Animal Allies, a registered non-profit organization (NPO 095505) founded in January 2010, initially focused on trap-neuter-release (TNR) and vaccination of feral cats in Gauteng to prevent disease and overpopulation. Responding to community requests, they expanded to provide free sterilization and veterinary care in poorer areas, launching their first campaign in September 2011, treating nearly 600 animals. Their efforts to alleviate suffering through education and sterilization led to further campaigns, including the ongoing Honeydew Squatter Camp project since 2013, and expansions to the Eskom Squatter Camp and Katlehong. To date, Animal Allies has sterilized, vaccinated, and dewormed over 12,000 animals, significantly reducing overpopulation and educating pet guardians about animal care.

We are a non-profit, no-kill cat welfare organisation. We have been operating since 2000. We do not receive any government funding and rely on the generosity of animal lovers throughout Gauteng for support and donations. We work tirelessly through a network of volunteers and fosterers to improve the lives of hundreds of unwanted and abandoned cats and kittens by finding them loving homes.
