    Cape Town is ramping up its mass pet sterilization campaign, targeting 1 500 domestic animals in Ravensmead, Elsies River and Bellville South between August and December.

    The project, funded by the City of Cape Town and run in partnership with the Cape Animal Welfare Forum (CAWF), has already sterilized 17 876 pets since 2013 at a cost of R8 million.

    This year, the City has allocated R850 000 to the initiative, which aims to:

    • Prevent unwanted litters
    • Reduce animal cruelty and neglect
    • Improve community health through responsible pet ownership

    ‘We’re proud of this long-standing partnership,’ said Councillor Francine Higham, Mayoral Committee Member for Community Services and Health. ‘This campaign makes a real difference for animals and people.’

    The programme, known as the Mass Animal Sterilization Project (MASP), began in 2013 with 1 800 sterilizations in Dunoon and Brown’s Farm. Since then, it has expanded to Khayelitsha, Atlantis, Wallacedene and other underserved communities.

    ‘This reduces the burden on shelters and prevents suffering,’ said Karen de Klerk, CAWF Chairperson.

    While challenges remain, including limited funding and public awareness, the programme sets a national benchmark.
