REMEMBERING GALAXY, OUR SHINING STAR
We are sad and heartbroken to share that, Galaxy, who was featured in our viral #WhatTheFluff campaign video, passed away last Thursday due to health complications.
Galaxy was abandoned under a tree outside SPCA earlier this year. We took him in and after undergoing several medical checks, he was diagnosed with chronic kidney disease. He was prescribed medication to clear an infection, and his diet was adjusted to prevent deterioration of his kidneys. With love and care from our staff, his condition significantly improved, despite being a senior dog with long-term health issues.
There was a foster arrangement made for him but unfortunately, it was not successful due to his medical condition. We took him back and continued to care for him. Recently, our staff members noticed that he had suddenly stopped eating and seemed weak. He was brought in to our clinic on Thursday morning for emergency treatment but passed away later in the afternoon. He was in the company of staff members who had loved and cared for him during his stay at SPCA.

A PET IS FOR LIFE
Before getting a pet, do ensure that you are financially ready to commit to having a pet and paying for its food, supplies, and medical fees. Through the good and the bad, as much as your pet has been there for you, you have the responsibility as a pet owner to be there for it too. Pet abandonment should never be an option.
*Under the Animals and Birds Act, anyone who is found guilty of cruelty to animals, including abandonment of any animal, can be imprisoned for up to 18 months, fined up to $15,000, or both.
