Welcome to Fora a Pro-life Animal Rescue Shelter

FORA is a haven for dogs and cats and has been officially registered as a non  profit organization (NPO 029775) in August 2003.

Our Mission Statement is to rescue as many unwanted, homeless & ill treated "dogs & cats",
and to care for them at our shelter, then to re-home every animal in our care to loving
homes and for the less fortunate to ensure that they have a home for life at FORA.

Our Goals are

• To provide the very best for all the animals in our care, ensuring they receive food, shelter,medication, sterilization and above all to offer all our animals the chance of a new life in a loving home, and if they cannot find a home, that they are guaranteed a home at the shelter for the rest of their days.
• To purchase the property that we are currently renting, so that we have a permanent home for all our animals.
• To provide affordable sterilization for animals.
• To continue to develop our educational programs regarding responsible pet ownership with the local schools and the public.

We have opened our doors to all Schools, Universities and Corporate Business for community service initiatives and to achieve a working relationship with the community. We advise them that they feel welcome to visit the shelter, and share with us the problems encountered in their neighbourhood/township with all the Domestic Animals, so that we can assist and educate people to treat these GOD GIVEN CREATURES, that have no voice, with the respect and honour which they deserve.

PLEASE NOTE:

The rapid growth of FRIENDS OF RESCUED ANIMALS (FORA), Krugersdorp animal shelter now in its 9th year of operation, has necessitated remedial restructuring of the shelter operations.  The shelter has become well-known in recent years resulting in a dramatic increase in intake of dogs and cats,  while the funding received and raised  has increased at a much slower rate, making the current operational structure unsustainable.

A team of animal devotees led by long-time FORA supporter and donor, Anneke van Zyl and FORA stalwart Gaynor Lawrence, are addressing all systems and procedures and working on a multi faceted vision to develop a strategy for the future, with the guidance of appropriate experts.  FORA will continue to appeal for and embrace all community involvement.

FORA has 800 dogs and 200 cats looking to be adopted into good homes, and welcomes support of any kind - money, time, skills.
