💔 **We Need Your Help** 💔

Hoedspruit Alley Cats is in a very difficult position, and today we're reaching out to our amazing community for help.

Over the past few weeks, we've taken in a large number of sick and vulnerable kittens that needed urgent veterinary treatment, medication, and around-the-clock care. At the same time, we've continued our sterilisation efforts because preventing unwanted litters is the only long-term solution to reducing the number of homeless cats in our area.

While we're incredibly proud of the lives we've been able to save and the cats we've prevented from adding to the growing stray population, it has come at a cost. Our veterinary account has grown to a point where we are desperately in need of funding to keep going.

Every donation, no matter how small, will go directly towards paying our outstanding veterinary bill so that we can continue helping cats and kittens that have nowhere else to turn.

If you've ever supported us by adopting, donating, sharing our posts, or cheering us on, we're asking for your help once again. Without your support, our work simply isn't possible.

🐾 If you would like to make a donation, please send us a message or use the banking details below.

Even if you're unable to donate, sharing this post could help it reach someone who can.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us and for helping us give these cats a second chance. ❤️

🐍🐾 **A Good Reminder of Why Time Matters**

A few weeks ago we treated two siblings, Eden and Jasper, after they were bitten by a cobra.

Eden arrived at Maroela Animal Hospital in a critical condition. She was struggling to breathe, her gums had turned purple, and she required immediate emergency treatment. Dr. Liesel administered two vials of polyvalent antivenom, but due to the severity of the envenomation, Eden remained comatose and her condition was still very guarded.

A huge thank you to Hoedspruit Reptile Centre, who quickly supplied an additional two vials of antivenom when we needed them most.

Later that evening, Eden's owners contacted us to say that their other dog, Jasper, had also started showing signs of a snake bite. Fortunately, Jasper's symptoms were less severe, but he also required treatment with antivenom. Once again, Hoedspruit Reptile Centre kindly provided another two vials without hesitation.

Both dogs were admitted overnight for intensive monitoring and supportive care. Dr. Jamie and Christo stayed with them throughout the night, ensuring they received the care they needed.

We're very happy to report that both Eden and Jasper recovered well and were able to go home with their family.

Snake bites are always an emergency, and the sooner treatment is started, the better the chances of a positive outcome. If you suspect your pet has been bitten by a snake, please seek veterinary attention as soon as possible.

Thank you to Eden and Jasper's owners for acting so quickly and to Hoedspruit Reptile Centre for their generosity and support. Working together made all the difference for these two dogs.

We wish Eden and Jasper a smooth recovery and hope they're back to enjoying life again very soon. 💚🐾
