SUPERMODEL pets Hollie and Patch are the stars of a 2019 calendar which will soon decorate the homes of animal lovers across the region.

After they were scouted during a social media search, the unlikely duo posed for photographer Kristy Janeway for the 12-month calendar – a fundraising initiative for the South East Animal Welfare League.

SEAWL fundraising sub-committee member Michelle Carey said the calendar was now available.

“Kristy Janeway very generously took beautiful photographs of Patch and Hollie for us,” Ms Carey said.

“The calendars are available from Key 2 Sale, GambierVets, HipPocket and our Riddoch Highway facility.

“All proceeds will directly benefit the league and help cover ongoing operating costs.”

The not-for-profit animal shelter will also draw a major raffle on December 14.

“The fundraising raffle has a total 17 prizes and tickets are on sale now,” Ms Carey said.

“Contact the SEAWL for information about where to purchase tickets.”

First prize is a two night stay at Aloha Marina Apartments in Robe valued at $550.

Other prizes include a $100 photography sitting voucher, pet supplies and bulk pet food.
