APPEAL FOR INFORMATION / WITNESSES
- Injured Cat (with broken bone) at Block 667C, JURONG WEST St 65, alleged to have been thrown down 4 floors
On 18th September 2014 (Thurs) between 6.10pm and 6.20pm, this cat (named Shiro) that went missing the previous day was found by its owner. It was found at the foot of the loading bay on the ground floor, bleeding on its leg and mouth. It was reported by a passer-by to have been thrown down from the fourth floor. The culprit could be neither seen nor identified.
The owners family posted notices appealing for witnesses around the neighbourhood, but these notices got removed subsequently.
The cat was taken to a vet clinic, shortly after it was found in that condition.
Upon closer examination, the cat was found to have sustained a broken bone.
The cat is currently under the care of the vet team in the clinic. The cat is recuperating, and its condition is presently stable.
We believe the cats earlier condition to be due to the cruel act done by a person as the cats physical injuries clearly appear to be wilfully inflicted.
We are appealing to the public for any information or witnesses who may be able to identify the culprit(s) responsible so that necessary action can be taken against them. If you can help, please call the SPCA at 6287 5355 ext 9 (any time) and/or e-mail the Cat Welfare Society at info@catwelfare.org.
In Singapore, cruelty to animals is a crime. Under the Animals and Birds Act, anyone who is found guilty of such an offence including abandonment of any animal, can be imprisoned for up to 12 months, fined up to S$10,000, or both.
(We thank our informer and also the cat’s owner for alerting the Cat Welfare Society (CWS) and us to this.)
