LET’S MAKE 2011 ANIMAL-SUPPORTIVE
Even though the festive season is over, the National Council of SPCAs wishes to keep momentum going and asks everyone for support.
Please see how YOU can assist to improve the lives of animals: - those you live with, those in your neighbourhood and those that the SPCA movement strives to help on an ongoing basis.
With your help the National Council of SPCAs (NSPCA) and the SPCAs country-wide can conduct more investigations, can expand campaigns, increase education and can lessen the suffering of so many animals. The SPCA movement enforces animal welfare legislation and can lay criminal charges against offenders. Click here for more information.

CELEBRATE THE WILDNESS OF WILD ANIMALS
Listen to the soundtrack by clicking here and also follow the lyrics by clicking here ...
On 1 March 2011 the NSPCA launched its “Celebrate the Wildness of Wild Animals” Campaign encouraging people not to support circuses which have wild animal acts. Wild animals should not be subjected to the conditions of circus life, which involve forced transport, human handling, noise, trailer movement, confinement and crowds of people. We do not believe that performing inappropriate and unnatural tricks in the name of entertainment fosters respect for wild animals. Wild animals belong in the wild! We invite you to join the many famous celebrities and individuals who have joined forces with us and sign the pledge NOT TO SUPPORT WILD ANIMAL ACTS IN CIRCUSES.

GENERATING INCOME
The National Council of SPCAs (NSPCA) receives no government funding and never has. This is consistent with the financial status and pattern of all SPCAs in South Africa.
The NSPCA does not receive and has never received any income from a Municipality. Any SPCAs who do receive income from these sources are being paid for services rendered and are not receiving a grant. To read more click here ...
THE NSPCA WILL END THE CRUELTY OF SOW CRATES
MISLEADING THE PUBLIC AND THE PRODUCERS
The National Council of SPCAs is taking the South African Pork Producers’ Organisation (SAPPO) to task over the issue of gestation crates for pigs. SAPPO issued a media statement on 28 January stating “The following time frames are being discussed for the phasing out of gestation crates: - As of 1st January 2020 pregnant sows may only be kept in gestation crates for a maximum of 63 days.” This is unacceptable.
