Sterilisation Drive
2024.

Your gift saves
lives.

Every R550 saves a life. Will you donate today?

 
Countless animals in Cape Town suffer from homelessness, suffering and pain. But you can change their story. With a donation of R550, you can:
 
Grant a dog or cat a loving future: Sterilisation prevents unwanted litters, keeping animals off the streets and out of shelters.
 
Protect their health: Vaccinations, deworming, and tick & flea medication shield them from preventable diseases and parasites.
 
Your compassion can end their suffering.
 
Donate below and be a hero for Cape Town’s animals.

About ARO

Relieving the sick and suffering animals living within impoverished communities

Animal Rescue Organisation (ARO) is a registered NPO (003-967-NPO) and Public Benefit Organisation (PBO 130001093) established in 1986 with a mission to relieve the suffering of animals living within indigent communities across the Cape Metropole.

ARO is not a pet shelter, but is a welfare veterinary hospital service concentrating on a number of important areas of work including sterilisation and primary health care. 

ARO Mobile Clinics are run by registered and experienced AWA’s (Animal Welfare Assistants) which are sent out into extremely poor and indigent communities and informal settlements including, but not limited to, Guguletu, Nyanga, Delft, Browns Farm and similar areas within the wider Cape Metropole.

In addition, ARO runs a fully equipped welfare hospital in Ottery providing welfare services to members of the public earning less than R20 000 gross monthly household income.

Girly's Ear Adventure 🐾❤️Our brave girl, Girly, had a little scare with an ear infection. Unfortunately, all the scratching led to a hematoma on her ear flap. Thankfully, her owners brought her in right away, and our amazing vet was able to drain it.Girly might not have been too thrilled about having one side "bandaged up" for a bit, but she's on the mend now with some meds.#Animalhospital #Animalrescueorgansiation #GirlyTheBrave #VetVisit #EarInfection #Recovery
