A Pet Is For Life Not Just A Season. The Festive S..
1st Feb 2019, by SPCA Singapore
A PET IS FOR LIFE – NOT JUST A SEASON
The festive season is a busy period for our shelter. There is usually an influx of owners who want to surrender their pets before the holidays. Over the past few months, there has been an estimated 50% increase in such requests.
During the festive season, it is easy to get caught up in the festivities and make an impulse decision to get a pet. As a result, some are not truly aware of the time and financial commitment involved when it comes to being a pet...

1st Feb 2019, by SPCA Singapore
PARTY OF THREE
These triplets, consisting of two males and a female, were found abandoned on a road. A kind caller spotted them and immediately called us for help. Our Animal Rescue Officer brought them back to the SPCA clinic for a health check. The veterinary team decided it would be best for the kittens to be fostered first, in order to regain their strength.
We appealed to our fosterers for help and one of our regular fosterers, Pearl, decided to take the kittens in. Here is an account of ...

ADOPTION APPEAL: MAISE THE CROSS-PINSCHER
In September 2018, we received a call from a concerned member of public who found a small-breed dog wandering around a carpark in Ang Mo Kio. It looked to be lost and had an injury on its neck.
After an initial medical check at SPCA’s clinic, the vet team saw that his eyes were in a bad condition. They were crusty, cloudy and ulcerated. The vet deduced that his eyesight had deteriorated due to prolonged dry eyes, which had likely gone without treatme...

Chinchillas As Pets. Chinchillas Are Commonly Foun..
14th Jan 2019, by SPCA Singapore
CHINCHILLAS AS PETS
Chinchillas are commonly found in the Andes Mountains of South America, where the climate is cool and dry. Their fur is dense enough to keep them warm, and they are sought after because of their adorable appearance and luxurious-feeling fur.
The SPCA does not encourage the keeping of chinchillas as pets, as our hot and humid tropical weather can be harmful or even deadly for the animal. To combat the heat, owners must keep the living conditions cool and dry, controlled to a...

MERRY MOCHI & A HAPPY NEW YEAR
We are always happy to receive updates from pet owners who adopted their pets from us. One of our favourite type of stories is when adopters contact us to share that they have moved out of the country, and their adopted pet is now living a happy and healthy life overseas as well!
During Christmas last year, we received a generous donation from an adopter who shared about a dog he and his wife adopted from SPCA a decade ago. When they had to move overseas, they br...

BENJI JR IS LOOKING FOR A FOSTER HOME!
Benji Jr has been with the SPCA since March 2017. He has unfortunately been having some musculoskeletal problems and requires surgery.
We are looking for a fosterer to care for Benji Jr for 2 to 4 weeks after his surgery to help keep his surgical wound clean and dry, and to keep him confined in a quiet environment. He is not recommended for families with young children or pets, as he does not do well with other animals.
If you are interested in foster...

GRADUATING CLASS OF 2018
At SPCA, we have more than a thousand animals going in and out of our doors every year. A small population of these animals end up becoming long-term residents in our shelter because they are unable to find a fur-ever home of their own. The duration of their stay can even extend beyond five years.
With gorgeous personalities and a bit of luck and pixie dust, eight of these patient and adorable animals managed to find a fur-ever home with loving owners this year.

SHOP & DONATE WITH FAIRPRICE ON
Two weeks ago, we shared about how NTUC FairPrice listed SPCA Singapore as a selected charity for their donation drive. We then reached out to our supporters who would like to make a donation for the festive season. Right before Christmas Eve, we received a surprise visit from the people of Fairprice On with three vans’ worth of donated pet food and household items!
We were extremely touched to see the generous amount of supplies we need for the shelter pour i...
