Farming is more than a profession—it's a calling.

It takes resilience to face the challenges of every season, patience to nurture every crop and every animal, and unwavering dedication to keep going, no matter what tomorrow may bring.

Farmers don't just raise livestock or grow food. They care for the land, protect their herds, and provide for families and communities across the country.

At Morvet, we are honoured to stand alongside the men and women whose hard work begins before sunrise and often ends long after sunset.

Thank you for your commitment, your perseverance, and your passion. Your hands help feed a nation, and your heart keeps the countryside alive.

Dog parents will understand this one...

When your children become teenagers, conversations can get a little shorter, bedroom doors stay closed a little longer, and suddenly you're not the most interesting person in the house.

But your dog?

They'll still greet you like you've been gone for years, even if you only stepped outside to fetch the washing!

Every wagging tail, happy dance, and excited welcome home is a reminder of the unconditional love dogs give so freely.

So here's to our loyal companions who never stop making us feel like the most important person in the world.

Who else gets the biggest welcome home from their dog? Tell us your dog's name in the comments!

If your pet had a regular 9-to-5 job, what would they get fired for on their very first day?

Here are a few ideas:

• Dog – Greeting every customer like a long-lost best friend.
• Cat – Refusing to attend meetings unless they felt like it.
• Labrador – Eating everyone's lunch.
• Beagle – Leaving work to follow an interesting smell.
• Orange cat – Knocking everything off the manager's desk.

Now it's your turn...

What would YOUR pet get fired for on Day One? We'd love to read your funniest answers!

The cost of Lumpy Skin Disease is more than skin deep.

An outbreak can affect every part of your farming operation.

Lumpy Skin Disease may lead to:

• Sharp drops in milk production.
• Loss of body condition.
• Abortions.
• Permanent skin damage affecting hide quality.
• Reduced fertility and breeding performance.
• Increased veterinary costs and production losses.

The financial impact of an outbreak can far exceed the cost of a vaccination programme.

Protect your cattle. Protect your livelihood.

Early recognition can help limit the impact on your herd.

Watch for:

• High fever before skin lesions appear.
• Firm, round skin nodules across the body.
• Loss of appetite.
• Weight loss.
• Sudden drops in milk production.
• Pregnant cows aborting.

Lumpy Skin Disease is a notifiable disease, meaning suspected cases should be reported to the relevant animal health authorities. Prompt veterinary advice and appropriate herd management are essential to help contain its spread.

Protect your herd with vaccination, effective insect control, and early action.

If you suspect Lumpy Skin Disease, contact the Morvet team immediately. For more information on this disease please contact our resident Vet, Dr Sakkie on

What should farmers be doing now?

Lumpy Skin Disease spreads mainly through biting insects, making preparation before spring essential.

Here's your August checklist:

• Vaccinate susceptible cattle.
• Implement an insect control programme.
• Reduce standing water where mosquitoes breed.
• Inspect cattle regularly for early signs of illness.
• Report suspected cases immediately.

Taking action now can reduce the risk of serious production losses later in the season.

A healthy herd starts with good planning.

Spring brings warmer weather—and with it, an increase in flies, mosquitoes, and ticks that can spread Lumpy Skin Disease (L*D).

The best time to protect your herd is before the risk season begins.

✔ Review your vaccination programme.
✔ Speak to your veterinarian about the best time to vaccinate.
✔ Start planning your insect control programme now.

Lumpy Skin Disease can have a significant impact on productivity, but prevention is far more effective than dealing with an outbreak.

Protect your herd before the insects become active.

Farming isn't just about today—it's about tomorrow.

For generations, farming families have passed down more than land and livestock. They pass down values of hard work, resilience, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to feeding their communities.

Every early morning, every difficult season, and every success becomes part of a legacy that grows stronger with each generation.

Behind every healthy herd and every productive farm is a family dedicated to caring for their animals, stewarding the land, and ensuring there is food on our tables.

At Morvet, we are proud to support the farming families whose passion, perseverance, and commitment continue to shape the future of agriculture.

Here's to the families who don't just build farms—they build a legacy that feeds the world.

If cats could write a guide to happiness, it would probably be very short...

✔ Sleep whenever you feel like it.
✔ Accept admiration as your birthright.
✔ Spend time with people... but only on your own terms.

Cats have a special talent for reminding us that life doesn't always have to be rushed. They know the value of a sunny windowsill, a cosy blanket, and a well-earned nap.

Whether your feline friend is the ruler of the household or simply allows you to live there, one thing is certain—they make life infinitely more entertaining.

Tell us... what's the funniest "I'm in charge" moment your cat has ever given you? We'd love to hear your stories (and see the photos!).

✔ Protect your pet from irritating bites.
✔ Reduce the risk of flea infestations in your home.
