19th Sep 2018, by SPCA Singapore
FOSTER FEATURE: GLUE TRAP KITTEN
On 24 August 2018, SPCA received a call from a kind member of public who found a sickly-looking kitten in Woodlands. Our Animal Rescue Officer brought the kitten back to SPCA for further examination and treatment. The kitten was only about one month old, and most probably got himself stuck in a glue trap as his fur was extremely sticky. As this kitten was very young, we needed to reach out to fosterers who would be willing to give this kitten a home environment ...

Two Is Not Better Than One. Hamsters Make Great Pe..
17th Sep 2018, by SPCA Singapore
TWO IS NOT BETTER THAN ONE!
Hamsters make great pets, but having more than one in the same cage is one too many. As hamsters are prolific breeders, a female hamster can give birth to 6 to 10 babies at a go. These babies will then grow to start breeding from just six weeks old!
As our shelter constantly receives unwanted hamsters due to overbreeding, we urge for owners to please separate your hamsters. You should only keep one per cage as they are solitary animals and are happy to be alone.

A SOFT SPOT FOR TOFU
In May 2018, SPCA received a call from a kind member of public who found a small white dog bleeding from an open wound, where the tail was supposed to be. The wound was also rotting badly.
The dog, later named Tofu, was then brought to SPCA where he underwent medical treatment. Even though he was in a lot of pain, he was always friendly and loving towards our staff. One of SPCA’s staff fostered him while he was recuperating from surgery. Tofu was fostered for three month...

10th Sep 2018, by SPCA Singapore
I AM A SMART RABBIT!
Did you know that rabbits can be litter-trained? Being intelligent animals, rabbits will naturally choose one or a few spots or corners to relieve themselves.
To litter-train your rabbit, you will first need to limit the area where your rabbit roams. Identify the spot where your rabbit usually relieves itself and place the litter box there. You can use more than one litter box to train your rabbit. If your rabbit urinates out of the box, do move it to the area until it ge...

LITTLE ANIMAL AMBASSADORS
We are thrilled to have had the Primary 2 students of Teck Ghee Primary School begin their journey as little animal ambassadors for responsible pet ownership!
We were invited to share cases that SPCA received, educate them on what they can do to help, and the proper way to care for animals. After hearing the talk, the students set up booths in their respective classrooms and decorated them using animal origami. They also prepared songs, pledges and speeches to spread ...

FALSE MESSAGE ABOUT TWO PUPPIES CIRCULATING ON SOCIAL MEDIA
It has been brought to our attention that there is a message circulating on WhatsApp about two puppies at "SPCA" that are to be put down.
We would like to clarify that SPCA Singapore does not have the two puppies and that the photo of the puppies in a clinic was not taken at SPCA Singapore. We have since verified that the post originated from Malaysia, and that the puppies have been adopted.
The SPCA does not put down healthy animals...

CATS LIKE TO MOVE IT, MOVE IT
To keep your pets healthy, you have to ensure they get a sufficient amount of exercise every day.
But how do you let your cat exercise?
It is recommended you engage your cat for 10 to 15 minutes several times a day. To awaken your cat’s natural instinct for play, you can utilise pet toys such as battery-operated mice, feathered toys, a simple strand of string, or even a DIY ball made with a toilet roll. It is beneficial to engage your cat in such activities as...

Randy, The Fortunate One
Randy the rabbit is a perfect example of how love and patience can change the lives of animals!
When Randy was first brought to our shelter, he was apprehensive and averse to human touch. It took a lot of patience from staff and volunteers to let him get used to human contact. Considering his personality quirks, we were overjoyed when a family took to him after spending some time together. Interested to find out how mischievous he is at home now? Read the full story he...
