28 January 2026 - PLEASE NOTE!
Our Shelter is currently filled beyond capacity and we are forced to turn new animals away until further notice.
About Us
Wollies Animal Shelter started in 2003 from humble beginnings. The initial purpose Wollies had was to sterilize as many animals as possible.
It did not end with this sterilization project. We started helping abandoned, neglected and abused animals.
We subsequently became registered as a non-profit, pro-life organisation that does not receive any government funding. Every cat and dog stay with us until they find their forever homes. Life is what we offer them and we will never take these rights away.
We STRONGLY believe that if people are educated on the benefits of sterilization and if these costs were more affordable, then there would be fewer abandoned, abused and homeless animals.

We encourage and welcome you to make use of this service. Drop off time is between 06h00 and 06h45 and the drop off place is at Wollies Animal Shelter. We place a name tag on your furry friend in the morning and give you a form to complete (this form will accompany your animal to the vet)

Adopt, don't Shop
Our Heartbreaking Figures for 2025
We have a daily influx of unwanted pets from puppies to small, medium and large breed dogs as well as kittens and cats that are available for adoption and looking for a forever home just like yours. Once you meet your pet sole mate, life becomes a little lighter with all the love and kisses they bestow on you. These numbers are just of new intakes versus adoptions for the year to date to give potential forever homes an idea of the huge need for forever homes. If you think you have a place in your heart and your home to adopt one of our fur babies, please make the time to come and visit us.
