0% GST - What a relief for organizations like ours!
It was indeed a relief to organizations like ours when the 0% GST sets in as of June. At least we can save some monies on our monthly expenditures to fight the ever increasing cost of drugs, food, etc purchased to maintain the animals under our care.
With a blink of an eye, we are almost past half the year of 2018. We are now preparing the release of our 10th Anniversary SPCA Calendar and the Founding Team will be designing the special edition for year 2019. We still have a few sponsored calendar pages to go. Should you wish to sponsor, kindly email us on info@spca-penang.net and we will send you details. Without obligation, this will be carried out on a first come first served basis.

Highlight on Adoption |
|
|---|---|
|
Our adoptions in May saw an increase. We had 7 dogs and 2 kittens who found caring homes. In comparison to that, we also receive more unwanted and abandoned cats and dogs. On one particular day when we saw one animal adopted we had eight brought in. We thought we will be relieved with one empty kennel space, but yet we need to crack our heads on trying to house the extras. We are happy to say 'goodbye' to those leaving our shelter for their new homes. We are happy to note that Taxco the abandoned 5 year old Shih Tzu was found a new home after spending 5 months with us. Also, while with us, he had undergone a surgery on his left eye.

|---|---|

We thank all the well-wishers for fulfilling our request for donations of rice and dog food. We are always in need of donations in cash and in kind. Whenever you have in mind for charity, do please give us a call to consult our officers and find out our needs. We really appreciate that. Help spread the news to encourage your friends and relatives to create awareness on the many animals waiting to be homed. Help spread the news to encourage pet owners to neuter their pets to avoid abandonment of animals.
From SPCA TEAM and Furry Friends, we say Thank You.
