Presenting The Alba Collection

Created by Sandra Putter for Friends of Ferals in memory of her beloved Alba, who tragically passed at the age of 15 months.

The glass is imported from France and fired at 740°C. After 24 hours, once the pendants have cooled, they are further prepared with a diamond-tipped grinder and a diamond-tipped drill. Each unique glass pendant is then fitted with a charm that nestles against the glass. Each pendant is strung on a wax cord of the corresponding colour.

Available in various colours, with a limited supply of each:

• Cat & Moon: dark blue, black, dark green, orange, red, bright green, and white
• Paw Print and Best Friend: dark blue, light blue, red, dark green

Selling for R170-00 each. All proceeds raised from the sale of the Alba Collection necklaces will go towards our vet bills.

Should you wish to buy one or more of these uniquely beautiful necklaces, please message Charmaine at 076 333 0825 to order. EFTs should be made with your cell number as a reference.

Purchased necklaces, by arrangement, can be collected in Lonehill, Centurion, or at our shelter in Hennops River.

A huge thank you to Sandra for creating these stunning necklaces to assist us in raising funds.

2023 PAWsome Stories

As we approach the end of another successful year, may we take this opportunity to thank you for supporting the Animal Welfare Society of South Africa with your continued interest and donations.

The positive impact your support enables us to make to the lives of animals in need and those less fortunate is best illustrated through a collection of uplifting stories which make up this year’s edition of our PAWsome Stories booklet.

“The Festive Season is a time for giving and sharing, and what better way to embody the spirit of the holidays than by extending kindness to animals who need it most,” said Allan Perrins, Spokesperson for the Animal Welfare Society of South Africa.

We have a limited quantity of printed 2023 PAWsome Stories booklets available. The booklet is in high demand and available to all animal lovers for a donation to Animal Welfare Society SA via PayFast. Please reference your donation “Pawsome”.

Make ready for 2024

The 2024 Sushi and Panda Foundation rescue calendar was shot by the talented photographer Emma O’Brien and designed by Polkadot Digital.

It features 12 gorgeous animals that we’ve rescued from extremely horrific conditions and circumstances and shows them today, after they’ve been adopted and are living happily in their new homes.

We always love to shoot our rescue calendar as a reminder to everyone on what a difference they can make by adopting an animal. It’s truly life-changing. Our rescues also show everyone that they’re all unique, no two are the same, which we hope will appeal to the public to rather adopt a “one-of-a-kind dog” than buying from a breeder.

Selling for R160-00 per calendar (excluding courier fees), and 100% of the proceeds from calendar sales go back to the foundation so that we can continue our work in the two townships we service. Changing lives, one animal at a time.

To order, please WhatsApp Megan on 082 905 0277 or email megan@thesushiandpandafoundation.co.za

Cannapaw CBD Pet Oil

Formulated for pets, Cannapaw CBD Pet Oil is designed to help all pets feel more vibrant and achieve wellness, and to help with joint pain, inflammation, anxiety and so much more. The 30ml bottle contains ±600 drops.

Why we recommend it
CBD Oil is easy to use and ideal for non-area-specific issues such as anxiety, stress, insomnia, or depression. When ingested, the CBD is absorbed and digested in the stomach and spread around the whole body. The CBD Oil is most cost-effective for long-term use. Stored in an easy-to-administer dropper bottle makes it easy to calculate consistent and accurate doses, since you know exactly how much CBD is contained within each drop.

What sets it apart
Cannaco uses Broad-Spectrum CBD and not just CBD Isolate. Broad-Spectrum products contain Flavonoids, Terpenes, numerous Vitamins and Minerals, Phytonutrients, and other Cannabinoids like CBN, CBDV, THCV, CBG, CBC, THCA, CBDA. Although their content is significantly lower than CBD, they play a crucial role in achieving the entourage effect – Cannabinoids “working” in synergy, meaning that the products are much more effective.

Featured Benefits
Cannapaw CBD Pet Oil may assist with:

• Relief of inflammation, swelling and arthritis
• Pain, joints and mobility
• Digestive health and gastrointestinal discomfort
• Inhibiting cell growth in tumours/cancer
• Increasing appetite
• Support for epilepsy and seizures
• Easing sleep, stress, and anxiety (fireworks, thunder and separation anxiety)
• Skin conditions such as itching, scratching, and allergies
• Car sickness, long-distance travelling, and nausea
• Post-surgery recovery

Selling for between R325-00 and R570-00, dependent on strength. Prices exclude courier costs, and 5% on every order is donated to Sight Hound Rescue SA.

To order your Cannapaw CBD Pet Oil, contact Vicki Hiscox on 072 025 0931 or email viccanco2021@gmail.com and remember to include “Happy Tails” in your subject line.

Editor’s note: Always consult with your veterinarian if your pet seems unwell, and check with your veterinarian before giving them any medication, natural or otherwise.

Get ready for 2024!

Cat Care has put together an attractive calendar each year since 2012. This calendar has evolved over the years from an A3 strip with only one photo, to what is it now, a glorious spectacle of beautiful cats and kittens.

For the past three years, we’ve run a competition and invited our supporters to submit photos of their cats, along with a small fee. Photos for the calendar are selected from those entries and the funds raised through that and the sale of the calendar all go towards sterilising and maintaining feral colonies in Nelson Mandela Metropole and surrounding areas. This includes feeding and providing veterinary attention when necessary. We also take in kittens from feral colonies, tame them, and find good, approved homes for them. 

Selling for R130-00 each (excluding postage/courier costs for out-of-town orders). Proceeds from the sale of these calendars go towards the cats under the care of Cat Care Port Elizabeth.

To order your calendar, WhatsApp Jenny Gover on 072 434 1307.

12 Top SA artists are doing it for the dogs

After the success of their gorgeous 2021 Art Calendar, 12 of South Africa’s leading contemporary artists have once again contributed towards a calendar for Do It For The Dogs, a charity initiative that raises funds for animals in need. 

Do It For the Dogs is a passion project started by Tracey Burke, an ex-Cape Town advertising professional and ardent animal rights supporter. The project has evolved from a charity drive selling pre-loved clothes at pop-up second-hand clothes markets in Cape Town to an Instagram account and Facebook page, raising over R800k for animals in the last three years. 

All funds raised have been donated to animal welfare organisations that have struggled through the Covid-19-affected years and a lack of funding in general. The aim in 2023 is to get even more dogs sterilised, adopted, homed, loved or cared for.

“My favourite type of dog is a rescue,” says Tracey, “I love them all. And while I know that I can’t save every abandoned or neglected mutt out there, I know that I have to do everything I can to try. Do It For The Dogs was started to raise money for our hard-working, underfunded animal welfare organisations that already do so much. They do incredible work and need all the help they can get.”

The A5 desk calendar will feature works by Paul du Toit, David Kuijers, Sarah Pratt, John Pace, Xee Summer, Kirsten Sims, Zinthle Sithebe, Pigcasso, Jade Klara, Renee Rossouw, Olivie Keck and Frank van Reenen. 

The calendar comprises 12 cards featuring an artist per month, and the month appears at the back of the artwork. It’s been designed to be framed individually or as a collection at the end of the year. The calendar comes with a handy desk stand.

Selling for R350-00 (excluding courier costs) and all proceeds going to charity. 

The notebooks are all 100-page lined, soft cover notebooks. The DIFTD one is a blank/unlined 100-pager.

Selling for R40-00 (excluding courier costs) per notebook.

To order your calendar and/or notebook in time for Christmas, mail Tracey on traceyburke@mweb.co.za or WhatsApp 083 264 1805.  

Follow Do It For The Dogs on Instagram and Facebook.

These mugs are white, and printing on them can be done in most colours. Each mug has both images on and they’re made to order. 

Selling for R120-00 (excluding courier costs), and the sale of each mug supports For the Love of Animals.

Snuffle mats for happy hounds

Snuffle Mats are great to keep your dog occupied and provide mental stimulation by getting them to use both their brains and their noses. This satisfies their natural foraging instincts and is a great way to alleviate boredom.

Snuffle Mats are an ideal tool for indoor and outdoor use. Use them as a simple treat dispenser or to replace your dog’s regular boring old food bowl – either way, the Snuffle Mat will help to calm and relax your dog, providing him with loads of fun and invigoration.

A Snuffle Mat can also be used as a good distraction during thunderstorms or similar fearful occasions. 

Always supervise your dogs (especially puppies) when giving them a Snuffle Mat and remove it once the dogs have finished retrieving all the food/treats – this is to prevent them chewing it and removes any chance of the dogs digesting bits of the mat.

Colours may vary!

Selling for R200-00 (excluding courier costs), and Happy Tails readers get R20-00 off each Snuffle Mat they order until the 15th of February 2022. Add them to your cart and enter the coupon code HTAILS in the space provided on the bottom left of your cart to qualify. 

All proceeds go towards the care and vet treatment of the dogs at Dogtown SA.

To order your Snuffle Mat, visit this page on Dogtown’s online store: https://dogtownsa.org/shopping/snuffle-mats/

You can check out their online shop for other fantastic furry friend-related clothing, accessories and gifts, and now they have a wide range of pet toys and equipment too!

Get your dog snuffling

Doggy does diapers

These female Doggie Diapers are perfect for dogs with incontinence issues or females in season (that haven’t been spayed yet).

Our machine-washable Doggie Diapers are soft, comfortable, breathable, and environmentally friendly. Not only that, but by switching to washable, reusable Doggie Diapers, you’ll save money and won’t need to purchase disposables that end up in a landfill after a single use.

The cover is made from soft, stretchy waterproof TPU fabric, and the diaper is closed over the back of the dog with a soft velcro band. The inner layer is a soft, breathable mesh fabric. Inside the diaper you will find two layers of absorbing microfibre. Of course, we haven’t forgotten about the very important tail hole.

Note that you should change a dog’s diaper at least every 3-4 hours or as soon as it is soiled. Allowing urine or faeces to sit against your dog’s skin can lead to infections and is uncomfortable for your pet.

Sizing: Measure your dog at the narrowest point around the waist. Make sure you can get a couple of fingers comfortably under the waistband around your dog’s tummy to ensure your pet is comfortable. If your dog is in between sizes, factor in their weight. For a heavier dog, go up a size. For a skinny dog, go down a size.

Selling for R150-00 each, and 10% on every sale is donated to Kitty Care-Durban.

Something fishy!

Gizzls fishy CBD dog treats are hand baked with fresh mackerel that is full of omega 3 fatty acids. Mackerel is fished out of deeper waters than other fish. This makes it less likely to come from polluted environments and, thus, tends to be low in mercury levels that can be problematic in other fish sources; this means it’s a much healthier option. Each tasty, crunchy bite-sized treat contains 5mg of full-spectrum CBD.

This delicious mackerel treat, high in omega 3 fatty acids, with no added wheat, dairy or soy nor any artificial nasties, is great for a healthy skin and shiny coat too!

*Trust and exceptional quality are very important to Gizzls, so our treats have been lab tested through a 3rd-party independent laboratory in the USA to ensure we’re delivering the amount of CBD listed.*

Selling for R255-00, and 10% on the sale of each bag is donated to Harvey’s Haven.

Waste not, want not

These exquisite little Kingfisher sculptures are made almost entirely from nurdles that wash up on the Dana Bay beach near George. Nurdles are small lentil-shaped plastic pellets that are a raw material part of the plastic products manufacturing process. Billions of these non-decomposing plastic beads are finding their way into our oceans and onto our beaches, causing untold devastation to the environment, birds and marine life.

Animal-loving artist Lynn Ravat came across a post about nurdles on the Dana Bay Conservancy/Danabaai Bewarea Facebook group and wondered if they could be used to create something. It was only once 50kg of nurdles (collected in just one week) arrived that she realised how big the problem was… and decided what to do with them. Lynn is involved in bird rescue (see Happy Tails article), and shortly after the nurdles arrived, so did a critically injured Kingfisher in need of help. The little Kingfisher recovered and went on to be the inspiration behind these gorgeous works of art.

A whole handful of nurdles, along with small amounts of sea sand, sea grass and shells that came with them, goes into each bird. The base is made from an old cage/trap and burned gum pole, both found dumped in a veldt. Each bird is then exquisitely hand painted, except for the belly, where nurdles and the occasional seashell are left visible to show their story. The nurdles are painstakingly collected by hand from the beach by the patient and caring people of Dana Bay Conservancy and SAPREC.

These nurdle sculptures are perfect gifts that will also make a difference, raise funds and be an interesting conversation piece to raise awareness.

Selling for R250-00 each, of which R100 will go to the birds in our care, and R75 will go back to the Dana Bay Conservancy and SAPREC (Seabird and Penguin Rehab Centre).

To order your unique nurdle Kingfisher sculpture, email Lynn Ravat at lynnravat@gmail.com, or WhatsApp 082 568 0370, and include Happy Tails in your subject line.

Keep on shining

“Shine A Light” is the moving story of two incredible women, Corrine and Ingrid, who, at the outset, seem worlds apart, separated by the deep chasm of South Africa’s dark history. But as they traverse one of the most dangerous communities in Cape Town in search of vulnerable animals, they discover they are more similar than they are different. “Shine A Light” illustrates their unconditional love and the healing power of the animals that they rescue.

Through Ingrid’s eyes, and in conversations with people who’d never have otherwise spoken – gangsters, drug dealers and addicts – Corrine slowly begins to feel her perceptions waver when she learns that behind every broken animal is a broken human, and just because someone can speak, it doesn’t guarantee them a voice. This honest and heartfelt book offers a compelling and searching look at rediscovering our shared humanity.

Selling for R290-00 (excluding courier costs), and from each book sold, R50-00 will go towards an animal charity of the purchaser’s choice from the list provided on the Shine A Light website.

The perfect pet poo solution!

Picking up after your dog isn’t exactly the most enjoyable chore. Let’s face it: it’s gross! It can be tempting to skip this task, but doing so is bad for the environment and public health, plus it smells bad. Dog poop contains around 23 million harmful bacteria per gram, which can be harmful to humans and our pets. By using the Pet Poo Drain there’ll be at least one less garbage bag per household going to our overfull landfills every week.

Simply attach the Pet Poo Drain onto your existing sewerage outlet on the outside of your house (you don’t need a plumber to do this). The pet waste is rinsed directly into the sewer line – the same place your waste goes when you flush your toilet (what a concept – poop in the sewer). No more smelly garbage, flies or plastic bags filled with dog poop in your yard that’ll end up polluting our landfills. This product is:

• Environmentally friendly
• No chemicals needed
• No digging
• And last but not least, very convenient.

Selling for R399-00, including VAT (excluding courier costs – an additional R80-00 for major centres or R120-00 for outlying areas), and 12.5% on each sale is donated to the SPCA Polokwane.

Let Your Pets Run Freely Again

Collagen Pet Care Plus is a 3-in-1 nutritional supplement, meal enhancer and treat for dogs and cats containing collagen and MSM. This meaty-flavoured treat is highly beneficial for joint care, bone strength, healthy skin, strong nails, and a shiny coat.

Collagen makes up to 90% of a pet’s cartilage, tendons, and ligaments, so the integrity of their joints is also absolutely dependent upon its presence. If muscles and connective tissues loosen and become more brittle, our pets are more susceptible to injuries like torn cruciate ligaments, patellar subluxations, and elbow and hip dysplasia. Collagen loss in the bones and joints during ageing further plays a major role in arthritis, degenerative disc disease and tendonitis – three of the most common causes of pain in senior pets. Adding collagen to your pet’s diet not only helps to prevent these injuries and diseases, but may also strengthen weak bones and joints, and improve your pet’s mobility.

The formulation further contains methylsufonylmethane (MSM), which is not only a powerful anti-inflammatory agent that gently eases inflammation and pain in active and elderly pets, but also boosts coat and nail health by providing organic sulphur, needed for keratin production. In conjunction with the collagen peptides (which are also responsible for providing a healthy skin, shiny coat and strong nails) this product will have your pet looking and feeling great!

Our meaty-flavoured pet product forms a delicious gravy which is perfectly palatable for even the fussiest cats and dogs.

A 500g tub sells for R345-00 (excluding courier costs), and 7.25% on the sale of each tub will be donated to PMB Animal Rescue and Rehome.

Free delivery to your door for any order from Optwel Int. above R450-00!

AND 500g provides care for 1 to 5 months! (Depending on your pet’s breed/weight)

To order your Collagen Pet Care Plus, email sales@optwel.co.za and mention Happy Tails in your submit line. Like Optwel International’s Facebook page for awesome news, new products and competitions.

Calm is key!

Stress and anxiety can have very different triggers in animals, but they all have the same result: a very unhappy animal.

Loud fireworks or thunderstorms, for example, lead to high stress and panic reactions in almost all animals, as does a visit to the veterinarian, separation anxiety or an unusual situation, such as travel. RelaxoPet PRO successfully helps dogs, cats, horses and birds to remain calm in stressful situations, whether at home, in the stable, in a cage or in a new environment.

The key to relaxation in all animals is the subconscious. RelaxoPet PRO works through stimulation via sound frequencies, tone sequences and vibrations. Depending on the device type, these are tailored to the respective animal species. The device may assist with:

• Fear of fireworks/thunderstorms
• Separation/travel anxiety
• Destructive behaviours
• Vet visits
• Aggression
• ... and many more

Unlike humans, animals relax in different ways. The RelaxoPet PRO animal relaxation trainer is an innovative all-in-one solution for fast, deep relaxation based on the latest, frequent (subliminal) vibrations for dogs, cats, birds and horses in a compact design.

RelaxoPet PRO Animal relaxation trainers are practical, wireless, include a rechargeable lithium battery, and can be used in a wide variety of situations to manage your pet’s stress and anxiety, as well as unwanted behavioural problems. The devices have been developed in close collaboration with veterinarians, breeders and pet owners.

Selling for:

RelaxoPet PRO Dog, Cat, Bird: R1,699-00, ex VAT
RelaxoPet Sound Bag – Accessory for RelaxoPet PRO Dog, Cat, Bird Devices: R249-00, ex VAT

Loving lavender

Lavender is a herb known to have calming, soothing properties. Ingrid Liberté, founder of Australian Shepherd SA Rescue Organisation (ASSARO), was looking for an alternative way of helping dogs spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically, and, after much research, found dōTERRA Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia). It’s being used on the Australian Shepherds of ASSARO as part of the Aromatouch Technique from dōTERRA, as well as in the dōTERRA diffuser. It has great emotional benefits and soothes itchy skin and more.

dōTERRA oils are certified therapeutic grade oils and don’t have any synthetics in them that may be toxic to animals.

Selling for R451-00 (15ml and each bottle contains 250 drops). And these essential oils are sold to raise funds for ASSARO

Ease tummy troubles and more...

The happy tail of yours is having diarrhoea, indigestion or, even worse, may have been poisoned? Before you panic, you can give your pet EnteroZOO to prevent further damage.

Thanks to its adsorption properties, EnteroZOO for pets and farm animals can bind various noxious substances and toxins so as to detoxify the body, whatever the origin of the toxins, and to improve the animal’s condition very fast.

EnteroZOO is also effective in binding pathogenic bacteria and viruses. This encourages the growth of normal intestinal flora and restores the animal’s intestinal immunity. Another major benefit of the gel is the fact that, once its function has been performed, it’s completely eliminated from the body, together with any bound toxins.

EnteroZOO is a tasteless and odourless gel; there’s generally no problem with administering it repeatedly to any animal. As there are no significant side effects (very rarely, constipation may occur in some animals), EnteroZOO can be used not only as a veterinary drug for first aid in diarrhoea and poisoning but also for prevention purposes, e.g. when administering antibiotics or probiotics to dogs and other pets, or added to various food supplements for goats, lambs, calves and other pets and farm animals, including many bird species, even exotic. A two-hour interval between doses must be respected.

EnteroZOO can be used in the following conditions (ideally, after consulting your veterinary surgeon):

• Acute diarrhoea (of bacterial or viral origin, due to food poisoning or antibiotic administration)
• Chronic diarrhoea (of whatever origin)
• Indigestion (dyspepsia)
• Disturbed intestinal flora (e.g. due to taking antibiotics)
• Poisoning
• Chronic hepatic or liver disease/failure
• Allergies
• Skin conditions

Selling for (including VAT but excluding courier fees):

• Sachets 15 x 10 g = R480-00
• 100g = R380-00
• 450g = R960-00

And 10% of every order will be donated to Husky Rescue KZN

To order your EnteroZOO, email Iryna at info@enterozoo.co.za, and put Happy Tails in your subject line.

Note: This does not replace the advice of a veterinarian and, unless prediagnoses, you should always consult a vet to rule out serious health conditions.

From art to wine...

Pigcasso is the 750-kilogram painting pig prodigy who’s been taking the art world by storm since releasing her signature abstract expressionist collection in 2017. No stranger to hogging the limelight, Pigcasso made international news last year when she became the first non-human artist to host her own art exhibition, “OINK”, in South Africa, showcasing her Masterpieces that sell for anywhere between $500 and $4,000.

She also became SWATCH’s best-selling artist of all time when she designed their 2019 SWATCH watch. Having already sold a significant number of artworks by art collectors from around the world, she’s more than bringing home the bacon. Proceeds benefit Farm Sanctuary SA – an NPO where Pigcasso resides which aims to educate consumers on the detrimental effects of animal production on driving Climate Change – and to inspire a more sustainable and compassionate food production system.

Pigcasso was rescued from a typical industrialised hog farm in the Western Cape by Joanne Lefson in 2016. When Lefson noticed that Pigcasso had a knack for the paintbrushes lying in the barn, she decided to nurture the interest and develop Pigcasso’s artistic career.

And her latest endeavour? A wine label – and, with grapes being the Diva’s favourite snack, why not! PIGCASSO Black (PinoPinonn Noir) and PIGCASSO Pink (BLEND) have recently been released and will be available online and at the Sanctuary. 

Selling for between R180-00 and R280-00 per bottle (excluding courier costs), proceeds go towards the upkeep of the rescued animals at Farm Sanctuary SA.

For more information, contact Farm Sanctuary SA, Joanne Lefson oink@pigcasso.org or visit www.pigcasso.org

Catch ‘em on the run!

The uFurbabies Pet Tracker is a lightweight GPS tracking device that securely fits onto your pet’s existing collar and is suitable for both cats and dogs.

Using GPS Satellite technology, the unit transmits the wearer’s location straight to your smartphone via an app. What’s more, you can set up geo-location safe areas (“Geo-fences”) such as your house and garden; if your fur baby leaves this area, you’ll be notified on the app and can then track them.

Early notification means that, because you’re notified immediately, you can track them “on the run”, thus drastically shortening the risk of them being in danger or disappearing forever. Without the uFurbabies GPS Pet Tracking unit, you’ll only be aware of your fur baby being missing on your return home, which could be too late.

If your fur baby is missing and you haven’t received an alert, all you need to do is phone the unit and trace the ringing to where they’re hiding (ideal for pets that like to play hide ‘n’ seek at vet visit time).

Dimensions

• Small 45mm x 35mm x 12mm
• Light – 22 grams

Specifications

• Precise – GPS Accuracy uses satellites and Networks to track the pet
• Set Geo Fences with alarms to warn you via the app if your pet leaves the area
• Track replays
• User-friendly phone app for both Android and iPhone
• Long battery life – up to five days before recharging
• Water resistant to international standards
• 1-month airtime included to get you started

Selling for R1,399-00 + (R99-00 delivery anywhere in SA) – Pay as You Go or R1,999-99 + (R99-00 delivery anywhere in SA) – 12 months’ upfront airtime and ad-free app

R100-00 per unit sold via Happy Tails will be donated to TEARS Animal Rescue. Coupon Code to be used “HappyTails”. Valid until 31 August 2019.

By purchasing a bracelet, you pay for one sterilisation.

You have a choice between an 8mm or 10mm bead size – indicate preference.

A true story about Tank

TANK is a book about the severe loss of losing your soulmate and how what we perceive that as the end, is actually not the end at all.

The book takes you on the journey of Tank the Bull Terrier and how, at the age of 20 months, he contracted a rare bacterial infection that attacked his heart. The book tells the story of how we fought to beat this infection and how we ultimately lost the fight. But the story doesn’t end there; it only begins there.

After Tank transitioned from the physical world, he would come back to me in the most incredible ways, and he gave me incredible signs that he still lives on. He would also present to us his apprentice, Thor. And just so we never doubted, he ensured that his and Thor’s birthdays were the same (two years apart, both 06 Feb).

The idea of what I wanted my Bull Terrier to look like before we ever even got Tank would later be realised in every possible way in Thor. Thor would later sit by my side as I wrote TANK, and I knew all too well that Tank was with me in every word written. If you’ve ever lost a pet, this book will show you how these beloved souls never really leave us.
