ADOPTION APPEAL: MOOKU THE HUSKY
In September, we received a call from a concerned member of public who found a sickly and weak dog wandering around a construction site. Fearing for the dog’s safety in such a dangerous area, our rescue officers went to pick her up and brought her back to our clinic.
The dog was given a medical check by our vet team. They realised she has cataracts in both eyes, which affects her eyesight, and is possibly blind in her right eye. She is microchipped b...

A PET IS FOR LIFE – NOT JUST A SEASON
Recently, we have received a surge of requests – both from potential adopters who want to get an animal as a gift for their loved ones and from owners who want to surrender their pets to us. These pets are being cleared out of their homes just like old furniture, because the owners do not have time for them anymore.
Hence, if you are thinking of giving a pet as a gift this season, please think twice.
Before taking the leap, consider this for yoursel...

REUNITED, & IT FEELS SO GOOD
At SPCA, we encounter many cases and stories every day. One of our favourite stories has to be when lost pets are reunited with their owners.

With the power of social media, the dog’s family found out that their dog was at SPCA and rushed to...

How Big Can You Grow?. Terrapins Are Commonly Seen..
10th Dec 2018, by SPCA Singapore
HOW BIG CAN YOU GROW?
Terrapins are commonly seen and kept as pets in Singapore. Due to their initial tiny stature and low cost, they are often bought on impulse. However, not many know that they can grow up to 12 inches, which is a size of a dinner plate.
Terrapins have a long lifespan of 20 to 50 years, which makes taking care of them is a long-term commitment. We constantly share that pet is a lifetime commitment, so do think twice before getting one.

The cat was brought back to our clinic for a medical check. She was named Chanel as she kept her classic charm despite her medical condition.
