Big Cat Rescue – An Animal Welfare Organization Dear To Our Hearts

big cat rescue lionessSevani non toxic skin care products weren’t created just to help humans stay beautiful naturally – we also developed them to help animals.  Since the beginning our skin care line has been vegan, cruelty free and,  a portion of all Sevani’s proceeds has gone to help animal rescue organizations.

One of those near and dear to our hearts is Big Cat Rescue.  Here’s just a bit about them in their own words…

“Big Cat Rescue is the largest accredited sanctuary in the world dedicated entirely to abused and abandoned big cats. We are home to over 100 lions, tigers, bobcats, cougars and other species most of whom have been abandoned, abused, orphaned, saved from being turned into fur coats, or retired from performing acts. Our dual mission is to provide the best home we can for the cats in our care and educate the public about the plight of these majestic animals, both in captivity and in the wild, to end abuse and avoid extinction.”

We’ve included their video below as well so you can learn more about this fantastic organization.

Agree Big Cat Rescue is a great cause and want to help?  You can donate directly by clicking here as well as learn more about other ways you can help in addition to financial support.

And remember, you can support Big Cat Rescue and other animal rescue organizations simply by purchasing Sevani non toxic skin care products  too!   Our love for and support of animal welfare groups like Big Cat Rescue will never change.  Its a commitment we’re proud of and will keep forever!

Adopt A Shelter Animal Today And Find A New And Very Special Furrriend

animal shelter dogI have always had a special connection to animals of all kinds.  Since I can remember I’ve wanted to love and care for animals.   I’ve got a lot of sensitivities (chemical, sensory, etc) and although they can be challenging at times, these are what’s led me to where I am today.

These sensitivities are also what has led me to my desire to rescue shelter animals as well as support those shelter animals I can’t house, along with the humans that work to help them, in any way I can.

I encourage you to do the same!

If you’re thinking of getting a pet, and feel like you have the time, money, and patience needed to love and care for a pet, then visit your local shelter and adopt one of the beautiful animals stuck there.

natural skin care kittyAfter all, its not their fault they’re at the shelter.

Plus, in most cases, those expensive pure breeds already have loving homes; and if not, you’re using your money to support “puppy mills” or another shady type of animal operation!

Instead, visit your local animal shelter and give one of those animals a home.  If you’re really set on a particular breed, you can always use a site like www.petfinder.com or other local websites and find a rescued animal that fits your needs simply by sitting at your desk and clicking buttons!

I’ve honestly had nothing but amazing experiences with all my shelter animals.  They’re just wonderful!  I have several rescues right now and have given a home, love, and care to many more.  I can’t recommend the shelter animal adoption process more.  It’s rewarding, and, best of all, you get a very special new furry friend out of the deal!!

Visit your local animal shelter today and give an animal a furrever home if you can.  If not, then please, make a donation.  Of course, they always need money, but shelters can often be in need of things like old sheets and towels, chew toys, dog food, etc.  Many shelters also need volunteers to help walk dogs or go into the “cat rooms” and spend time with the feline members of the shelter just petting them and playing with them.

Help these dear animals out and support your local animal shelter; you’ll only get love in return!

Are You An Animal Lover? Then Certified Cruelty Free Skin Care Products Are Important To You

Do you have furry friends?  Loved ones that walk on four legs instead of two?  Maybe your one of us that are just “drawn” to those that walk within the animal world.  The bottom line is, if you love animals then you need to know how important certified cruelty free skin care products are.

Many personal care product companies still test on animals, or, use products in their own formulations that are tested on animals.  I don’t enjoy sharing those graphic pictures of what happens during these “tests”, but, suffice it to say, its horrific.  Horrific enough that it should never even be done.

As an experienced  and Licensed Aesthetician and MAJOR animal lover, animal testing  and cruelty was always, and continues to be, a huge issue for me.  In fact, when I went to work developing the formulations for Sevani, I made sure that every single skin care product we formulated was certified cruelty free.

For me, this is a way to offer an alternative to people that want to support the rights of the four legged creatures of this world yet still use skin care products that are effective.  I want to make it easy for others to spend their money where their mouth is so to speak and support companies, like Sevani, that refuse to test on animals or use products that do.

We don’t just create cruelty skin care products though; we do animal rescue as well, and support other companies like us too!

In addition, we help our furry friends by donating a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Sevani to various animal welfare organizations both local and national.   We’re also a Leaping Bunny “Certified Cruelty Free Company”.

So, look for the leaping bunny logo and only buy Certified Cruelty Free skin care products.  Say no to animal testing, and don’t support these companies with your hard earned dollars.  Then, they’ll be forced to listen and Stop Testing on Animals.
