| The SPCA is often telephoned by distressed members of the public requesting them to clear the cats from their vicinity. The callers are tired of the mess, disturbance or inconvenience that they feel the cats are creating and expect the SPCA to clear them.
The SPCA would like to help. However, the role of the SPCA is to care for abused, injured and sick-animals. We have about 700 animals monthly to deal with which includes veterinary treatment, quarantine, vaccination, sterilisation, rehoming via our adoption service and euthanasia.
The SPCA will collect any animal which is hurt or rescue any animal in distress, but does not have the additional resources to clear animals away for members of the public who are being inconvenienced. |
