Boots Loving Life With Her New Family

Boots Loving Life With Her New Family

Cindy and Boots – a love story

From childhood, we all know that ‘once upon a time’ is how every good story begins.  And this story follows through about a small black dog found tied to another dog which had died.

Completely entangled, unable to move, traumatised and scared, she was thankfully rescued and brought in to us.  We’d recently lost a staff member who’d brought sunshine into everyone’s lives, so we passed on her name – Cindy – to this little dog.

Canine Cindy carried on her namesake’s tradition of bringing sunshine into everyone’s lives, steadily creeping into all our hearts.  And eventually, grown in confidence, Cindy was ready for adoption.

Enter the heroes of this story – a caring couple looking to provide a loving home for a dog. As in all rewarding fairy tales, it was love at first sight on both sides.

This could have been ‘the end’, but it wasn’t!

In a second chapter of this story, someone in a shopping centre parking lot heard pitiful crying coming from the boot of a car, and waited for the driver to return.

Once confronted, he handed over the terrified little dog, and again she was brought to us. Boots, as she affectionately became known, grew into a vivacious, cheeky and opinionated character, loved by all.

When Cindy’s owners came back to visit us they decided to adopt Boots.  Boots went home with her new family, where she’s now best friends with Cindy.

All that’s left to say is, ‘they lived happily ever after.’

SPCA Hero – Siya Ntuli

SPCA Hero – Siya Ntuli

Siya is the epitome of what a person who works in animal welfare should be.

 He is a true warrior for the animals and loves them fiercely.

Siya loves a happy ending and is all smiles when an animal can be saved and adopted. He has a quiet demeanor and masks his sadness when he is unable to help an animal he wishes to. Siya works with passion and dedication and goes over and beyond the call of duty.

When he lost his home during the floods, against all odds he made it into work as he was worried about his beloved animals. He has a genuine heart for all animals. He will be there for them when no one else is looking, or sees, or cares – this is what makes him our HERO.

Siya – you are the shining light for those animals you care for and love. Thank YOU for being the best example of what everyone who claims to love animals should be! You never lose sight of WHY and you genuinely notice those others turn away from as they may not cross all the boxes and are another statistic – not to you, to you they ALL matter!

SPCA Hero – Petra Abrams

SPCA Hero – Petra Abrams

Humble, hardworking, kind and compassionate are words that aptly describe Inspector Petra Abrams.

Petra goes the extra mile when it comes to ensuring animal cruelty is dealt with. She educates and assists people wherever possible to ensure animal owners know what is best for their animals.

Petra knows the law as far as animal cruelty is concerned and will attain a warrant wherever she feels necessary if it is going to abate cruelty to an animal. Petra loves doing pre-home checks for prospective adoptees of our animals and is thrilled when she can witness an unwanted or stray animal going to a new home and getting its second chance to be loved as it should be.

Seeing an animal’s life turned around for the better gives her a deep satisfaction. It is not an easy job and she sees a lot of terrible suffering. Inspector Abrams joined our SPCA 9 years ago. We are grateful to Inspector Abrams for her dedication and love of all animals and look forward to having her as a part of our team for many more years to come.
