Valora’s remarkable journey to recovery has touched the hearts of many. Despite the odds against her, she has shown a tremendous will to survive, proving the incredible resilience of animals. ### The Importance of Animal Welfare
In a world where animals are sometimes oppressed, it is heartening to see that there are still people willing to put themselves on the line to help them. For example, in Woodstock, Cape Town, a dog was found chained and padlocked so tightly to a fence that he could barely move. Fortunately, Constable Rubashnee Naicker of the Cape Town Metropolitan Police Department, her colleagues, and the Cape of Good Hope SPCA were on hand to rescue the animal and bring the perpetrator to justice.
