serval update

24/1/2019

 
This Serval (Leptailurus serval) was collected by the Highveld Ridge SPCA and Feral Watch TNR after he was found hiding in a pile of rubble in someone's yard.

He is healthy and of adequate weight, and as part of his rehabilitation process, has been introduced to natural prey items. He is ready to be relocated to a pre-release enclosure in a safe reserve which offers him a suitable habitat. This is where he will be slowly introduced to the area and become acclimatised to his new territory.

Once again, our thanks to Highveld Ridge SPCA and Feral Watch TNR for caring for this serval and collaborating with us.

We treat indigenous animals free of charge, relying solely on the donations and support of our community.

feisty serval

9/11/2018

 
This Serval (Leptailurus serval) was collected by the Highveld Ridge SPCA and Feral Watch TNR after he was found hiding in a pile of rubble in someone's yard. Once brought to our hospital, he was found to be severely dehydrated. Since his arrival, he is eating well and has become feistier - signs that he is feeling better. Once completely healthy and able to fend for himself, he will be released back into the wild where he belongs.

tale of two servals

28/8/2018

 
Recently Sandton SPCA confiscated two sub-adult male serval (Leptailurus serval) from a private residence in Bryanston, Johannesburg. They were being kept illegally as pets. 

We sedated them and both underwent a complete health check. They were in good health, albeit a little overweight. 

The one has already been placed into a pre-release enclosure at his release site and the other one will soon be placed on another reserve. Because they are both male, they cannot be released into the same territory.
