SA MASS ANIMAL STERILISATION TRUST

Mass Sterilisation, General Veterinary Care & Outreach Initiatives

SA.MAST is permanently located in the heart of Khayelitsha and currently responsible for the largest, area specific and goal driven mass animal sterilisation campaign in Africa.

To date, we have sterilised, vaccinated (incl. rabies) and treated for internal and external parasites over 19 000 animals in Khayelitsha, Cape Town, South Africa, the largest informal settlement in South Africa.

Our Mission: To assist informal and disadvantaged areas in their urban renewal and rehabilitation.

We achieve our mandate by addressing the causes and consequences of the over-population of diseased, stray, neglected, abused or dangerous domestic animals in specific areas via the implementation of a free, consistent, extremely focused and goal driven mass animal sterilisation, treatment and education campaign.

This, along with the provision of an animal ambulance, hospital for the sick and injured, massive kennel building and distribution programme (almost 5000 to date) and other community empowerment initiatives where it is most needed, is our contribution to the compassionate development and well-being of our Rainbow Nation.
