Even a little change would do you good. Especially when it is for a good cause.
Ever wondered how you could make good use of all that spare change, after clearing out your pockets? How about leaving them in a tin? Not just about any tin, but one that is full of heart.
We are excited to announce our Furry Friends Fund 2015. We warmly invite you to take one of our donation tins, for a period of three months, to drop your spare change in. Do encourage your friends and colleagues to do the same. ...

You can't buy love, but you can adopt it from our shelter.
Here's one for the guinea pigs, hamsters and rabbits!
We've got hamsters, guinea pigs and rabbits that will add ears/years (whichever works!) of meaning to your lifetime ahead.
If you're ready for your forever furry, adopt, don't buy!
After all, whoever said money can't buy happiness probably never paid any adoption fee.

Weekly Education Tip: Let your cats scratch!
The SPCA is against the declawing of cats, viewing it as unnecessary and inhumane. Scratching is perfectly natural and normal feline behaviour which helps a cat condition and sharpen its claws, as well as sheds the older layers of nails, keeping the claws clean and smooth. It would be practical and necessary to provide your cat with a few scratching posts in your household (which are also generally not too costly).
A scratching post is not a mere ...

All dogs, big and small, need regular exercise, even if they have a large compound to play in. Daily walks are great for your dog’s physical and mental well being. Having a restless dog cooped up in a small space all day long could also result in behavioural problems like excessive barking.
Over here at the SPCA shelter, our team of dog walkers can be seen just about every morning (except for Sundays) each with a shelter dog in tow, taking the dogs on their regular walks in the vicinity of t...

As we usher in the Year of the Goat, certain places have reportedly asked for live goats to grace their Lunar New Year events, in a bid to add to the festive mood. (See today's (15 Feb 2015) article in The Sunday Times' Life, page 4)
We thank the Sunday Times for printing our stand, on this practice, as follows:
"The SPCA does not subscribe to the idea of farm animals - like live goats - being transported in the heat, and brought to crowded or noisy places for the purpose of display and clos...

Just last evening (10 Feb), we rescued a cat that was found to be caught between the pipes and wall of an apartment block in Bedok. The distressed cat was observed to have been in that state for some time.
Our rescue officer, Dilun, then attempted to free the cat from its predicament by carefully manoeuvring its head and front limbs to be extricated, followed by its posterior, out of the narrow spaces.
(As the cat was suitably obliging, it was quite easily pried free. It was found to be phy...
