Feeding Project
We are currently experiencing a huge need for pet food, especially dog food.
At this stage we feed about 60 dogs in the Batho- and Freedom Square Location areas as well as some dogs and cats in small holdings (Estoire area).
There are hundreds of dogs and cats due to the overpopulation of animals in the townships. Many of these animals are stray dogs and have to fend for themselves.
2 Kilogram food parcels are given to the dog owners on a monthly basis. For most dogs, these food parcels last for about 5 days, but unfortunately, we are not in a position to give more than the 2 kilo's per dog.
This adds up to about 120 kilograms of dog food per month.
For the rest of the month most of the dogs are dependent on "mieliepap" given by their owners to survive.
Grey College pupils with the pet food they have for Pet Action. They challenge other school children to collect more pet food for Pet Action!
The recession has a big influence on the animals as well. Most of the people don't even have food for themselves. Therefore, they don't even have "mieliepap" to feed their dogs.
As you know, dog and cat food are not "cheap" items anymore. We are currently buying the food out of our own pockets.
People occasionally donate dog and cat food, but unfortunately not on a regular basis.
