💙 Imagine how much more we could do... if every one of our followers donated just $1 a month! 🐾

Just $1. That's less than the cost of a snack, but when hundreds of animal lovers each give a dollar, it adds up to something HUGE.

That $1 could help us:
🐾 Spay and neuter more dogs and cats
🐾 Help animals who are sick, injured, or in need
🐾 Provide vaccines and basic medical care
🐾 Support our humane education efforts
🐾 Reach more communities with responsible pet ownership information
🐾 Give more animals a chance at a better life

We don't need everyone to give a lot.

We just need a lot of people to give a little. ❤️

Imagine the difference we could make together.

🐾 $1 a month. One small gift. A BIG impact.

Will you be one of our $1 Animal Warriors? ❤️🐶🐱

Hi, Steven Barrow...

We haven't forgotten about you.

You may have hoped that everyone would forget what happened to Buddy. We haven't.

We remember Buddy. We remember what he endured. And we will continue to speak up for animals who cannot speak for themselves.

You haven't been forgotten. And neither has Buddy. 🐾

Neem: A Natural Alternative to Chemical Flea Treatments

Neem offers a safer, eco-friendly alternative to traditional flea treatments:

Repels Fleas: Neem oil disrupts the hormonal system of fleas, preventing them from feeding and reproducing.

Soothes Skin: Its anti-inflammatory properties help calm itchy, irritated skin caused by flea bites.

Safe for Pets: Neem is gentle and free of harmful chemicals, making it an excellent choice for pets with sensitive skin.

How to Use Neem for Flea Prevention
Neem Oil Spray: Mix a few drops of neem oil with water and lightly spray your pet’s coat, avoiding the face and eyes.

Neem Shampoo: Use a natural neem-based shampoo during bath time to kill fleas and soothe irritated skin aw. Be aware that cats are sensitive the essential oils. Check the shampoo before using.

Neem for the Home: Sprinkle neem leaf powder on carpets or bedding, leave it for a few hours, and vacuum thoroughly. This is especially important in sprinkling the powder in pet's bedding and carpet where your pet sleeps.

**********************************************************************************

You can make homemade neem-infused oil by simmering fresh neem leaves with a carrier oil like coconut or olive oil. Note that true commercial neem oil is cold-pressed from neem seeds, but this leaf-infused version works well for skin, hair, and garden use.

What You Need
• Fresh neem leaves (about 1 cup or 150g), washed and thoroughly dried
• Carrier oil (3 cups of coconut oil, olive oil, or almond oil)
• Blender or grinder
• Heavy-bottomed pan
• Fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth
• Clean glass jar or bottle for storage

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Clean and Dry the Leaves: Pluck the fresh neem leaves from the stems and wash them thoroughly to remove dirt. Pat or air-dry them completely on a clean towel so there is no residual water.

2. Blend the Mixture: Place the dry leaves into a blender. Add a small amount of your carrier oil to help break down the leaves, then blend until it forms a smooth, dark green paste.

3. Combine with Oil: Pour the remaining carrier oil and the blended neem paste into a heavy-bottomed pan.

4. Simmer on Low Heat: Cook the mixture over a low or medium-low flame for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir continuously so it does not burn or stick to the bottom of the pan. You will know it is ready when the bubbling noise subsides, the leaves look crisp or faded, and the oil turns a deep green color.

5. Cool and Strain: Remove the pan from the heat and let the oil cool down completely. Pour the oil through a fine mesh sieve or a clean muslin/cheesecloth, pressing down to extract all the liquid.

6. Store Properly: Transfer your strained oil into a clean, dry glass jar. Keep it in a cool, dark place to maintain its potency

Animals have Voices if we listen!


Teaching children that animals have voices and feelings, if we listen, is a core principle of the PAWS for Education Program.

Beginning this October, trained volunteers will be promoting Responsible Pet Care to students in and around the Corozal District. By educating our children, we can raise a generation of caring and responsible pet owners.

If you are interested in volunteering, reach out to [email protected] Attention: Nancy
You may donate via Atlantic Bank or PayPal to support the program!

🐾 Simple Ways to Keep Your Pet Dry in the Rain

1. Use a piece of zinc roofing
Put a sheet of zinc over an area of the yard to create a simple roof. Angle it slightly so rainwater runs off instead of pooling.

2. Raise their sleeping area off the ground
A wooden pallet, sturdy boards, or a homemade platform can keep your dog or cat out of puddles and mud. Raised flooring is specifically recommended for outdoor dog shelters.

3. Make a simple dog house
It doesn't have to be beautiful! A few pieces of scrap wood and a piece of zinc can make a perfectly good shelter. Make sure your dog can stand up, turn around and lie down comfortably.

4. Use a plastic barrel carefully
A large, clean plastic barrel can provide temporary protection from rain, but make sure there are no sharp edges and that there is plenty of ventilation. Don't leave it sitting directly on wet ground.

5. Turn a covered porch into a pet shelter
Even a corner of a veranda can work. Move your pet's bed, blanket or sleeping box underneath where rain can't blow in.

6. Use a sturdy table or bench
For a quick solution, place a waterproof cover or zinc roof over a sturdy table or bench. This creates a dry space underneath.

7. Give cats a dry hiding place
A covered box, kennel, carrier, or small wooden shelter can give outdoor cats somewhere to escape the rain. Put it somewhere raised and protected from wind-driven rain.

8. Keep bedding OFF the ground
Wet blankets are worse than no blanket. Use a raised bed and replace anything that becomes soaked. The shelter itself should stay dry.

9. Check the drainage
Don't put a shelter in the lowest part of the yard. Even the best roof won't help if your pet is standing in a puddle. Good drainage is particularly important during Belize's heavy rains.

10. When the weather gets really bad—bring them inside.
During tropical storms, hurricanes or severe weather, pets should be brought indoors. If it's not safe for you outside, it's not safe for your pet either.

❤️ Remember

Your pet doesn't need an expensive house.

They need a place that is:

✔️ Dry
✔️ Raised off the ground
✔️ Protected from rain and wind
✔️ Big enough to move around comfortably
✔️ Well ventilated
✔️ Clean and free of sharp edges
✔️ Available at all times, not just when someone remembers it's going to rain

And don't forget fresh, clean drinking water. Rainwater running through dirty yards, puddles and containers isn't a substitute for clean water.

A little scrap wood, a piece of zinc and a bit of creativity can make the difference between a pet spending the night cold and wet—or safe and dry. 🐾❤️

A kind family is looking for help. CAWA is not a rescue and our fosters are full. (Diane)

🐾❤️ YOU DON’T HAVE TO HAVE MONEY TO HELP A STRAY.

We know times are tough. But helping animals isn't always about writing a check. Sometimes, the smallest acts of kindness can make a BIG difference.

Here are some FREE ways you can help a stray dog or cat:

💧 PUT OUT FRESH WATER
Especially in Belize's heat, a bowl of clean water can literally save a life. Change it often and keep it in a shady spot.

🍚 SHARE A LITTLE FOOD
If you have some safe leftovers or extra pet food, sharing a meal with a hungry animal can make their day.

🩷 GIVE THEM SOME KINDNESS
A gentle voice, a little attention, and a kind touch can mean the world to an animal who may have never experienced kindness.

📸 TAKE A PHOTO & SHARE IT
See a stray that looks lost or abandoned? Take a clear photo and post it in local community groups. Someone may recognize them—or someone may be looking for a new family member.

🏠 CHECK FOR AN OWNER
Not every animal wandering the streets is homeless. Ask around. Check with neighbors. Sometimes a "stray" is someone's missing pet.

🚗 SLOW DOWN
Stray animals are everywhere. Watch for them on roads and give them a little extra space. You could save a life.

🗣️ EDUCATE YOUR NEIGHBORS
Talk about spaying and neutering. Encourage responsible pet ownership. Remind people that dumping unwanted puppies and kittens is NOT a solution.

🐕 HELP AN ANIMAL GET HOME
If you see someone dumping an animal, speak up. If it's safe, document what happened and report it to the appropriate authorities.

📢 SHARE ANIMAL-WELFARE POSTS
That "share" button costs you absolutely nothing—and it can help an animal find food, medical care, a foster, or a forever home.

❤️ BE THEIR VOICE.
You don't have to rescue every animal. You don't have to have a big bank account. You don't even have to be an animal expert.

Sometimes, helping simply means stopping long enough to care.

🐾 Kindness is free. Use it generously.

🙏🐾 WHAT DOES OUR FAITH TEACH US ABOUT HOW WE TREAT ANIMALS?

Our animals are not here to serve us, to be neglected, or to suffer because we have failed them. They are living, breathing creatures entrusted to our care.

Scripture reminds us that “a righteous person cares for the needs of their animal.” — Proverbs 12:10

Think about that.

Caring for an animal means more than putting food in a bowl when we remember. It means providing clean water, shelter from the heat and rain, proper food, medical care, protection, and kindness.

It means not beating them, not abandoning them, not leaving them chained or starving, and not treating them as if their lives don't matter.

If we believe that God created all living creatures, then caring for the animals He placed in our lives is part of being good stewards of His creation.
