A new date will be communicated in due course.
The society set a target of 250 sterilisations this Mandela Month, and they sterilised 67 animals from July 5 to 12.
“Thank you to all our supporters who have contributed towards our Mandela Month sterilisation campaign. To individuals or companies who have not yet donated to this worthy cause, please do,” said Vicky Finnemore, manager of the Boksburg SPCA.
