Canine Distemper: A Deadly Virus You Can Prevent"

Canine Distemper is a highly contagious and often fatal virus that affects your dog’s respiratory, gastrointestinal, and nervous systems.

Symptoms include:

• Fever, coughing, eye/nose discharge

• Vomiting and diarrhoea

• Seizures or twitching

• Thickened paw pads ("hard pad disease")

How it spreads:
Through airborne droplets, shared bowls, or direct contact with infected animals.

Good news? It’s preventable.
The distemper vaccine is safe and effective. Puppies should start vaccines at 6–8 weeks and continue through their first year with regular boosters.

PROTECT YOUR BEST FRIEND—VACCINATE ON TIME.

🐾 THANK YOU, VETSERV, FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT! ❤️

At John Moore Animal Welfare, we are incredibly grateful for organisations like Vetserv who continue to stand behind our work and the animals and families we serve.

They generously put together a box filled with much-needed veterinary and clinic supplies for our community clinic. 🐶🐱

Their donation includes:

🧴 Bioscrub 5L
🐱 Cats Best litter
🧤 14 boxes of Supercare nitrile gloves
🐕 NexGard Spectra
🐾 Milbemax
🩹 Leukoplast remover
🦟 Frontline spray
🦴 Various treats

These may seem like simple items, but to a small community animal welfare organisation, **every single donation makes a real difference**. It helps us keep our operating costs down and allows us to direct more of the funds we raise towards sterilisations, vaccinations and essential veterinary care for animals in under-resourced communities.

But beyond the value of the products themselves, we want to say **THANK YOU for your loyalty and continued support of JMAW.** ❤️

Your ongoing willingness to assist us reminds us that we are not doing this work alone. Your support helps us continue showing up every Wednesday for the animals and families who need us most.

**Vetserv, thank you for believing in what we do, for standing alongside us, and for continuing to be part of the JMAW journey.** 🐾

We are truly grateful. ❤️

💛 "We want to do the right thing… we just can't afford it."

This is Samantha.

She is a much-loved family cat whose owners understand the importance of sterilisation. They don't want unwanted kittens. They want Samantha to live a healthier, safer life.

But like so many families facing financial hardship, they simply cannot afford the full cost of her sterilisation.

For just R500, you can change Samantha's future.

Your sponsorship will help:
🐾 Prevent unwanted litters.
🐾 Reduce the risk of life-threatening infections and certain cancers.
🐾 Stop the cycle of unwanted kittens entering already overcrowded communities.
🐾 Support responsible pet owners who are trying to do the right thing.

Every sponsored sterilisation prevents suffering before it starts. It is one of the most compassionate gifts you can give.

Will you be Samantha's hero?

Sponsor Samantha's sterilisation today for only R500.

Today is **World Homeless Animals Day**. 💔🐾

Every homeless dog or cat you see was once someone's responsibility.

In South Africa, an estimated **4.05 million dogs and cats are homeless**. Around **3.4 million survive on our streets**, while approximately **650,000 are cared for in shelters** already stretched beyond their limits.

These animals face hunger, disease, injury, abuse and the constant struggle to survive. But homelessness doesn't begin on the streets—it begins when we fail to prevent unwanted litters.

At **John Moore Animal Welfare**, we believe the most compassionate solution is also the simplest: **sterilise before another litter is born.**

Every pet sterilised means:
🐾 Fewer unwanted puppies and kittens.
🐾 Less suffering.
🐾 Fewer animals abandoned.
🐾 Healthier pets and safer communities.

We cannot rescue our way out of this crisis, but together we can **prevent** it.

Please be part of the solution:
❤️ Sterilise your pets.
❤️ Encourage others to do the same.
❤️ Sponsor a sterilisation for a family who cannot afford one.
❤️ Support organisations working to break the cycle of pet homelessness.

Because every animal deserves more than life on the streets. Every animal deserves a safe home, a full belly, and someone to love them.

🐾❤️ REMEMBER REX? OUR HANDSOME NKQUBELA BOY ❤️🐾

Who remembers Rex? Our gorgeous boy from Nkqubela who stole our hearts. 🥹❤️

Rex came to our clinic to be sterilized in January. But during his examination, our vet discovered something we hadn't expected — Transmissible Venereal Tumour (TVT).

Thanks to the incredible generosity of a kind private donor, Rex was able to receive the chemotherapy he needed. 🙏❤️

And today, we have some wonderful news…

🎉 Rex has completed his final chemotherapy treatment! 🎉

This brave boy handled his treatment like an absolute champ. 🥰 He has shown us once again why early veterinary intervention, sterilization and the generosity of people who care can make such an enormous difference.

🩺 WHAT IS TVT?

Transmissible Venereal Tumour (TVT) is a contagious cancer that primarily affects free-roaming, unsterilized dogs.

It can spread through:
🐾 Mating
🐾 Licking or sniffing affected areas
🐾 Direct contact with tumour tissue, including around the nose, mouth or skin

🚨 WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK FOR?

• Bleeding or swelling around the ge****ls
• Visible growths around the ge****ls, mouth, nose or eyes
• Weight loss or weakness in more advanced cases

❤️ THE GOOD NEWS?

TVT is treatable. Rex is living proof.

But even better — TVT is largely preventable through sterilization and responsible pet ownership.

🐶 WHAT CAN YOU DO?

❤️ Sterilize your pets
🏡 Don't allow dogs to roam freely
👀 Check your pets regularly
🩺 Seek veterinary attention immediately if you notice an unusual growth or bleeding
🐕 Help prevent unwanted litters and the growing population of free-roaming dogs

Rex's story is a reminder that sterilization doesn't just prevent puppies and kittens — it can prevent suffering and save lives.

And to the wonderful donor who made Rex's chemotherapy possible…

Thank you. ❤️

You didn't just sponsor treatment.
You gave Rex another chance at life. 🐾

From a Nkqubela boy who simply arrived for a sterilization… to a brave little survivor who has now completed his cancer treatment.

Go, Rex! We are so incredibly proud of you! 🐾❤️

TAIL DOCKING IS ILLEGAL

The cut goes through many highly sensitive nerves in the skin, cartilage, and bone. As of June 1, 2008, it became illegal for any person to dock a tail.
The main reasons for this are that tail cutting causes severe pain and stress to young puppies and dogs.
Even small dogs feel pain, as they have a fully developed nervous system.
Tail cutting results in serious complications, such as bleeding, infection and even the death of the puppy.
There can also be complications later in life, such as spinal damage,
back and leg problems, and general pain.
Tail cutting does not provide any benefit to puppies, and dogs need their tails for balance and body language.

Anyone who is caught tail docking/cutting, unless for justifiable medical reasons, will be liable for prosecution under the Animal Protection Act no 71 of 1962.

Some believe that tail docking prevents rabies and back injuries, increases speed in the dog and also increases aggression. THIS IS A LIE. IT DOES NOT!

You can help to stop tail docking:
* Do not buy puppies without tails.
* Insist that the person who sells or gives you a dog does not cut tails.
* Encourage your dog club or community to stop advocating tail docking.
* Report anyone cutting tails to the SPCA.

🌸 **WOMEN’S MONTH: SPONSOR A SPAY** 🌸
**Because every female deserves protection.**

This Women’s Month, we celebrate women — their strength, resilience and the difference they make in their families and communities.

At JMAW, we’re asking you to extend that spirit of care to the vulnerable female dogs and cats in our community. 🐾💗

For many, litter after litter is their reality. Their bodies carry the burden of repeated pregnancies — often in homes where owners are already struggling just to put food on the table.

**But YOU can change that story.**

For just **R500**, you can sponsor the sterilisation of a female dog or cat whose owner cannot afford the procedure.

One spay means:
🌸 No more unwanted litters
🌸 Less risk of certain reproductive diseases
🌸 Fewer puppies and kittens born into hardship
🌸 One healthier, safer female
🌸 A lasting difference — long after Women’s Month is over

**R500. One spay. One life changed.** ❤️

This August, honour a woman who has made a difference in your life — your mother, daughter, sister, grandmother, friend or someone you miss dearly — by sponsoring a spay in her name.

🌷 **Let her legacy of love protect another female.**

✨ **NEW: As a thank you to our sponsors, each donor will have the opportunity to have their business tagged in our official JMAW thank-you post on social media, giving your support meaningful visibility while helping us celebrate your kindness.** ✨

Will you help us give as many girls as possible a healthier future this Women’s Month?

**SPONSOR A SPAY | R500** 🐾

Every sponsorship matters. Every sterilisation prevents suffering. Every act of kindness creates change.
