SPCA Penang
Welcome to our November 2026 Newsletter!

 

 

Dear Members & Friends,

 

 

Good greetings to all and to our Hindu members and friends, we wish you a HAPPY DIWALI!

While we celebrate this joyous festivity with the display of fire crackers, we remind all pet owners to take extra care of pets. Please keep them indoors to avoid them becoming MISSING from their homes.

Our offer for neutering vouchers in conjunction with World Animal Day in October was not promising. Looks like pet owners in Penang can well afford the surgery and areconsiderate enough not to tax our neutering fund. We will use the fund more for cats brought in for our TNR programs.

Lately, we have been swarmed with more cats with their litters coming in. Our Isolation Care Unit is indeed filled up. We will need to allow the young kittens to be weaned from their queens before we can neuter them. Fosterers for young kittens are not so easy to find, as the kittens are very vulnerable and sometimes don’t make it. A few fosterers are disturbed by their emotions and are not wanting to go through the pain again. We understand the situation and always get them prepared before agreeing to participate in our fostering program. To avoid this overpopulation of cats, we continue to extend our offer for neutering vouchers to cat owners.

Adoptions

 

 

In October we had four cats adopted against the number of 38 animals brought in during that month. There are far more dogs and cats out there to be rescued/adopted and one could make a statement that they don’t need to visit shelters to adopt. Most who visited us will come share and say that theirs was a rescued animal from the street! We thank them for getting the strays off the street.

 


 

     

Happenings

 

 

We are always open to MNCs requiring CSR service for employees. Their volunteerism to the society means a lot to us especially with the animals. We also note that it is pleasing for the volunteers especially when there is a change of environment. From their smiles and laughter while working with the animals, we can be sure that they had great fun from the photos shared!

 

Here's some photos from the Motorola staff visit:
