Kitty Haven
 Kitty Haven is a rescue and rehabilitation centre for abused or injured cats or kittens. We have a no kill policy. Most of our cases originate from veterinary practices, other welfare organizations (that work in the townships and squatter-camps) or from emergency rescues.
Our mission is to provide the animals in our care with the best medical attention, dietary requirements and above all love and attention while we nurse them back to health. We ensure that all of these animals are healthy and sterilized. All of our animals are placed in suitable, loving homes. We are alleviating suffering; saving lives and ensuring that these animals cannot breed and produce more kittens.

Puppy Walking
Puppy walking has been developed as a necessary precursor to the more intensive training provided by the South African Guide Dogs Association. They cover all veterinary costs incurred, including vaccinations, de-worming and micro-shipping. Food for the pups is also sponsored.

Twilight Children
Their main aim is to reintegrate children and young adults into mainstream society by giving them skills and affirming their confidence to become valuable citizens.
However, the assistance of the community is needed in many ways, such as with the support of their pottery projects which are sold at several organic markets each month. Pottery made by the children can be bought at the Bryanston organic market on the last Saturday of the month, at Field and Study on the first Sunday of the month and at the Bruma market on the second-last Sunday of the month. They also make up orders for corporate companies.
