This was Edna’s guiding principle in life. Her love for animals began with her very first duck—a love that only grew over time. Soon, an armada of corgis, birds (including Peter the Parrot and a canary named Tinka), more ducks, and countless goldfish followed. Each of these pets enriched her life, just as she enriched theirs.
When Edna decided to leave the escapades of the corporate world behind, diving head first into Healthy Pet Accessories felt like the natural next step. After all, she’d always found pets to be far better company than humans.
Today, Healthy Pet Accessories proudly stands as a family-owned and operated business, fuelled by the whole family’s love for animals. The only thing missing are the beloved pets we’ve had to say goodbye to. However, through creative touches, their spirit lives on. You’ll find some of our favourite pets sprinkled throughout—especially Tank and Faith, the boxer duo that kept a family, and business, together.
At Healthy Pet, we believe pets are family. Since our founding in 1999, we’ve been committed to enriching the lives of animals (and their humans!) with top-quality toys, healthy treats, nutritious food, and durable carriers and accessories. Based in Cape Town, South Africa, our family-owned business takes pride in serving pet stores, vets, and vet shops across the region.
What sets us apart? Our 24/7 online shop, designed to make your life easier. Whether you’re placing an order, tracking account balances, or checking credit information, you have everything you need at your fingertips—anytime, anywhere.
Our journey began with Edna, whose love for animals inspired her to leave the corporate world behind and dedicate her life to pets. From ducks and parrots to the boxer duo, Tank and Faith, Edna’s pets have always been at the heart of our story. Today, their spirit continues to guide us as a family-operated business that thrives on the values of family, perseverance, and a “work hard, play hard” ethos.
