When adopting an animal make sure it is the right fit for your family. Make sure the animal fits your lifestyle and isn’t – for example – too energetic for you or too demanding. Cross breeds are generally more hardy and durable pets. The more intelligent an animal, the more training it needs. Adopting is better than shopping, as these animals often have a time limit on their life. When adopting an animal you ensure its vaccinations are up to date, it is sterilised and has a good temperament. For more information or advice, please contact Grahamstown SPCA:
