Polo was dropped off at the Bird and Exotic Animal Hospital on Onderstepoort vet campus by a good Samaritan; he’d been picked up off the road after being hit by a car.

I was living in a flat in the suburbs and had a kitten named Fabiani; this little guy regularly took himself downstairs to greet a neighbour’s cat, Magita. The two of them were the absolute best of friends. In time, Magita moved into my place and we all relocated together to a farm in Rondeberg, near Cape Town. ...read more

Benji comes home

16th Jun, 2017
What a sad day May the 14th 2017 was. Whilst dropping my daughter and her friends off at the FNB Stadium for the Justin Bieber Concert, I spotted a dead dog lying right in the middle of Nasrec Road, Johannesburg, between the two lanes. I stopped and gently put his body on the pavement.
