this bright-eyed beauty? Come visit her soon if you are!

Ida is a female mixed breed with one of the friendliest faces you’ll ever see on a dog. She enjoys being with people and would make an excellent family pet. She is a medium size girl and likes to exercise, so she would do best in a home with a garden or access to a public dog run. She is sociable with other friendly dogs but needs to be introduced to them slowly. She is very pretty (she looks like she’s wearing mascara!) as well as intelligent, and she can sit, down and walk on leash for tre...

Zoba is a lovely dog with a vibrant personality that will eventually grow on you. She's the type of dog who would wag her tail in happiness each time she sees you and probably lick your face to show her affection towards you. This puppy just wants love at the end of the day as much as she wants to give it. If you're willing to open up your heart and home to her, don't make her wait!

We collaborated with the good folks over at Cat Welfare Society and for the month of June, we'll be helping to microchip the cats registered under "LOVE CATS". We've had the pleasure of meeting the first of many lovely and awesome cats under the pilot cat ownership project in Chong Pang, and will continue to meet (and microchip) many other cats for the rest of the month.
Great work CWS! Here's to more happy collaborations for the good of our animal friends :)

Golden is a lovely girl who is eager and boisterous. This little darling can't keep still!

She may not be a puppy anymore, but she still has plenty of love to give! Are you ready for a lifetime commitment?

More on the Silky Terrier we found near the coffeeshop at Blk 603 Clementi West Street 1...
Our vet consultant had carefully removed the fur around her snout so she could better clean the area and reduce the chances of an infection. It was heartbreaking to see the extent of the injury inflicted on our little friend. We're treating her injuries the best we can, and she's recovering well despite everything she has gone through.
We had found a microchip in her and had checked with the relevan...

The way you move and behave makes all the difference in putting a fearful animal at ease.
- Let the animal decide whether or not to approach. Don’t restrain the animal and force it to accept contact.
- When facing the animal, always turn to the side. Facing them directly comes off as confrontational.
- It is perfectly fine to look at the animal, but make sure not to stare directly in its eyes. A direct stare is a threat in the animal kingdom (even we don’t like to be stared at!).

Wednesday's Adoption Spotlight: Pie Pie
Age: 4 months
Breed : Tabby/White
Holly deserves a great home to call her own and hasn't had the fortune of that so far. This lovely girl may be a little shy and reserved, but that's only because she's intimidated by the strange sights and sounds in our shelter. She would like to go to her forever home right now. Are you ready for a lifetime commitment to this lovely girl who still has years ahead of her and plenty of love to give?

This heart-wrenching case is just one of many that we encounter at the SPCA. We do our best in pursuing those who commit such callous acts, and hope to put an end to such gross cases of neglect/abuse.
This female Silky Terrier, around 3-5 years old, was found this morning at about 9am by a member of the public at the coffee shop of Blk 603, Clementi West St 1. She was found roaming around and had wounds on her muzzle area (which may have been caused by objects such as a rope or multiple rubbe...

Another child touches our heart with her generous act.
Ashley asked for a donation tin to be placed at her birthday party because she wanted to raise funds for the animals. Instead of asking for birthday presents, she asked her friends to come with donations for the animals instead. Her parents supported her wholeheartedly by helping her spread the word to family and friends. Even her grandparents who were overseas were involved in spreading the message!
Thank you dear Ashley. Children li...

Age: 3 months
Breed : Cross breed
Krabi is a lovely girl who will grow up tough and strong if she's treated well and given all the respect she deserves. She's got beautiful markings, but she wants a family who will look past that and provide for her when she's no longer small and cute. She needs a family who will see her as their own, and promise them forever. Are you that family?

We often receive calls informing us of pet owners leaving their pets in their cars while they're off running errands. Contrary to popular belief, it is not okay to leave your pet in the car, even if it's for a short while, and even if the window is slightly rolled down.
The temperature inside a stationary car can soar in just minutes, and increases exponentially as compared to the temperature outside the car. With their much smaller bodies, animals can sustain brain damage or even die from he...
