Owing to all your kind donations, we have managed to make lots of progress with our shelter. Please check out the updates on our Shelter News page.
SPECIAL THANKS !!
Please visit our Shelter Projects and Donations page to view our ‘special thanks’ – without your generous assistance and donations, we would never be able to take such good care of our pets.
Please visit our Donations page if you are able to assist us at any stage.
We are still in need of the following items, if you are able to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Please email Tammy or contact her on 083-377-3129.
Highest Priority
Vet’s Bill
Our monthly Vet’s bill is one of our biggest expenses but without the services of the amazing team at Paulshof Veterinary Clinic, we are unable to treat the many injuries of our pets, many of which are rescued from horrendous situations. We desperately need help with our vet’s bill and every contribution towards this is appreciated. Please make a donation to the Shelter or directly to our Vet using 4Paws Animal Shelter and your name as your reference. Click onto the link at the top right of this page to make a donation or donate directly to our vet using the information below.

Yes, we need VOLUNTEERS. We need casual and weekend-warrior volunteers to help with the many numerous tasks at our Shelter. We need warriors who are brave, fit and not afraid of hard work. Sometimes dirty but always rewarding. Kids from 12 years and up are welcome. Commit to 2 hours a week, 1 morning a week or whatever works for you. Commit your husband for a few hours, bring all your staff etc. Please note we are open during weekdays and every second saturday.
4paws has the drive, but not the cars

High Priority
Dog Dip
It is again the season of ticks and fleas and because our dogs are walked daily, we are in urgent need to DOG DIP so we can routinely dip them.
If we don’t regularly dip all the dogs during this season, they risk catching unpleasant diseases from ticks and fleas.
We are hoping we can count on you again. If you are able to assist, please email Tammy.

A Big Thank you from Four Paws
Four Paws would like to thank all our recent donors and sponsors for their very generous support recently. We have received so much support that we’re taking longer than usual to thank everybody personally. Please accept a group hug from all of our residents at the shelter. Without your ongoing support, our lives would’ve been so very different and we are so grateful for your kindness and support.
