Venue: Valverde Eco Hotel
Dates: Fri 8th - Mon 11th July 2022
The 2022 Convention was held at Valverde Eco Hotel and themed "Cyberpunk". After a 2-year involuntary break (thanks to the pandemic), we had an amazing 4th convention! Times were also challenging, after the recent loss of our founder, Ivic Wulfe, who will be dearly missed, but we managed to pull it off and look forward to an even better 2023 convention. We had 56 attendees this year and managed to raise R22,000 that was donated, split was as follows:
R8580 donated to PACT (Phoenix Animal Care & Treatment)
R6820 donated to Cheetah Experience
R6600 donated to Jugomaro Predator Park
In 2018 we were officially listed as the highest donating furry convention in the world, we didn't look into this in 2019 but hope to get the official title again this year 🙂

Dates: Fri 12th - Mon 15th July 2019
​The 2019 Convention was held at Ekudeni Exclusive Country Venue and themed 80's. We really raised the bar on this one and had great feedback from the attendees as a result! We managed to raise R17,000 that was donated to Husky Rescue KZN (last year we donated to Husky Rescue in Johannesburg), what an amazing improvement on an already amazing donation from last year!
In 2018 we were officially listed as the highest donating "per head" furry convention in the world, with R12,000 from 42 furs! This year we've broken our own record, raising an amazing R17,000 from only 52 furs that attended!
