SPCA to the rescue!
Our Animal Support Officers received a call on the morning of Labour Day, about a pair of pigeons being seen to be stuck to the rooftop fencing of a block of flats at Circuit Road.
Our Junior Inspectors arrived at the scene to find the 2 pigeons both entangled, in what seemed to be a kite string, and being hung upside down as a result. After cutting away the string restricting the pigeons from their freedom of flight, the pigeons were then brought back to SPCA for a vet check. After checking that they are physically free from injuries, it was there that they were released and took to the skies again!
On a related note regarding the occasion today being Vesak Day, we would like to gently remind all NOT to release any animal/bird into our public parks, reservoirs, nature reserves and/or other places (as typically is done as a symbolic gesture on Vesak Day). It is one thing to release animals to save their lives (in the case here of the rescued pigeons), but another to release pets into the open which actually is pet abandonment!
