Catnip toys for big and little cats!
Our huge punchbags filled with 100% catnip, donated by Kunduchi, are adored by ADI Wildlife Sanctuary residents like Mahla! Now, for the first time, a small version is available for the smaller cat in your life and sales raise funds for the animals at the sanctuary.
We have a special sale offer with big reductions. The catnip toys come in a special box featuring Mahla in action and the sanctuary gets a percentage of every sale! If you buy one PLEASE SEND PICS of your companion with it and we will post a special gallery of cats playing with the toys alongside their larger cousins (like Sasha, Mahla and Ruben) in action with the huge punchbags.

At the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary (ADIWS), our pride and joy are the huge natural habitats where our rescued lions and tigers can run free and express themselves – there’s no sight in the world quite like seeing a lion or tiger run full speed across acres of space. Sheer joy for life!

We had a great evening on Wednesday LIVE from the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, South Africa. You never know who you’ll encounter as we take a stroll around the sanctuary on these live events and on Wednesday evening we got to meet quite a few residents as we treated them to delicious ice-lollies.

One of the most magical things when rescuing lions and tigers is seeing them finally run at full speed and keep going. ADI rescued Stripes (pictured) from a circus in Guatemala where the tigers were living in cages about the size of queen-sized beds. At the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, they have the space to run and express themselves. If a lion or a tiger cannot run like this, then the cage or enclosure is too small.
Here comes the summer
It’s spring in South Africa at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary and we can feel summer is on its way (December); the sun is shining, the first rains have started to turn the landscape green, and Stripes is playing ball in the pool!

Rolex, son of the beloved and dearly missed Leo and Muñeca, has been a resident of the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary since we built it, 5 years ago.
Rescued from a circus in Peru with his family, he was saved on the very first day of ADI’s Operation Spirit of Freedom in 2014, a mission enforcing Peru’s ban on wild animals in circuses. His mother and sisters were brought to safety a few months later.
ADI emptied every cage in this rescue mission lasting almost two years and saving over 100 animals including 33 lions!
