Paterson Spay

Dr Debra Nossman & Rebecca Wood, VN
As you may remember in October 2009 Brothers Safaris was approached by the SPCA in Grahamstown to assist with a neutering campaign in our local community, Paterson here in the Eastern Cape, the spay day is part of an on going community project where there is a desperate need for help at all levels. Well this year on 17 September we helped with another neutering campaign in Paterson. This year we had the help of 8 vets from Arizona, USA. they gave their time and expertise for free! We used the community hall as our make shift reception area/prep area/theatre/recovery/kennels and dining room! We neutered 86 animals, so this will make a very small dent in the massively overpopulated Paterson!

Our local paper, The Grocotts Mail joined us for the day, please take a look at the article by following this link - Cats & Dogs get treated in Paterson.

Dr Peter Brothers in action, a mucher smaller patient than he is used too.....
 Brothers Safaris would just like to thank all the people for the donations, time and help but a massive thank you goes to all the vets from Arizona that made this day possible, thank you for giving up a day of your holiday to help this much needed campaign!
