SPCA Penang
Welcome to our June 2024 Newsletter!

 

 

Dear Members & Friends,

 

 

Good greetings to all!

It puzzles us sometimes when animals are brought in by the public who claim the animal was dumped by unknown irresponsible pet owners outside their doorstep. Why would they want to do that? Are we to believe their story, or do they not want to admit that it is their own pet? Maybe it's just because they want to escape paying the fees etc for surrendering their pet. Very often, we do give the benefit of the doubt – it's hard to prove otherwise. Whatever the reason, shelters need to survive. Any offer to donate in the form of cash or kind helps. If you are in doubt on how to support, then do enquire direct (email info@spca-penang.net or call 04 2816559) and/or perhaps visit the shelter and get to know our needs.

 

 

Don't abandon your pet - they are family.

 

Adoptions

 

 

In May six cats and five dogs found homes.

 


 

     

Happenings

 

 

Community Service & Educational Talks

We thank the various groups of students from Inti College who chose SPCA as their base for performing their community service and to the group Five Frenemies fundraising activities Bake and Sell at the college.

 

By invitation from Brain Activation, a centre for students who are mostly Autism spectrum, ADHD, speech delay and learning disability, SPCA brought 2 perfect matches Clove & Pearl and gave the students a good exposure to animals. The students together with some of their teachers interacted excitedly with our animals.

 

Both Clove and Pearl integrated well with the students. Both were exceptionally calm and enjoyed the company of the teachers and students.

 

Aimst Biotechnology Student Association(ABSA) in Kedah organised a 2 day donation campaign at their college. A sum of RM627.75 was raised. Our grateful thanks to the students for their initiative. Below the items made by the students for fundraising and return of the donation box.
