KSPCA Mombasa Faces Relocation After Lease Termination by Bamburi Cement
The Kenya Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (KSPCA) in Mombasa is facing an urgent relocation after Bamburi Cement terminated its lease agreement for the facility’s current premises. The development has raised concerns over the welfare of animals housed at the centre, with officials scrambling to identify an alternative site to continue operations without disruption.
KSPCA Mombasa has been operating at the Bamburi Cement-owned property for several years, providing shelter, medical care, and rehabilitation services for rescued animals. The sudden termination of the lease has left the organization seeking temporary arrangements to ensure that the animals receive uninterrupted care. Management emphasized that securing a suitable relocation site is a top priority, with plans to engage both the county government and private partners to facilitate the move.
Animal welfare advocates and community members have expressed concern about the potential impact on the centre’s animals, urging swift action from both KSPCA and authorities. Meanwhile, KSPCA officials have reassured the public that they are exploring multiple options to relocate safely while continuing essential veterinary and rescue services. The organization called for support from volunteers, donors, and local residents to ensure the welfare of the animals is maintained during the transition period.
