Flood Aid: Temerloh (7 Jan 2015)

Our team of 6 staff from SPCA Selangor included a vet and vet assistant. We traveled in 2 vehicles, and met with a staff from DVS Temerloh at their office where we had set up a satellite aid centre. We then split into two groups (3 staff per group) to cover different areas, each group being led by a DVS team.

On this aid trip, we distributed food and provided treatment/medication for more than 70 cats/kittens, 11 rabbits, and several dogs/puppies. Livestock food aid and treatment is being handled by the DVS officers.

Areas covered included Kampung Baru Bintang, Kampung Badok, Kampung Teluk Sentang, Temerloh R & R, Kampung Gajah Mati, Kampung Tebal, Kampung Paya Jauh, Kampung Paya Luas, and Kampung Padang Tenggala.

Highlights:

� We have established an aid centre in DVS Temerloh, where food and supplies will be distributed from.

� The DVS has a list of pet owners who have sought treatment with them before, they will call and check on them this week.

� Most residents are animal lovers, and they have been trying their best to feed the animals roaming around.

We met so many owners and caregivers that we ran out of food and animal first aid kits, we are packing more for our next trip!

Thank you to everyone for your contributions – funds, food, medication, cages, and more! A special thanks to the very dedicated and helpful staff at DVS Temerloh, we couldn’t have accessed these areas/animals/pet owners without your help!

We also lobby the Government and local municipals for humane treatment of animals and harsher penalities for perpetrators of crimes against animals. Founded in 1958, SPCA is a well-respected and trusted Non-Profit Organisation. Over the years, the organisation has gained tremendous goodwill, recognition and support from animal lovers all over Malaysia
