Purrs, Paws & Pure Joy: Cat & Dog Lovers Festivals Return to Sydney this August

Sydney’s most joy-filled weekend for pet lovers is back! The Sydney Cat Lovers Festival and Dog Lovers Festival will return to the Sydney Showground on Saturday 23 and Sunday 24 August 2025, offering two extraordinary events for the price of one.

With just one ticket, visitors can access both Festivals, creating an unmissable celebration of our furry companions – from whiskered wonders to loyal four-legged legends. Whether you're a devoted feline fan, a passionate dog person, or both, this is a weekend to learn, connect, shop and be inspired.

At the heart of Hall 6, the Sydney Cat Lovers Festival will once again pounce onto the scene with two full days dedicated to celebrating our feline friends. 

Cat lovers can meet dozens of breeds, get up close in the Pat-A-Cat Zone, and hear from Australia’s top experts on everything from behaviour and communication to adoption and nutrition.

The WHISKAS® Stage will feature an exciting line-up of talks from well-known personalities including Dr Katrina Warren, Saba Sayyed, Rose Horton, and US-based kitten rescuer and social media sensation Hannah Shaw, widely known as the Kitten Lady. Her deeply engaging Saving Kittens Workshop is set to be a major highlight, offering invaluable advice for aspiring foster carers.

New to this year’s line-up is CatKwiz, an energetic live game show inspired by the much-loved format of RockWiz, but with a feline twist. This interactive trivia experience invites audience members to test their knowledge on everything from breed quirks to pop culture cats, with plenty of laughs along the way.

Back by popular demand, Kitty Cosplay returns on the Saturday, with cat lovers of all ages dressing up as their favourite feline breeds and characters in a fun, feel-good parade that showcases creative costumes and purr-sonalities.

Plus the popular Feline Natural Breed Showcase will present loads of rare and popular breeds.

Meanwhile, just a short stroll away, the Sydney Dog Lovers Festival will be bursting with tail-wagging fun across The Dome. 

Fan favourite, Farmer Dave Graham returns to bring his Super Dog Spectacular to festival goers. From Kurgo DockDogs® leaping through the air in the giant pool, to Mini Dog Races, Temptation Alley, and the awe-inspiring K9 SuperWall, the energy will be non-stop on the VitaPet Arena.

The ADVANCE™ Stage will feature an all-star line-up including Jamie the Dog Trainer, Lara Shannon, Sam March from The Dog House, and Marlene Brewer & Hudson from ABC’s Muster Dogs, offering insights into training, behaviour and deepening the bond with your canine companion.

With hundreds of dogs across dozens of breeds, engaging activities like the Barney Bed Pat-A-Pooch, and expert education at every turn, the Dog Lovers Festival is a celebration of unconditional love.

Across both Festivals, the Adoption Zone will provide the chance to meet cats and dogs looking for loving forever homes, with expert support to help guide the adoption journey.

The Festivals also feature expansive shopping precincts, with hundreds of exhibitors showcasing the latest in pet food, tech, wellness, accessories, toys and more – perfect for those who love to spoil their best friends.

Event Director Paul Mathers said the events are an annual highlight for pet lovers across the country and continue to evolve to deliver even more joy and connection.

“There’s something really special about the Cat and Dog Lovers Festivals. They bring together a beautiful mix of education, entertainment and community in a way that resonates with people of all ages and backgrounds.”

“Whether you’re a long-time pet parent, planning to adopt, or just love animals, the weekend is designed to make you smile, learn something new, and feel part of something bigger.”

With an inclusive atmosphere, world-class content, and a wide appeal from first-time pet-parents, to dedicated adopters, and pure pet fanatics the Festivals truly celebrate the universal joy that cats and dogs bring to our lives.

Visitors are encouraged to book early, with demand already high and capacity limited.

Keeping Cats Healthy & Happy this Winter

The great indoors: How to transition outdoor pets for winter comfort

As temperatures drop across Australia, pet owners must take extra precautions to ensure their four-legged friends remain warm, comfortable, and healthy throughout the winter months. Just like humans, pets are susceptible to the cold, and their needs change with the season. 

Whether they’re young, old, scaly, short-haired or long-haired, Petstock Vet Dr Sasha Nefedova shares expert guidance on keeping pets warm, active, and healthy throughout winter.

Shelter and warmth

Even indoor pets can feel the chill, so it’s important to provide warm and cosy bedding, preferably placed in a draft free space and away from hard floors.

For pets that spend time outside, ensure their shelter is weatherproof and lined with insulation or blankets.

Aside from bedding, pets can benefit from extra layers in colder weather. Certain breeds and senior pets may struggle to maintain body heat, making winter apparel an essential addition to their routine while keeping them stylish. 

Pet jumpers, coats and waterproof jackets can help keep pets warm on chilly walks, while socks protect sensitive paws from cold surfaces. Ensure any clothing is well-fitted, comfortable, and doesn’t restrict movement.

Grooming and skin care

Dry winter air and heating can cause skin irritation, so regular brushing can help distribute natural oils and keep fur healthy. 

Be sure to avoid excessive bathing and pay attention to your pets paws, ensuring you’re checking for cracks or dryness which can be exacerbated by cold or rough surfaces. If you do notice any cracks or dryness, applying pet-safe moisturizers or paw balms can help. 

No matter their hair length, tangles and matting can be more prevalent in winter so consistent grooming is crucial to maintaining coat health.

Exercise and mental stimulation

Although winter weather can make outdoor play less appealing, regular activity is still essential. If you do plan on going for a walk once it’s dark, consider a light-up collar to keep you and your pet safe.

Wand Space  RRP: $14.97

Shorter, frequent walks during the warmest parts of the day, as well as interactive indoor games, will help prevent boredom and behavioural issues. 

For those staying indoors, look to integrate slow or puzzle feeders and training exercises to keep your dog mentally stimulated. 

Cats can benefit from climbing structures, scratching posts, and interactive toys to maintain their physical and mental well-being.

Pet-proofing your home

With many pet owners admitting to leaving the heating on specifically for their four-legged friends, it's imperative to take proactive measures to pet-proof your home and ensure their safety.

✔️ Candle Safety: Store lit candles away from pets' reach to prevent burns and fire hazards.

✔️ Wood Heater Safety: Use a safety screen or guard with indoor wood heaters or chimneys to protect pets from burns and prevent accidents.

✔️ Gas Heater Maintenance: Have gas heaters serviced at the start of the season to detect leaks and prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

Victoria Leads Nation With Pet-Friendly Aged Care Reform

CANA urges national action to keep older people and pets together

National animal welfare charity Companion Animal Network Australia (CANA or Australia CAN) has welcomed the passage of the Retirement Villages Amendment Bill 2024 (Vic) through both Houses of the Victorian Parliament as a significant and compassionate win for the rights and wellbeing of older Australians and their companion animals.

Among the suite of reforms designed to strengthen consumer protections in retirement living, the new legislation includes a landmark provision that prohibits retirement villages from having rules which “unreasonably limit the keeping a pet on a resident’s premises”.

“With 95% of people agreeing that pets improve health outcomes for older Australians, pet- friendly aged care should be the norm, not the exception,” said Trish Ennis, CEO of CANA.

“We are thrilled to see this amendment pass with unanimous support in the Victorian Parliament. This sends a powerful message that companion animals matter as a member of the family.”

According to CANA’s 2023 Aged Care Survey:

Status of Pets in Aged Care, only 18% of aged care facilities allow residents to keep pets, and just 9% of older pet owners living at home – who rely on government-funded Home Care Packages (HCPs).

As a result, “pet surrenders due to life changes, such as moving into aged care or struggling to meet a pet’s needs, continue to rise,” said Ms Ennis. 

“Many older Australians lose not only a cherished companion but also the daily joy, comfort and sense of purpose that a pet provides.”

 A champion for positive change

On behalf of its animal welfare agency members, CANA congratulates all parliamentarians involved, especially Georgie Purcell MP, a member of the Animal Justice Party and the Legislative Council for Northern Victoria, for championing this amendment.

“Now we call on all other state governments to follow Victoria’s lead and prioritise the wellbeing of older Australians by embedding similar protections in their own legislation,” said Ms Ennis.

Ms Purcell, who successfully moved the pet-friendly amendment to the Bill, spoke passionately in Parliament about the emotional toll that restrictive pet policies take on older Victorians.

She said: “It is unacceptable that older Victorians can be forced to choose between keeping a pet they love and finding a retirement community that they love. This amendment aims to strike a fair balance by allowing villages to manage legitimate concerns while ensuring residents are not unfairly denied the companionship and comfort that their pets provide.

“The amendment also seeks to put an end to the restrictive and often unnecessary rules that prevent residents from keeping pets in their homes, often imposed as a matter of policy or convenience. These blanket bans or arbitrary limitations fail to consider individual circumstances and can have a significant impact on the wellbeing of residents.”

Ms Purcell further emphasised the critical role of pets in supporting the mental wellbeing of older Australians: “For many older people, especially those living alone, animals are not just companions, they are a lifeline. This reform ensures that no one has to sacrifice the love and loyalty of a pet in order to feel safe and supported in their later years.”

In her speech, Ms Purcell also acknowledged CANA’s long-standing work in this space, referencing the charity’s Pet Friendly Aged Care program and its role as a national voice for companion animal welfare and policy change.

Next step, a national approach

While Victoria has now positioned itself as a leader in pet-friendly aged care reform, CANA is calling on other state and territory governments to follow suit.

“This is not just a Victorian issue, it’s a national one,” Ms Ennis said. “Research consistently shows that pets help reduce loneliness, lower stress and improve cardiovascular and mental health – factors especially vital for older Australians.

“CANA stands ready to work with all jurisdictions to ensure aged care policy recognises the powerful human–animal bond and protects the rights of older Australians to age with their companions by their side.”

Take the survey and help make a difference

CANA’s Pet Friendly Aged Care program aims to ensure no person is forced to surrender a beloved animal due to entering aged care. 

CANA is inviting aged care providers, policymakers, pet owners and community members to take part in their 2025 Pet Friendly Aged Care Survey to help shape policies that support pet companionship in aged care.

“We believe it’s time for a change and by participating in the survey, you are helping advocate for policies that allow older Australians to continue experiencing the companionship of their beloved pets and helping to keep pets at home,” said Ms Ennis.

The Survey is open to the General public, Residential Aged Care (staff or resident), Retirement Village (staff or resident), In Home Aged Care (carers or cared for) and Home Care Providers.

From zoomies to snack time and full-on mischief, Stitch is caught in the act thanks to Furbo’s AI-powered Smart Alerts, Live View, and most incriminating of all, Video History.

But it doesn’t just end in watching—we chat with Nanny Chat to get a full rundown of Stitch’s day. Nanny Chat also calms the chaos with a treat toss, and keeps an eye on every corner of the room with the 360° rotating view. We even get a silly Selfie Alert when Stitch says hi and sends a virtual kiss.

✔️ AI Vet Report Translator - decodes technical reports into pet-parent talk

✔️ Enhanced App UI & Smart Alerts - alerts are always getting smarter

Furbo peace of mind, even with a Stitch at home.

Furbo’s safety-first features also help to stay worry-free. From Barking Alerts to Emergency Alerts like CO/Smoke Alarm Alerts, if something’s not quite right, Furbo will send an instant alert —so we can act fast, from anywhere.

This co-branded campaign reminds us that even when we’re away from home, love (and a little tech magic) keeps us close.
