Cuddly and furry: Guests at the event preview held by Petz PowWow for pet owners.


Pet owners’ charity meet


WANT to help independent pet rescue groups? Two organisations have lined up two separate activities to raise money for them.

The first event called Petz PowWow is organised by Petz Unleashed Sdn Bhd and revolves around creating a fun-filled day for people and their pets.

Scheduled to be held on April 16 and 17 at Mines Square, Mines shopping mall in Seri Kembangan, the event will include the participation of several animal welfare organisations and pet product companies.

Among the groups given a booth at the event is canine welfare project Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better (MDDB) and HOPE.

Petz Unleashed’s Lukman Kusuma said guests can participate in various interesting events such as the Best Dressed Pet Contest, Most Photogenic Pet(s) & Owner Contest and Best Pet & Owner Lookalike Contest.

“Petz Unleashed will be running their own contests such as Owner and Pet Food Eating Contest for which Canadian Pizza will be sponsoring pizzas,” said Lukman.

Pet food company Royal Canin will also launch its breed-specific food range for the Golden Retriever and Rottweiler at the event.

Lukman said the key objective of the Petz PowWow carnival was to provide a fun-filled outing for pet owners and their families.

“There are few avenues in Malaysia where pet owners can spend a day or two with their pets in a fun atmosphere. We are trying to provide such avenues on a regular basis and I am glad that more companies are coming forward to support us,” added Lukman.

Details are at www.petzunleashed.com, shoba@petzunleashed.com or call 012-2863471.

The second event is organised by the country’s leading adoption portal PetFinder.my on April 23 and 24.

The event, which is in conjunction with the portal’s third anniversary, is a charity fair held at Sunway Pyramid’s Orange Wing, LG2 from 12pm-8pm

PetFinder.my’s Andy Koh said the event would be attended by seven leading animal welfare NGOs — SPCA Selangor, PAWS, HOPE, Save A Stray, Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better, Paws Mission and AnimalCare.

“They will be making available an assortment of merchandise and sharing knowledge on responsibly managing pets,” said Koh.

He said that six altruistic merchants would be offering exclusive art and crafts for sale, donating the profits to charity.

In addition to various interesting products on sale, the event will also have exciting stage activities, performances and contests, offering alluring prizes and giveaways.

Taking this charity campaign a step further, PetFinder.my and HeartBeat.my has partnered to kickstart a month-long online donation drive to raise funds for the NGOs, where the latter will donate 50% of sales from PetFinder.my’s animal lovers, so people unable to attend the event can contribute as well.
