TO ALL
READERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO ASSIST WITH OUR “WISH LIST” FOR THE REFURBISHMENT OF
THE SURGERY AND KENNELS AT THE HARARE SPCA. We sent a letter out last week
explaining the dire need to upgrade the surgery at the Harare Spca and the need
to build a new convalescence block and kennels. I made an error on the email
address which we are using as a contact for this project. Please contact the
following if you are able to help in cash or kind christines@zol.co.zw . or email me .
Yesterday
we had over 200 dogs in our care. The situation we are faced with is extremely
serious. So many dogs are arriving with serious injuries. Road traffic
accidents are claiming many animals’ lives. The survivors are admitted with
broken limbs and more. Some animals are neglected and are basically starving
and diseased . Dogs arrive with fight wounds that are the evidence that they
are living on the streets and fighting over scraps of food. Pregnant bitches
are dropped off by owners that no longer want them. Bitches and their
surviving pups are found and brought into the surgery by compassionate
individuals. They are emaciated and frightened ,the pups are covered in fly
bites and ticks. Sadly, some do not make it . Cats and dogs are being
surrendered on a daily basis. We also have over 40 puppies in desperate
need of homes. Believe it or not we have 7 JRs , one being a mum with 5 ,
newborn , superb puppies. Kittens of every description are waiting for homes
too .The animals that are beyond help are humanely put o sleep. This is an
incredibly heartbreaking, daily occurrence that our vets and management have to
deal with .It is the hardest situation to decide if an animal will have a
quality life in the future or if it’s time is up.
We cannot
move forward and improve the situation without your help. Please give these
animals a chance at a better life. They did not ask to be born . They do not
understand neglect and abuse. Yet when they are adopted they become the most
loyal of pets.
