Eco-friendly, pet safe candles that give back to animal rescue

100% Soy wax

  • Soy is the best for animals because it’s non-toxic, burns cleaner than paraffin (which releases harmful toxins), and produces less soot, reducing indoor air pollution. It also burns at a lower temperature, minimizing the risk of burns if a pet get too close. Plus, soy is natural, biodegradable, and free from synthetic additives that could harm pets.

non toxic fragrance oils

  • Non-toxic fragrance oils are crucial for pets because many synthetic fragrances contain harmful chemicals like phthalates, paragons, and VOCs that can irritate their respiratory systems, trigger allergies, or even cause long-term health issues. Pets, especially cats and birds are more sensitive to airborne toxins due to their heightened sense of smell and unique metabolisms. Using pet safe, non-toxic fragrance oils ensures a cleaner, safer environment without risking their health.

sustainability that gives back

  • At Paw & Flame Candle Co., we passionately encourage sustainability by offering discounted refills, allowing our customers to easily reuse or switch out their vessels and scents, reducing waste while enjoying delightful aromas. Every purchase supports our dedication to the community, as a portion of every sale goes directly to helping animals in Oakland and Alameda. This includes funding for vital TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) programs, providing food for feral colonies, and ensuring medical care and socialization for adoptable pets. By choosing our candles, customers not only light up their spaces but also illuminate the lives of local animals in need.
