How the bill influences the JSPCA

The JSPCA has a running cost a month of about R700 000 which includes salaries for staff members and inspectors, fuel and maintenance on the vehicle, as well as buying food for the animals in the kennels.

If the JSPCA cannot pay the bill, it will put a stop to the outreach work they do in less-privileged areas where they do sterilisations and general checks on the animals.

It will also lead to the JSPCA being forced to retrench some of their inspectors because they won’t be able to pay their salaries. It will also reduce the JSPCA’s ability to take in strays due to a shortage of food.

The JSPCA is still in need of food for the animals, especially the cats and dogs, as this bill has affected the JSPCA’s ability to buy this food. The JSPCA also needs soaps and cleaning products to help with the daily cleaning.
