Did you know diabetes affects animals as well?
And that there are 2 types of diabetes that you pet can have?

Rabies Report KwaZulu Natal, South Africa, 20 September – 07 November 2025

KwaZulu Natal
*HUMAN*
Umlazi, Ethekwini Metro

We have lost 3 people to rabies in KZN this year. This is preventable through rabies awareness and seeking prompt post exposure treatment.

The following animals have had confirmed rabies; please ensure your pets are vaccinated. It is a legal requirement due to the extreme health risk of unvaccinated pets even in walled gardens; the vaccine is readily available for free. Keep your rabies certificate safe so you can easily access it if requested.

1. Bushbuck, Hillcrest, Ethekwini Metro
2. Canine, Ezimbokodweni, Ethekwini Metro
3. Canine, KwaNyuswa, Ethekwini Metro
4. Canine, Kloof, Ethekwini Metro
5. Canine, Umlazi, Ethekwini Metro
6. Canine, Molweni, Ethekwini Metro

*********************************************************************
What to do in the event of a bite OR SCRATCH from ANY MAMMAL that could have rabies:
1. Wash any scratches or wounds with running water and soap for 10 minutes.
2. Get to a doctor or hospital for a course of 4 vaccinations. If the doctor or clinic is unsure of the treatment protocol, there is a rabies hotline for health professionals that they can call. If you have a bite or scratch with broken skin, and are previously unvaccinated, it is essential to get injections of rabies immunoglobulin (RIG) into the wound in addition to vaccine.
YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO REQUEST AN AMBULANCE IF YOU NEED TRANSPORT

Educate yourself for the health and safety of your pets. Cheap and convenient does not equal better. The South African Veterinary Council publishes monthly a list of their registered professional. Dont get caught in a scam and have your pet pay the price!

Any South Africac can ask any veterinary or para-veterinary professional to show you his/her registration certificate from the SAVC

We have a complete set with the case!

We have seen sets go for R1200 to R2500 so we have decided to test the market with an auction 💜

Do we have an opening bid of R1200?
