Caring for animals

The inspiration for this project came from not just the need to do the project, to get it over with as some would expect, it was actually for my love for animals. From young I've really enjoy looking after them and just being around them. I find it really calming
I went down to the SPCA in centurion from the 19- 22 August 2026. I helped out with tasks all over, from cleaning out the cages to playing with the kittens and puppies. It was so fun and it was really fun and a great learning experience.
I learnt that there are actually a lot more abandoned animals than I first thought, the animals are in small cages and don't get much time out. It was actually quite sad, the smaller dogs actually cry when you leave them but the older dogs don't even give a reaction. They are used to the abandonment already. It broke my heart
