Garden Route SPCA - George

Animal cruelty must stop. No animal should suffer.

About Us

The Garden Route SPCA has deep roots, beginning as the George SPCA in 1949. For decades, volunteers and inspectors worked tirelessly across the region — from Great Brak to Oudtshoorn — rescuing animals, educating schools, and enforcing the law against cruelty. In 2000, George SPCA joined forces with Mossel Bay SPCA, creating the Garden Route SPCA we know today.

Now one of the largest SPCAs in South Africa, we protect all animals — domestic, farm, and wild — through rescue, sterilisation, veterinary care, adoptions, education, and law enforcement. Every town deserves an SPCA, because without one, there is no organisation legally mandated to step in when animals suffer.

But this work comes at a cost. It takes over R1.5 million every month to keep our doors open. Every rescue, every sterilisation, every investigation, every adoption — it’s only possible because of community support. The animals of the Garden Route need us, and we cannot be here for them, without you.
