I don't buy pets but became a pet owner because a stray puppy came into my home in 9 July 2010 and I didn't have the heart to shoo her out. About 6 months later, a Labrador mix followed me home begging for help. And that's how my interest in animal welfare spiked to the point that I've helped to rescue, rehabilitate, rehome and foster furkids. As an indie rescuer, I strongly advocate Care, Neuter, Return/Rehome, Manage (CNRM) to humanely control the community stray population.


My credentials:
- Implemented CNRM program in my neighbourhood with the spaying/neutering of 32 cats and 1 dog (as at 8 October 2015).
- Rehomed 7 cats, 44 kittens, 14 pups, 31 dogs & 1 tortoise (as at 8 October 2015).
- Received a Certificate of Appreciation from my neighbourhood's Residents’ Association (RA) on 13 June 2014 for my work as a RA Committee Member 2012/2014 when I actively promoted CNRM.
- Volunteer administrator for a FB group for pet adoption supporting independent rescuers on behalf of a NGO from 28 May 2011 to 31 October 2016. The adoption FB group helped 260 indie rescuers with their 510 pups, 113 dogs, 67 kittens & 21 cats previously listed on the page being successfully adopted.
- Received the ‘Iconic Award on Neutering Program’ during the Universiti Malaya's Animal Awareness Day on 18 March 2014.
- Winner for PetFinder.my/DiGi's DoGood Challenge in May 2015 for "actively promoting pets for adoption, saving precious lives and improving animal welfare in Malaysia".
