The weather has been hot and you can see animals hiding from the sun and chilling in the shady comfort of our estates. On the 25th of August we received a call Blk 484D Choa Chu Kang about a tabby that thought it would be a good idea to sit himself on an air condition compressor three storeys up and just enjoy the breeze. Little does he know that it is easy to go up there but harrowing to get down again. Our officers managed to get him off the compressor and released him nearby. Watch this video...

Row Roohhh!!
Farrah is such a silly little cutie. She simply loves her belly rubs and she loves them so much that she plops herself on the floor, ears pinned back and enjoys it. You can see here she is so fond of bellyrubs that her eyes are dilated and she wears the grin from ear to ear.
Every animals have their little quirks and likes, so the question this T.G.I.Friday is: What are the silly little oddball quirks that your pet has?

Guinea pigs are often associated with hamsters and sometimes they are known as “large hamsters”. Therefore, there are often misconceptions about guinea pigs due to this association.
Please do not buy a giant exercise wheel for your guinea pig. Unlike hamsters, the bodies of guinea pigs are not designed to support the stress caused by running on an exercise wheel. Prolong use of exercise wheels can cause serious spinal injuries for your guinea pigs! Remember this, never get an exercise wh...

What a lovely time we had in the north of Singapore today. We were there to create awareness with the lower secondary pupils of Yishun Town Secondary. At the end of the session, we were presented with a cheque for $600 from the class of 4N1.
The students raised the money by making home–made ice pops and at the same time carried out a donation drive and distributed flyers to all the classes to spread the message of preventing animal abuse and caring for pets. Three cheers to the students of...

When we see chubby pooches, our first reaction is usually “Oh so cute!” Yet, underneath the layers of fats and furry cuteness, there lies many different health problems that are associated with obesity in dogs. Some of the health problems that your dog may develop because of its weight are painful arthritis, heart disease, breathing difficulty, diabetes and even bladder cancer. Needless to say, obesity in dogs is a problem that needs to be tackled so that it will not impede on their lifestyl...
