December month was not promising! We only had six adoptions and that ended the year with 109 adoptions.

With relaxation of the movement control, the comeback from the various schools, colleges, universities and organizations for their community service & CSR programs was very much needed and welcome! However, we are still careful with the number of intakes at any one time. We thank all who have participated in the past year. Your participation has touched and changed the lives of our paw friends at the shelter!

Once in a while, we do get complaints from the public where pet owners leave their dog or cat behind in their cars while running errands etc. This can stress the pet as well as passers-by and the authorities concerned will be called in to take action.

Chinese New Year is around the corner. We are taking orders for CNY cookies and cakes as a means of fundraising for the shelter. Kindly call or email us your orders.

As Year 2023 is the Year of the Rabbit, there are those who believe in Feng Shui may be advised or attracted to keep rabbits as their pet. A gentle reminder to all rabbit lovers: though the lifespan of rabbit is much shorter than dogs and cats, please know your responsibility before engaging into keeping one. Do consider your lifestyle as they need your time too. Do read more about keeping of rabbits before you engage into keeping one.
