Who We Are
The Tshwane SPCA was founded in 1910 and operates in terms of the SPCA Act of 1993 that governs all SPCAs in South Africa. Our core function is the prevention of cruelty to animals and we do this through responding to reports of cruelty, neglect and abandonment, as well as educating the public on responsible pet ownership.

We help animals in distress...
What We Do
We help animals in distress – be it an injured animal at the side of the road, or animals that have been abused by their owners – we also do routine checks on places dealing with animals, such as pet shops, zoos, circuses, etc.
Our Products
- Dog and cat food
- Pet products – leads, collars, harnesses, jackets
- Veterinary products – dewormer, dips
- Charity Shop – good, used second hand goods
Why Support Us
We have been running for over 100 years and have a dedicated and passionate staff. Our team of inspectors deal with over 50 000 animals of all sorts per year, and all this without any government funding – only with the support of the community we serve. While your animals are cared for – think of others that are less fortunate.
Adopt a Pet
Instead of purchasing a pet, why not adopt one of the animals in our Animal Care Centre? We have many kittens, cats, puppies and dogs looking for a loving and caring home – and in return they promise to give you all their affection and many years of joy and comfort.

A voice for Animals...
In 2010 our team of inspectors visited almost 22 000 animals and conducted almost 4 000 investigations. Working 24-hour days for 365 days a year, the inspectorate is the first and most powerful port of call for anyone who suspects that an animal is being abused.
The Tshwane SPCA also offers a range of additional services aimed at serving animals in need and promoting the humane treatment of animals.
Our Projects and Services include
- Sterilizations: offering affordable sterilizations for dog and cat owners
- Awareness: reaching at least one school per month and promoting responsible pet ownership
- Animal adoptions: promoting adoption of animals from animal shelters rather than buying animals
- Cruelty to animals: ongoing service to protect animals and respond to reports of animal cruelty
"Proactively promoting animal welfare and enforcing animal protection legislation"
