Volunteers Travel - The white lion



Kevin and Mandy Richardson’s animal sanctuary is a well-established predator facility, home to many of Africa’s top predators, such as hyena, lion and leopard. The Big 5 game reserve, an initiative of the government, and a project still in its development stage, has still much to do. Both the sanctuary and the private sector of the game reserve are run together with Kevin and Mandy Richardson. You might recognize Kevin’s name from a series on National Geographic called “The Lion Ranger” or his book “Part of the Pride”. Kevin is a well-known lion and hyena behaviourist, constantly amazing people with his interactions with predators, in a way that most of us can only dream of. Witness a side of predators that you cannot see in the wild or by merely watching a documentary, an experience that will leave you amazed by the beauty and magnificence of African predators. Be a part of this development is a once in a life time experience and you will leave knowing and having experienced what it really takes to develop such a project. Also see the rare and special white lion only found in South Africa.

Feline fine dining

It costs £24.99 per portion and contains roasted duck, lobster sushi roll, Beluga caviar and beetroot jellies.
The nutritionally balanced dish, which is enough to feed a cat for a whole day, is the creation of Simon Rimmer, the celebrity chef, who worked with Joe Inglis, the television vet. Given its price tag, however, it may be more of a special treat than an everyday meal for many cats, as owners would have to spend £9,121.35 to feed their pets the "Chat Delices" meal daily for a year.

Over the average 14-year life of a domestic cat, this would total £127,698.90

iFetch

Dog owners who are tired of playing fetch with their pet can now sit back and relax - as the latest doggie gadget can do it for you. The contraption dubbed the iFetch will launch tennis balls for dogs to catch and bring back without any human interaction.



The device works by using a special shoot that will throw a ball between 10ft and 30ft in the air from a hole at the front of the machine. Once canines have grabbed it they simply need to bring it back and place it in a compartment at the back for the iFetch to launch once again. The gadget was invented by Denny Hamill and his grandson Grant, 19, who were becoming tired of chucking balls every few minutes for their poodle Prancer.
