UPDATE - HOMED

This is Romeo, currently based in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town and he is looking for a new forever hom. He is approximately 4 years old. He is very loving, affectionate, a little curious and loves to wander a little bit, but ultimately just wants to be in a loving, calm home. Good with other cats. Not tested w dogs.

Vaxxed. Neutered. Chipped.
Clean bill of health 👌

Home checks will apply - a discounted rehoming fee of R550 will be required. *Romeo needs a home with No small/noisy* children.
Please contact Zelda - 082 722 9562 to apply. 🐱

I loved this series so so much.

How cool that a doggo is on the red carpet? 🐕‍🦺🤍

Aria Mia Loberti made history at the recent Golden Globes as the first legally blind actress to grace the red carpet with her guide dog. Her role in the acclaimed series “All the Light We Cannot See” was acknowledged, emphasizing the significance of genuine representation in entertainment. Loberti expressed the honor of representing her community and culture, stressing the unprecedented nature of authentic portrayal on such a grand scale in film. Her impactful presence signifies the importance of inclusion and authenticity in the entertainment industry, paving the way for greater diversity.❤️🦮👏🏻

That’s a wrap for 2023!

A MASSIVE thank you to each and every person who supported me this year! It was a weird one but we made it!

I am so grateful that I get to make ceramics for your furkids, it gives me so much purpose and hope to continue doing so for years to come.

Wishing you all a blessed and happy festive season!

P.S prices will unfortunately be going up in the new year, as with everything else I need to make these adjustments in order to keep the kiln on 🫶

Eggy!!!!

If you know me you know how obsessed I am with eggs! Every morning! And sometimes even for lunch as well! Omelette for dinner, I’m your girl. 💁‍♀️

So I made this spoon rest in the class that I trash alongside every Tuesday and to say I L🍳VE it is an understatement. Obsessed!

Eggy content incoming!

Yoh mense life has been LIFING!

In between potting I’ve been doing freelance work for my florist friends, feeding my outreach animals on Bottelary road and making sure that whoever needs to be groomed is sorted. Looking after neighbours dogs after she had an op. Teaching ceramics every Tuesday with my dear friend . I am also studying to become a Pilates instructor and working on my Soenchie website to prepare for this news! 😅

News: I will be having a sale soon soon, sign up to my mailing list to be the first to find out! Link in my stories!

ALSO: I will be putting my prices up - BOO! I know - but it will be my first increase since inception of this little business and this is necessary in order for me to be able to continue!

Ok enjoy this cute photo of little Tiny and I hope you’re all lifing lekker! 🤍

I am so excited to announce my colab with .guest.farm & to bring you this amazing giveaway, just in time for that winter getaway with the fukids (and a possible snow experience, if you are lucky)!
❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

I visited this magical place earlier this year and completely fell in love.

Langdam offers more than just guest accommodation, it is also a working farm specialising in a variety of agricultural ventures. Situated in the Koo Valley, the accommodation rests at the foot of the Langeberg mountains with spectacular views and a sense of peace, unique to farm-style life.
This farm is home to 7 friendly dogs that are part of the Langdam Family, so naturally this is a good fit for Soenchie and my connection with like-minded hoomans!

Please read the slides to find out how you can qualify for the lucky draw - the winner will be announced on the 9th of June 2023. 🤍

A bit of a photo dump of some of the doggy moments I’ve had over the last few weeks 😻

First up sassy sweet Mila, involved in all the chats at the table. Second, my neighbors’ pup that I look after some days 😅 The pom, a rescue that I reunited with his momma and of course Gemma and Tiny. 😊

Lab Rescue | A Chat with Jane - soenchie 20/04/2023

I did a little interview with Jane from Labrador Rescue South Africa to get to know her and the organization a bit better. The Lab rescue organization does INCREDIBLE work and are always in need of funds. Read a little more about them and support however you are able to. 🤍

Lab Rescue | A Chat with Jane - soenchie Lab Rescue | A Chat with Jane Dogs are often referred to as man’s best friend for good reason. They are loyal, loving, and make excellent companions.

I am figuring out how to move forward with the current loadshedding, but in the meantime please enjoy this gracious being called Pepper munching her dinner. She is a border collie mix and she has THE BEST personality!

I had the pleasure of looking after her and her little (big) sister Coco during the holidays. (More on Coco soon). Although I haven’t been able to make bowls and do firings the last few weeks, I have been very fortunate to spend time with amazing furkids and I am grateful!

How has 2023 treated you so far? 🤍

I’m done, for now! My perseverance has met the end of the string for 2022 😃

I will see what happens in the new year and how I will pivot to keep this little business going. But for now I am going to be like Eskom and switch off. 😮‍💨

Thanks to every single person who supported me this year! Every order, every chat at the markets and all the lovely doggos I met along the way, I truly cherish and appreciate you all!

Have a beautiful festive season with loved ones! 🤍 To all those still waiting for orders I say thanks for your patience, I am ready for the next gap I get to do a firing. 🫶
