Adopter Needed Urgently For Newborn Kitten (Azella Natasia’s) 23rd Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Updates at 8.50pm: Blanket is with Megaa now and Megaa says she looks very healthy. Thanks, Megaa!
Updates at 4.40pm: Azella managed to feed the kitten 1cc of milk and the kitten open its eyes! It’s not a newborn, after all, and that’s a relief as it would be easier to foster. She’s probably a female, being Calico. Azella has named her “Blanket”. Etta’s fosterer will look after Blanket until another adopter can be found; otherwise, Blanket can stay on with her...

The SPCA is saddened to learn of the death of Wen Wen the dolphin. Destined for Resorts World Sentosa (RWS), 10-year-old Wen Wen died on his flight to Singapore from the Philippines.

Updates On 23rd Nov 2012 23rd Nov 2012, by SPCA Singapore
We thank everyone who has been concerned for the dog found in the cardboard box on Monday. For what he has gone through, he is doing fine at this time. Though frail, he's eating, pee-ing and poo-ing well. He had a bath, and yesterday afternoon got a well-deserved grooming to get rid of all of his matted fur. We'll be passing him on to his fosterer asap so he can get some well-needed and deserved TLC.

Here are happy updates from Lydia:
Hi Kah Yein,
Max is doing well and just zipping around keeping really busy playing with his toys and friends. He is so clever and interactive and has learnt very quicky to “Fetch”!!
His last visit to the vet on Mon showed even more improvements on his blood test although his red blood cell count, haemoglobin and PCV are still below normal levels so we are continuing his antibiotics for another two weeks to make it a month in total. The vet was v...

Save The World's Saddest Dolphins 22nd Nov 2012, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Rest in peace Wen Wen, one of the wild-caught dolphins held in captivity by RWS... Please help to share this.
ACRES regrets that RWS has continued to ignore our concerns about the welfare of the dolphins and we are saddened by the loss of yet another dolphin. Wen Wen was born in the wild, lived six years free in the wild, and it is tragic that he died in captivity far from home.
We urge RWS to do the right thing and work with ACRES and Earth Island Institute to rehabilitate and release the rem...

Updates On 21st Nov 2012 21st Nov 2012, by The Great Animal Rescue Chase
Today we are thankful for all the everyday heroes among us.
Recently an elderly woman in Illinois began feeding two stray dogs. Although she couldn't catch them, she tried to be sure they wouldn't starve.
Then one day, tragedy struck and the littlest dog ran into the road at the wrong moment. With more determination than ever, the woman was able to lure the surviving dog into her garage with food. She called in Ed Kostro, a seasoned rescuer, and he arrived to find more than he expected...

No More Publicising For Fosterers, Only For Adoptions 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Effective today, please be informed that we will no longer be able to publicise for fostering unless it is for our sponsored animals. We will, however, still publicise for adoptions.
The reason is, we can take full responsibility for our sponsored animals, but we cannot do the same for the animals of other rescuers.
Off and on, we encounter cases where some rescuers who ask for fostering help through us do not honour their word of taking back the animals after the agreed period of time. We have ...

Something To Share From The VSS Newsletter – Why Love One But Eat The Other? 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
It’s thanksgiving soon for the westerners and the demand for the poor turkey will heighten. It’s like just over here – when it’s Chinese New Year season, the slaughterhouses go on full swing.
Here is something from the VSS below and there is a link to the PETA message too. Take a look and maybe we could make one for Chinese New Year, eh?
Our message has always been a moderate (hopefully, non-offensive) one: Please let’s eat LESS meat.
From the VSS: http://www.veget...
