A sanctuary in Cape Town meant to provide refuge for distressed animals turned into a location of neglect and overcrowding. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) rescued 31 dogs in dire need of medical intervention. The SPCA issued a stern warning to the facility, and with the help of the Cape Animal Welfare Forum, several organizations offered to accommodate the animals. This incident highlights the importance of collaboration in tackling animal welfare issues and the responsibility animal welfare organizations have to ensure sanctuaries remain places of rehabilitation and second chances.
