Mdzananda Animal Clinic’s annual Paws on the Promenade is back!
Cape Town, South Africa (07 April 2026) – On Sunday, 12 April, Capetonians and their four-legged friends are invited to lace and leash up to support Mdzananda Animal Clinic in its eighth annual Paws on the Promenade 5 km walk!
The route runs from the Mouille Point Lighthouse towards the Sea Point pools and back, but there’s no pressure to complete the full distance. Walk as far as you like, take your time, or just come along for the morning. No dog? You’re still welcome, and if you’d like, you can even walk one of the clinic’s shelter dogs (find out more via the link below).
Entry is R50 for adults and dogs, and R25 for kids under 12. Tickets are available online or on the day from 8:30 am, with the walk starting at 9:00 am.
On the day, there’ll be coffee, food stalls, and a few extras along the promenade, but the focus is on showing up and contributing toward Khayelitsha’s animals in need.
Khayelitsha has around a million people and roughly 300,000 pets. Most of those pet owners cannot afford private vet care. Mdzananda Animal Clinic is what they have. The clinic is the only low-cost veterinary service serving the community, doing everything from sterilisations and vaccinations to emergency surgery, mostly for people who have very little to spare.
Grab your lead, lace up your sneakers, and let’s make sure every pet in Khayelitsha has a reason to wag their tail. Oh, and make sure to wear something orange!
