# Kids & Pets :)
1. They Teach Kids Values- Even doing simple chores like pouring food into a dish, kids will learn that pets are just like people, need food, shelter, exercise, and love as well.
2. Kids with Family Pets have Higher Self-esteem- Probably because they have a four-legged friend to love and who loves them right back, and a friend to talk to and play with when no one else is around.
3. They’re Good for Everyone’s Health- Brushing, patting, or stroking a furry creature can lo...

Do We Live Amongst Monsters?
4th Jun 2013, by SPCA Sarawak
BaBa on his 5th day at the shelter. No discharge and skin looks good and healing well. It's a tricky spot because there's tension on it which increases whenever he moves so it's a good thing that he's a calm and quiet dog which makes it all the more impossible to understand why he was hacked.

# Things to Consider before Adopting a Cat from SSPCA:
1. Is your Family ready for a Cat? Make sure everyone in the house is prepared to have a cat before your new pet comes home.
2. Giving a cat (or dogs)as a gift- We DO NOT encourage this as they are living breathing beings and not a disposable toy or item. Having a pet needs research and preparation and is a 10-20 years commitment(at least!). When you hear of people who plan to give a pet as a gift, please take the opportunity to educat...

Understanding The Work Of The SPCA (Not Just The SSPCA)
30th May 2013, by SPCA Sarawak
Imagine a roof that's leaking whenever there's rain. So you put a pail under each leak. Then imagine more leaks appear. So you find more pails and put one each under every leak everytime it rains. The problem is the leaks need to be patched up or when they get too many, the roof needs to be replaced. The roof represents people. The leaks represent animal abuse and dumpings. The pails represent animal shelters. Building more animal shelters is NOT the solution to the problem...

Do We Live Amongst Monsters?
29th May 2013, by SPCA Sarawak
This wasn't an aggressive dog but a friendly and harmless one which got hacked by someone who was described as being mentally unstable. Why is it that such people are allowed to mix with society unsupervised if they cannot contribute anything useful?
