Because every tail deserves a happy ending…

The Nelly Story – I Found the Perfect Home

Possibly the best part of everything we do at the SPCA is our Happy Homings.

To see the joy on the faces of the new families and the sheer delight of the animals they adopt makes all the blood, sweat and tears worthwhile. 

Many of the animals who come through our doors have been rescued from situations of such diabolical cruelty it is hard to imagine.

Others have endured traumas such as abandonment, bereavement from a deceased and beloved owner, getting lost and finding themselves stray… their hearts beat as ours and they feel emotions just as deeply. 

Reading progress

After the initial two weeks in clinical isolation, Nelly moved to pre-adoption quarantine. In pre-adoption, she finished her treatment, was sterilised and vaccinated. This is the standard protocol for all animals before they move to adoptions for rehoming.

Successful Adoption

One family ticked all boxes. An engineer from Claremont, Anthony, his wife and their two daughters were ideally matched to Nelly’s needs and personality. 

Nelly makes her surprise appearance

If ever there was a winning contestant for an extreme make-over, Nelly wins hands down. She recently made her surprise appearance at the Cape of Good Hope SPCA Golf day were we had the chance to chat to Anthony in person. You can view the latest visual update on Nelly and hear what Anthony has to say in the video below.

In this final episode of The Nelly Story, Nelly the Rescue Dog comes full circle and finds her forever home. Staff at the Cape of Good Hope SPCA experience heartbreak twice a day multiplied by the number of animals that arrive, and again for every time, we have to say goodbye. #TheNellyStory was dedicated to the heroes who nursed her back to health, restored her dignity and mended her heart.
