when they go on away,” said Samantha.
She said during this time of year incidents of cruelty increase and more animals need to be rescued.
“The more animals that come in, the more we will fill up, and along with that comes additional costs,” said Samantha.
These include food, medical treatment, washing blankets, paperwork, fuel, vehicle services and maintenance to name a few.
