We\u2019ve issued the owner with written warnings and they failed to comply. They became very hostile towards our inspectors when they visited the property. So, we are here today to come and remove these dogs and to make sure they are being kept in a place of safety with a warm place to sleep. We cannot leave them in these terrible conditions,\u201d said the SPCA\u2019s chief inspector Jaco Pieterse last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cToday, more than ever, no animal should be left without shelter in such harsh weather conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-warnings\">Warnings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite previous visits and clear warnings to the owner to improve the conditions, the SPCA\u2019s call for compliance have been ignored. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the SPCA visited the property last week, the owner still had to look for the dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a live online feed, the inspectors searched with the owner for the dogs, walking through narrow alleys and in the streets of Joe Slovo in the cold and rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The owner questioned why her dogs had to be removed as there are other dogs in the area who are living in the same conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pieterse says one can clearly see the lack of care as the owner had no idea where the dogs were roaming around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Thursday 11 July, the teams managed to locate one of the dogs, now safely in the care of the Cape Of Good Hope SPCA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They have since taken the owner into custody <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pieterse says their inspectors had been dealing with a lot of cases the last few days with flooding in Cape Town. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve rescued several animals.

Donations of blankets and animal food are urgently needed to aid in the relief efforts, particularly in the hardest-hit areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact the Inspectorate directly on 021 700 4158\/9 or
