2nd May 2024, by SPCA Singapore
MAN WHO LEFT 43 CATS WITH NO FOOD AND WATER GETS 20 DAYS JAIL
Last week, a 31-year-old man was found guilty of neglecting 43 cats in an empty flat. Sadly, two of the cats had perished, while the remaining 41 were found in dire condition, suffering from problems such as alopecia and ringworm. These poor animals were left without food, water, ventilation and were surrounded by filth like faeces, urine, and the decomposing bodies of their two friends.
For many of us, it is challenging to see how ...

29th Apr 2024, by SPCA Singapore
✨ Happy (Belated) World Veterinary Day! 🐾
Though we are a couple of days late, we believe our veterinary team at the SPCA’s Community Animal Clinic deserve to be celebrated every day!
A recent study by Boehringer Ingelheim revealed that only 49% of veterinary staff believe their profession is appreciated. Let’s change that narrative together.
Each year, the SPCA’s veterinary team performs over 1,800 surgeries and carries out more than 11,000 consultations, serving shelter and commu...

19th Apr 2024, by SPCA Singapore
Last week, we shared our concerns about the lack of stricter regulations on shock collars in Singapore. So many of you stood with us and agree that aversive training tools like shock collars have no place in training.
Here is a powerful reminder: If the toughest can’t take it, our animals shouldn’t have to either.

🌈RUN FREE, MISSY🌈
Missy, our gentle girl, loved and lost on 15 April 2024.
Missy first came to the SPCA in 2019, at the age of 5, after which she was adopted but surrendered again in 2023 due to health problems beyond her adopter’s capacity for care. By then, Missy was a senior at 9 years old. She had undergone surgery twice, once to remove mammary tumours and later to repair her pelvic bone after a car accident. The accident also damaged her nerves and bladder control. Missy’s urine...

9th Apr 2024, by SPCA Singapore
In a recent announcement, it was revealed that the NParks will not impose restrictions or regulations on the use of shock collars. Instead, they will introduce guidelines aimed at raising awareness of the potential risks involved in utilising these devices. The SPCA is deeply dismayed by this decision.
There is growing scientific evidence that demonstrates the harmful and counterproductive nature of aversive training methods. Several countries, including the UK, have banned the use of shock col...

4th Apr 2024, by SPCA Singapore
Ryoka came into the SPCA at just 2 months old in November 2023 -- her nails were overgrown and she had infected, crusty skin. Shortly after, she tested positive for mange (skin disease caused by parasitic mites), ringworm, and parvovirus which can be fatal in kittens. Through daily antifungal treatments, medicated baths, and a prescription diet to treat her parvo-related diarrhoea, she has transformed into an alert and playful kitty, with significant improvements in her health.
Now adopted, Ryo...

The SPCA, alongside Little Hammy Rescue Singapore and Hamster Society Singapore, attended to a hoarding situation and rescued 48 hamsters.
