About Co-sanc

 

CO –SANC is not a new charity, but is a new animal shelter and adoption centre relieving existing charities like Friends of the Cat, Friends of Rescued Animals, Sterischeme, Four Paws, ARRF, Angels rescue, Paw Power,Paws-R-Us, Pawsome and various organizations working with ferals, of excess animals.

 

This is a unique concept as it allows us to be both pro – life and scientifically run.

 

We do not take animals directly from the public, all our residents are rescue cases that animal charities have taken to our associated veterinary clinic – Bluebush Animal Clinic.

 

We face the huge challenge therefore, of turning the saddest, sickest and most severely injured rescue cases into lovable healthy adoptable pets.

 

Pro – life charities are often criticized for overcrowding and spreading disease.

At CO – SANC we take every measure possible to avoid this.

 

We keep mostly cats as they are easiest to house properly although we have homed some dogs and other animals already.

Every baby animal is hand raised to over a kg. in weight and we do not hand out tiny unsterilized and unvaccinated babies.

All our cats and kittens get vaccinated, de-wormed, treated for external parasites, micro chipped, sterilized and tested for FIV, FeLV.and suspicious cases screened for FIP

They also get routine urine and faecal tests.

They are quarantined for a week before offered for adoption.

All sick animals are strictly quarantined and treated.

We will always take back any CO – SANC animal, even if it is ten years later: we consider this our responsibility as we saved their lives in the first place.

For all of this we only ask a R600.00 adoption fee.
