Friends of Rescued Animals (Fora) is a registered non-profit organisation that was founded in August 2003 by the late Marlene De Beer.
Fora provides a safe and caring environment for dogs and cats until they either are claimed by their owners, or adopted. Some are provided with life-long shelter.
Fora has a pro-life policy and animals are euthanised only if they are in distress due to illness or age.
Formerly situated close to Westgate Shopping Centre, Fora moved to 1a Winsor Road, Luipaardsvlei on 24 December 2009. Their new facility has about 400 sleeping quarters for dogs, a large, open cattery and 18 cat villas.
They recently built an old age home for dogs that caters for around 60 dogs, who live out their “retirement” in comfort.
Their operating hours are: weekdays 9am to 5pm
Saturday 9am to 3pm
Sunday 9am to 1pm
They are closed on public holidays.
