Bridging Tourism and Animal Welfare Together for a Better Tomorrow
Why Partner With CANDi
Partnering with CANDi -Cats and Dogs International, is a powerful way to enhance brand reputation while improving both community well-being and guest experience.

CANDi offers expert consulting and proven, low-cost programs—like spay-neuter initiatives, feeding stations, and guest-friendly concepts like Cat and Dog Cafés—that reduce negative press risks, generate goodwill, and create a cleaner, more welcoming environment.
The result: happier guests, stronger brand image, and lasting impact at a minimal cost.
