Latest news

Dear Animal Friends,

From the bottom of our hearts – thank you.

Over the past week, as devastating storms and freezing weather swept through our community, your generosity carried us through. Whether you donated financially, sent blankets, provided tumble driers, or simply shared our appeals, you became part of a lifeline for the animals who depended on us.

Because of you, we were able to keep the doors of Mdzananda Animal Clinic and Shelter open during the storm. Even more importantly, we were able to go out into the Khayelitsha community to assist and uplift dogs in need, bringing warmth, care, hope, and relief during incredibly difficult conditions.

Your support did not only help us survive one stormy week – it is going to help us through the long, cold winter months ahead. Every blanket will warm a cold dog or cat. Every donation will help us continue providing medical care, shelter, food, and emergency support. Every act of kindness is making a real and lasting difference.

To every donor – big and small – please know that your compassion matters deeply. Together, we are protecting and changing the lives of the animals of Khayelitsha.

Thank you for standing with us, for believing in our mission, and for showing such incredible kindness when it was needed most.

With gratitude,
The Mdzananda Animal Clinic and Shelter Team
