BIG Announcement!!!

At the begining of July our new home will be at the Swakopmund Adventure Park & Paintball Centre together with Peter van Ginkel. We have been working on creating a magical new refuge for the animals in our care using recycled shipping containers.
We aim to open again on the 8th of July and will be sharing videos and photos documenting the whole process over the next three weeks. As usual we didn't do this alone and have many people to thank for their assistance along the way which we will do so in aseries of posts.

We are still open at our current location until the last weekend of June and hope to see you there or at our new home.

Happy Father's Day

Today, we celebrate the fathers and father figures whose strength, wisdom and quiet sacrifices help shape the future of our families and communities.

Thank you for the lessons you teach, the values you uphold, and the love and support you give so generously. Your guidance inspires confidence, resilience and hope in the next generation.

To all the amazing dads, grandfathers and father figures. Thank you for making a difference every day.

Wishing you a wonderful Father's Day.
