Stop Animal Abuse: End the Chain of Violence
Research studies have shown that there is a strong connection between animal cruelty and violence towards people. When a person abuses an animal, there is also the chance that they will abuse a human in their lifetime.
Help the SPCA STOP ANIMAL ABUSE now, by spreading the word that animal abuse is not acceptable in our society. Any offender convicted of cruelty to animals, can be fined up to $15,000 or jailed for up to a year and a half, or bot...

We thank all concerned members of the public for alerting us to a case of dogs observed to be in the sun, at Raffles Place MRT Station, earlier today (March 23). The dogs were seen to be part of a booth associated with a PropNex outdoor advertisement.
We share your concerns and have sent our investigating team to the scene. We did find the weather to be hot and sunny and thus unfavourable for any live animal to be at the scene.
Do rest assured that the dogs have all been cleared from the sce...

SPCA Presents:
"The Rescue Saga of Farrer Park MRT Kitty"
Just about a week ago, we were alerted to a cat observed stranded on a ledge at Farrer Park MRT Station (See picture.)
The cat, a male local tabby, was seen walking along the ledge quite comfortably but tended to retreat into a hole (leading to a false ceiling there), whenever he was called out to by passers-by below on the ground floor.
Our rescue team, upon arrival, tried to get near the cat, but each time it would retreat into the...

A Blind Cat No One Wanted Changed This Man's Life
19th Mar 2015, by SPCA Singapore
Time and again, older animals are more often left to languish in shelters, and overlooked in favour of their younger counterparts.
A blind, senior cat in Ireland was similarly passed over again and again, until she was adopted - one fateful day. Not only was her life changed, so was her adopter's, indeed another heartwarming tail, ermm tale, of how senior animals can bring untold happiness and meaning to their human companions.
We urge prospective adopters seeking out that special "friend for...

On 28 February 2015, we visited Anderson Primary School’s Green Activists group (G.A.I.A.) who had raised a total of $583.15 for the animal welfare cause.
We are as thankful for their kind donations, as we are for their dynamism and alignment with the animal welfare cause. The budding animal lovers were delighted to learn how they, as future changemakers, can make a difference to the animal community. Way to go, our young stalwarts!
