Clinics
Clinics are run weekly in Bo-Dorp to offer primary health care to local animals. We vaccinate, deworm, and treat for ticks, fleas, mange, and other external parasites. Sick animals are directed to Cornerstone where the welfare fund will assist if and where possible.Sterilisation
Once a week, with permission from the owners, we collect approximately 5 animals from Nkqubela or Bo Dorp and transport them to Cornerstone Veterinary Clinic. We sterilise and deworm them, and treat for fleas, ticks, lice and mange. We keep the patients overnight to monitor their recovery and then transport them home with a bag of food, a blanket and sometimes a donated kennel. We ask the owners to make a donation they can afford. We never refuse those who cannot pay.Mass Sterilisation Days
We've joined forces with FRIENDS OF CARE. Together with the amazing Delyth Jones we set up a clinic in a Wendy House in McGregor where we perform a day of mass sterilisation.Our indispensable anesthetic machine accompanies us wherever we go. - a constant reminder of the generosity of John Gatt (in memory of his late mother Barbara Anne Gatt.)
