Winter has made its icy appearance and what better way to beat the chill than inviting a furry pal into the bed.
The Animal Guardians (TAG) is filled to capacity with cuddle buddies, ready to warm your feet and heart this winter.
Pop in at 86 Cloverdene Road, Van Ryn, Benoni, to meet some of the animal welfare society’s ‘paw-some’ pals.
Ciao Bella. This gentle Staffie-cross is the ultimate BFF. She loves to socialise and spill the tea on all the neighbourhood’s happenings while indulging in relaxing belly rubs. Photo: Jani de Beer
