Cause 4 Paws is a Non Profit Animal welfare organisation. Our main focus is sterilization and animal vaccination & outreach programs throughout Gauteng.
Cause 4 Paws started after its founding members found a gap in the welfare industry in Alberton and the southern suburbs and townships of Johannesburg, the management Committee of Cause 4 Paws felt that a greater focus of sterilisation and vaccination programmes were needed, as well as educational programmes on animal care.
At present the focus of Cause 4 Paws is outreach into township communities & suburbs where a need is identified.
As a management committee, we have seen both sides of the animal welfare industry. Having adopted animals ourselves, having seen what happens when animals fall through the cracks of the welfare system and what happens to those who do not get adopted we speak from our hearts when we say we are personally invested. Having adopted, fallen in love, and fought for our four legged companions, Cause 4 Paws was born out of a passion and love for animals. We truly believe in the beautiful words spoken by Mahatma Gandhi “Be the change you want to see in the world”. We want to be part of the positive change in animal welfare in South Africa.
To sterilise and vaccinate as many domestic dogs and cats as possible! We aim to educate the general public on the importance of sterilising their pets and keeping up to date with their pets’ yearly vaccinations. We are passionate about educating and empowering our youth on animal care and eradicating the many dangerous old wives tales and fallacies that we find endangering our furry and feathered friends!
