21st Jan 2017, by SPCA Singapore

If you are interested to adopt Laurel, please do pay her a visit and have a chat with our adoption counsellors, to find out more about this chill girl.

19th Jan 2017, by SPCA Singapore

MAN'S BEST FRIEND DESERVES BETTER We wrote in to The Straits Times Forum section, in response to Ms Stephanie Patricia Ngo’s letter; “Raise awareness that chaining, caging dogs for long periods is cruel.” http://www.straitstimes.com/forum/letters-in-print /raise-awareness-that-chaining-caging-dogs-for-lon g-periods-is-cruel The practice of chaining or caging dogs for long periods, is unfortunately common in Singapore.

SPRING CLEANING DOES NOT MEAN DECLUTTERING OF YOUR PETS With just two weeks to the Lunar New Year and as we busy ourselves with spring cleaning, we would like to take the opportunity to remind that cleaning up does not mean getting rid of the family pet. Pets are sentient beings and they rely on us for their needs. When we decide to include an animal to the family, it is up to us to provide them with the lifelong care that they require, even in their old age and when they are sick. They ar...

Adoption Spotlight - Spring And Summer

ADOPTION SPOTLIGHT - SPRING AND SUMMER Spring and Summer were rescued in August 2016 at Pasir Panjang Terminal, when they were just a few days young.

The ST Guide To... Adopting A Pet
13th Jan 2017, by SPCA Singapore

ADOPT, DON'T BUY We take in around 200 animals each month and receives calls every day from pet owners wanting to give up their pets. Many of these animals are victims of impulse buying – their owners did not fully consider the lifetime commitment that goes into responsible pet ownership. The arrival of a pet changes the dynamics of a household considerably and for years. Someone has to take responsibility for their daily needs - feeding, exercise, health care and grooming amongst other ...

What do black cats have to do with Friday the 13th? Nothing at all! Black cats have been associated with a witch’s brew of superstition, and society’s portrayal of black cats as unlucky or evil, makes it even more challenging for them to be adopted. It’s time to meow out of the dark ages. The only bad luck following cats is people’s superstitions. Here are some of our lovely black coat animals that are waiting for a second chance, to go home with you. Cleo is a sweet girl of abou...

ABANDONMENT IS A CRIME These days, there are a number of avenues to find a home for a pet, if one is unable to care for it due to extenuating circumstances. Abandonment should never be an option. Unfortunately, it seems like this chinchilla’s owner chose just that. This lovely creature was left in a cage at Block 570 Choa Chu Kang Street 52 late last year. We referred the case to the authorities as there were CCTVs in the vicinity. Investigations are ongoing. Chinchillas are not easy pets ...

2016 - IT’S A WRAP Dear Supporters 2016 was a big year for the SPCA. In January, we vacated our home at Mount Vernon to usher in a new era of the SPCA in Sungei Tengah.

It has been wonderful seeing our dogs enjoy the large runs, playing and running around with staff and volunteers. Our Inspectorate has be...

OUR YEAR IN REVIEW – ADVOCACY AND EDUCATION We continue to raise awareness on animal welfare issues that affect all creatures great and small. This year, we advocated for wild animals to be kept wild, where they belong. Wild animals have special needs and it is difficult to keep them healthy and alive in captivity. Despite it being illegal, wild animals are still being kept as pets in Singapore. From turtles and tortoises on the restricted list, to various lizards and snakes, sugar gliders...
