Be Kind To Every Kind promotion at The Mushroom Farm

On Sunday 5 June a Be Kind to Every Kind promotion was held on the deck outside our Reading Rooster Book Store. This was part of The Country Living Fair. Thank you to our fabulous Dog walkers Bernie and Judy who were joined by Honey and Roxy who were both adopted from the Kloof and Highway SPCA and the public were encouraged to adopt when looking for a new pet. Kerry Carter displayed her maginificent artwork and our Be Kind to Every Kind booklets were sold.

Dog Box 2022

The annual Kloof and Highway SPCA Dog Box challenge was a wonderful success with over R300 000 being raised by our amazing inmates! 39 participants took on the challenge of raising R10 000 each for the Kloof & Highway SPCA. The inmates braved the cold and were “locked up” for 24 hours from 12 noon on Friday, 27 May 2022 until 12 noon on Saturday, 28 May 2022.

On the Friday evening visitors to the kennels enjoyed ice-cold Gin and Tonic or Craft Beer with Brew Krew, some delicious curry from The Curry Lady, decadent cupcakes from Sweetheart Treats, and fiery entertainment from Gareth Greaves and Kimona Kirsten.

This year the Dog Box was dedicated to the many animals who lost their lives and to the many animals who have been severely affected by the KZN Floods in April 2022. The Kloof and Highway SPCA will continue to support and assist all those who still require our help. During the aftermath of the KZN floods our Inspectorate team went out daily and we were able to distribute over a ton of food, blankets, beds, and water to badly affected areas. We are committed to being actively involved in outreach. We thank everyone who visited the inmates in our kennels and all those who help us continue the fight against animal cruelty!

If you would like to assist in any other animal related projects, host your own fundraiser/ awareness campaign, sponsor a kennel or cattery enclosure, sponsor a sterilisation, leave a legacy for the animals etc.; please contact Janine Kyle on pr@kloofspca.co.za

Reading Rooster

The Kloof and Highway SPCA Reading Rooster will close on Sunday, 17 December 2021, and re-open Monday, 17 January 2022 at The Mushroom Farm with a twist! Watch this space.

We will be selling our 2022 Colouring Calendars for R75 at the Christmas stations at Westville Mall and Watercrest Mall, from SPCA Reception and our Thrift Shops plus the Reading Rooster Bookshop.

“As custodians of this planet it is our responsibility to show all species  kindness, compassion and love. Animals have no voice, they can’t ask for help, protection or freedom. The 2022 Colouring Desk Pad Calendar is an initiative to create awareness of the beautiful sentient beings that we are privileged to share this earth with as well as the incredible natural environment which is also in desperate need of care and protection. The generosity of the sponsors during such difficult times, together with the artistic talent of Kerry Carter have made the calendar a reality. Thank you to Barbara Patrick for her trust, support and kindness in allowing us to take our vision through to fruition with such a short lead in time.”

– Janine Kyle (Calendar Producer)

Hidden Treasures Show

The Kloof and Highway SPCA would like to thank The Pavilion Shopping Centre for having our Hidden Treasures range which was an explosion of silks, chiffon, diamante, brass, silver, and embroidery mixed with the colours of Bollywood, and African sunsets and sunrises. Finished off with  original, once-off, handmade peacock and leopard print Avant guard headdresses made by Kevin Ellis and Gareth Greaves as well as choreographed and styled by Kevin Ellis. We would like to thank Roberta Alessandri Models as well for their gorgeous models and hard work.

The Killarney Brick and Block Kloof and Highway SPCA 2021 Golf Day

Was held at the Kloof Country club last Friday, November 5th for the first time in over 2 years. We loved sharing the day with some old and familiar supporters as well as many new faces. Every event of this nature is vital in our ongoing endeavor to raise as much income to support our organisation. Thank you to everyone who participated on the day and specifically to Killarney Brick and Block, Brett Venton from Kloof Village Mall Spar, Bertie Letts from Pureau, and the many people who donated prizes.

Outreach Clinic

We just love doing Outreach Clinics in very rural areas, and COVID and Lockdown changed that for our SPCA, but on 12 October to 14 October 2021, our Kloof and Highway SPCA held the most rewarding and productive initiative in the Inanda Valley at Mfula Store. The opportunity to reach those animals and people who cannot always reach us is so rewarding.

Our team of staff and volunteers, worked in the most difficult conditions when temperatures reached into the 40’s and during ‘loadshedding’. Despite various challenges, we achieved so much in this community, we sterilised their pets, we educated owners, we treated injuries, vaccinated animals against Rabies, removed unwanted animals but most importantly animals were positively impacted by our successful Outreach.

Thank you to everyone who supports our initiatives, your donations are appreciated and to Mfula Store, Gill and John Graaf, thank YOU for hosting our 2021 Outreach Clinic and for your kind hospitality. In total 150 animals were sterilised and vaccinated for Rabies, an additional 68 animals vaccinated for Rabies, 11 dogs treated for various injuries or illnesses and 38 animals humanly euthanised.

Adoption Day

Our first Adoption Day a wonderful success! The Kloof and Highway SPCA hosted the first of many Open Adoption Days on Sunday, 28 November 2021.

What a wonderful day it was for the animals, staff and exited new owners. 2 dogs went home on Sunday and 12 more dogs and cats will be homed this week!

Thank you to Hill’s Pet Nutrition for sponsoring all our lucky draws and giving us lots of treats and spoils for all our new pet parents!

Thank you to Hayley Wood, the KZN representative from Hills Pet Nutrition for taking the time to not only support but see what the day was about.

Thank you to Denise from Edupup Puppy School for spending the day with us, advising and guiding new pet owners.

It is heartening when one of our animals goes home and we need more adoptions as we have so many gorgeous animals who will make wonderful pets and deserve a second chance.
