Lost Souls Animal Rescue KZN

Lost Souls Animal Rescue KZN Rescuing abused, stray and abandoned domestic animals. There have even been times when she risked her own safety to uplift these animals.

Tracy McLelland Smit, founder of Lost Souls Animal Rescue KZN, began her rescue work in KwaZulu-Natal in April 2016. She would respond to calls about stray, abused, and neglected puppies, adolescent and adult dogs—some in severely poor condition—offering help whenever possible, depending on available resources. Rescued animals are taken directly to the vet for treatment. Once healthy, they are pla

ced in foster care. Adult dogs with traumatic pasts are kenneled and rehabilitated until they’re ready for their forever homes. Lost Souls relies on public support in the form of cash donations and goods that can be auctioned or sold to help cover ever-growing expenses—vet bills, boarding fees, food, supplements, transport, vehicle repairs, and more. To date, Lost Souls has admitted over 6,000 neglected, abused, and abandoned animals.

Morning everyone. I got a call yesterday about a mommy dog who had a nasty wound and 9 x 4 week pups that needed help.

All rescues are unbelievably overwhelmed. It just never ends. So I took a leap of faith and contacted my current foster Danielle Chapman who is looking after the other babies and she said they can assist Mom and her pups for 1 week.

So please share like crazy for another foster.
Currently in Hillcrest KwaZulu-Natal.

😭😭 An Urgent Plea for Chasey Boy 😭😭

Friends, today we are appealing to 20 special souls to help cover Chasey Boy’s vet bill of R3,800 to sponsor R190 each 🙏.

In just the past week, our sweet boy has gone backwards… he looks like an old man 😢. His skin has flared up, causing a painful ear infection, and he desperately needs this treatment to ease his suffering.

I have the blood test results and full vet report, and I will gladly share them with anyone who wishes. But for now, I come to you on bended knees, asking for sponsors to help us settle his bill today.

✨ Every contribution, no matter the size, brings us closer to giving Chasey Boy relief and hope. ✨

Our Story

Tracy Mclelland Smit, the founder of Lost Souls, started her rescues in KZN in April 2016. She would get calls of stray, abused and neglected puppies, dogs, kittens and cats, some in really bad condition, and respond to help them. There are times where she put her own life at risk to uplift these animals. Rescued animals are taken directly to the Hillcrest Vet Hospital to get treated. Once healthy they are then fostered until ready to go to a forever home. She is now a registered NPC. Lost Souls rely on the public for cash donations, goods to be auctioned or sold to raise funds to assist with the ever increasing vet bills, which to date is sitting at close to R70 000. To date Lost Souls have admitted over 1 500 neglected abused and abandoned animals.
