Event information
The Paws-a-While Pet Fair & Market is a monthly community event dedicated to animal adoption, welfare awareness and pet-friendly fun. The market brings together local rescue groups, pet-care businesses and live entertainment along the Sea Point Promenade.
Adoption drives are a central feature, with dogs and cats seeking new homes. Visitors can browse stalls showcasing pet health products, toys, grooming services and nutrition advice. Informational displays and expert talks highlight responsible ownership and wellness.
The setting by the ocean promenade creates a sociable, relaxed atmosphere for pet owners to connect, stroll and enjoy the sea views. Food trucks and live music add vibrancy, while dogs and their people wander freely between the attractions.
Entry is free, and the fair operates as both an adoption initiative and a showcase for Cape Animal Welfare Forum members. The Sea Point area is well connected by MyCiTi bus services and has multiple e-hailing points nearby.
