SPCA in Bloemfontein received close to 700 animals─── 11:38 Mon, 31 Dec 2018
Since the beginning of December, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) in Bloemfontein has received close to 700 animals that have either been abandoned by their owners or fled from fireworks.
As South Africa and the globe get ready to welcome in the New Year tonight the SPCA has urged pet owners to protect their animals against the impending fireworks and to make sure they are safe.
These pet owners speak on how they protect their animals during the festivities.
“We try to put them inside the house so they can be protected and they don’t get exposed … we also try and keep them inside with us we leave the doors closed and windows closed but with the TV on so that they don’t hear the sound so much,” say some of the pet owners.
