Why pay an adoption fee? 

There are many costs involved in looking after an abandoned pet before finding him/her a new home. On average pets stays with us for 2 months before a new home is found. In the first month alone, our cost per pet is R1865. Most pets stay much longer. Some even for over a year. Your adoption goes towards covering some of these costs.

First month's costs:

  • Sterilisation - R650

  • 1st Vaccinations - R50

  • 1st Dewormers - R25

  • 1st Flea and tick treatments - R40

  • Food for a month - R300

  • Average cost per pet for medical care, housing, electricity, water, staff involved - R800

To foster

We rely on fosters to care for our puppies and kittens for their first few months of life as they are too small and vulnerable to be in shelter kennels.
