MOONLIGHTING AT THE SPCA:
Our staff often double as fosterers for our animals!
👦🏻😺 Meet Yao Huang (our Operations Manager) and his spunky furdaughter, Febe. But don’t be misled by her sparkling eyes – it wasn’t too long ago that she was treading the line between life and death.
Febe and two of her siblings were found at an air-conditioning compressor at Changi Air Base. At just two weeks old, it was them against the world as their mum had passed on. While her two siblings were c...

11th Aug 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Muffin’s owners came back to the SPCA looking for a furry companion for Muffin - here’s part 2 of their story!
“Shannon (one of the SPCA’s adoption volunteers) brought us around and introduced us to the sauce siblings, Dijon and Truffle. As we were only looking to adopt one friend, we decided to adopt Truffle. However, Truffle was still a little kitten at that time and she would cry at night as she was very close to her brother, Dijon, at SPCA. Thus, we went back to the SPCA for her bro...

4th Aug 2023, by SPCA Singapore
🐾 ADOPTION SPOTLIGHT 🐾
Peaky is our 7 years young local cat 🌨
Peaky came to us completely blind in both eyes. We found out that he was born with microphthalmia, which means he was born with smaller than average eyes. He later developed cataracts, causing him to lose his vision entirely.
His condition has not stopped him from being an active and adventurous cat. 🤸♀️ He loves walking around the shelter and showing affection towards the staff who cleans his cage and feeds him...

2nd Aug 2023, by SPCA Singapore
💡FOSTER SPOTLIGHT💡
Kai is our 14 year young Japanese Spitz. Kai was abandoned at a multi-storey carpark and was rescued by our officers. When assessed by our clinic, we found him to have poor dental health and an ear infection, rendering him deaf. We have reason to believe he must have been severely neglected before being abandoned.
He is currently being treated for his ear infection as well as his dental health.
He’s a tame and affectionate boy, who is really smiley when with hooman...

👒Creating a Safe Home for your Pet - Plants Edition!👒
Getting the right plants for your household is essential in creating a safe environment for your furry friends.
When we keep plants at home, it is common for our furries to chew on or dig into our plants. Ingesting toxic plants can cause medical and physical problems for your pets. Even brushing up against certain poisonous plants may put your pet at risk of getting poisoned.
Read on to learn more!

Muffin Was One Of The Longest-Staying Cats At Spca..
26th Jul 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Muffin was one of the longest-staying cats at SPCA before he found his new loving home. Here is his story 🏠❤️
Muffin's owners back then had no intentions to adopt a cat, and were looking to adopt rabbits instead. This changed when they stumbled across Muffin at SPCA. As they were looking around the shelter, Muffin stretched his hand out of the cage and grabbed the owner - something that he has never done before. They were so taken with Muffin's affection that they decided to bring him ba...

Meet Ah Girl, our 16 year old sweetheart who is currently looking for a foster. She is being treated for heartworm, a disease where her heart is clogged with worms and is unable to push out enough blood out to the rest of her body.
Our furries who have illnesses, just like Ah Girl, are often being stereotyped as having behavioural issues and being extremely sick. Ah Girl is the complete opposite of that, and is in fact really affectionate towards us hoomans here at the...

24th Jul 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Say hello to Hoku! 👒
Hoku👒 is our friendly 4 years young domestic long-haired cat who loves being active during playtime! When Hoku came to our care, both hind legs were already paralysed. Hoku had a wound on the genitalia, obstructing the ability to urinate properly and has made it impossible for us to determine Hoku's gender for sure. Hoku’s is enroute recovery but requires bladder expression once a day.
Despite all these challenges, Hoku👒 has a loving personality and loves the a...

17th Jul 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Kameko🐾 is our 1 year old, local tortoise shelled furry who came to us with suspected neurological issues and constipation. She is also currently facing a wobbly gait, which prevents her from being able to walk about properly. Her conditions have improved but we are still monitoring her bowel movement, as she needs to rely on long term lactulose to ensure smooth defecation.
Despite facing all these challenges, she remains sweet and affectionate towards the SPCA hoomans, and enjoys companion...

12th Jul 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Meowllo! My name is Kaminari, and I am a local black cat, who is 2 years young! 🐾
My favourite time of the day is when hoomans come visit me in the shelter. They would come in daily to refill my food and clean my litter box, and I would always show my gratitude by giving them head rubs.🤎 I would mew softly to get their attention, approach them slowly and rub against them asking for cuddles, and I loooove that they always give in to me. 🧏♀️
I had a neck injury recently and hav...

10th Jul 2023, by SPCA Singapore
Churru🥨 came to our clinic with a wound near her anus. After wound exploration and multiple checks, we realised that her actual anus was closed and that the current wound had become her new functioning anus. Part of the wound was a skin tissue that was hindering her ability to properly defecate.
We then surgically removed the skin tissue and kept her on long term lactulose to prevent constipation and ensure smooth defecation functions.
Churru's🥨 condition has improved tremendously over...
