The Domestic Animal Rescue Group (DARG) is in need of funds and supplies. They're looking for donation of anything from food to paper rolls so they can keep doing their work.
Once a year Cape Electric Tattoo hosts a charity day to raise funds for a good cause. This year they've chosen the Hout Bay based animal shelter.
Head to Cape Electric Tattoo on Buitensingel Street in Gardens on Saturday 13 July from 11am and get tattooed for a good cause... and meet some of the DARG dogs too.
ALL PROCEEDS TO DARG
There'll be loads of tattoo designs to choose from and prices range from R800 to R1600. All proceeds will be donated to DARG. Cape Electric Tattoos' regular artists will be there on the day and tattoos will be done on a first-come first served basis.
Doors open at 11am and all available designs are pre-drawn, no custom tattoos will be drawn on the day. This is a cash-only event, and no under-18s will be inked.
MORE WAYS TO SHOW SUPPORT
DARG will have a stand outside Cape Electric where they'll be selling cool drinks, coffee, mini chocolates, snacks and raffle tickets to raise funds for DARG. You can also buy DARG mugs, buffs, T-shirts, phone covers, bracelets and notebooks.
RAFFLE PRIZES UP FOR GRABS
Raffle tickets will cost R20 and put you in line to win these cool prizes:
More prizes will be announced closer to the event day. The prize draw will take place on Sunday 14 July at DARG Hout Bay by the Director and Manager, Faustina Gardner.
ATTENDING THE CHARITY TATTOO DAY FOR DARG ANIMAL RESCUE

MORE ABOUT DARG ANIMAL RESCUE
DARG primarily rescues, cares for, sterilises and re-homes abused, neglected and abandoned cats and dogs. They do work with other animals and provide a crucial role for the lower-income communities of Imizamo Yethu, Hangberg and the greater Hout Bay area.
DID YOU KNOW?
DARG’s smallest animal is a rabbit and the largest is a cow.
One of DARG’s dog trainers/walkers can run faster than most of the dogs.
DARG makes entertainment and dance videos with staff and dogs which you can watch on Facebook
I WANT TO VISIT, WALK OR ADOPT
You can visit DARG Hout Bay from Monday to Sunday 10am–3pm, to have a look at some of the socialised dogs and cats.
If you're looking to adopt an animal, you'll need to complete an adoption application form, have a required home check and pay the adoption fee of R795, which covers sterilisation, microchipping, updated vaccinations, updated deworming and updated de-fleaing processes.
If you'd like to walk the dogs, you'll need to complete a dog walking orientation and make a booking.
