Please contact us if you know of any animal that is being neglected or treated badly. By reporting cruelty, you help to free them from suffering. No Animal Should Suffer.
We will act – but we can only do so if we know about it. We depend on people like you to be our ‘eyes and ears’ in your community. Your personal information will remain confidential.
Please contact Hazel on 072 609 1165 (Animal Emergencies Only).
Some situations that may appear as though the SPCA must get involved, aren’t actually within our mandate. Our mandate is to prevent cruelty, and in a country that spans over a million square kilometres, our Inspectors must place their focus on cases where the Animals Protection Act is being contravened. We ask that you please follow these guidelines below:
Barking Dogs
The mandate of the SPCA is to prevent cruelty to animals. However, the local Municipality and police in each town are responsible for complaints regarding animals causing a nuisance or disturbance of peace. We suggest that you contact your local Municipality or police station in order to lodge a formal complaint regarding barking dogs.
Stray Animals
The local Municipality in each town is responsible for complaints regarding stray animals, which includes animals in the street, animals causing a nuisance or animals attacking people & other animals. Please contact your local Municipality or police station for assistance in this matter.
Dead Animals
The local Municipality in each town is responsible for the collection of dead animals. Please contact your local Municipality for assistance in this matter.
