21st Apr 2025, by SPCA Singapore
HAPPY TAILS: MIKA
Mika was adopted as a puppy, but at just one and a half years old, she was returned to the SPCA. Her owners said they were moving overseas. They also mentioned complaints from neighbours.
Even so, Mika remained incredibly loving and open. She trusted easily and always leaned in for cuddles. When she went off to her first foster home (in view of adoption), we were hopeful. But not long after, she was returned, again, because of neighbour complaints.
We made a big deal of Mi...

Animal Smuggling A Trade Built On Suffering. Smugg..

Animal Smuggling: A trade built on suffering
Smuggled animals are treated as commodities, crammed into hidden spaces without food, water, or care. Many suffer in silence, and some never make it out alive.
Sadly, smugglers value profit over animal lives. Buyers who fuel this trade are just as responsible, enabling a system rooted in neglect, exploitation, and a complete disregard for life. Every animal smuggled is a victim of cruelty and greed.
The best way to break this cycle is to cut off d...

19th Mar 2025, by SPCA Singapore
On 30 November 2024, the SPCA received a call about a cat found near a rubbish chute, sitting in his own urine and unable to move. When he arrived at the SPCA, 12-year-old Liam was weak and dehydrated. Before our vet could complete his examination, he experienced a seizure and nearly became laterally recumbent (laying on his side, unresponsive). Our team was worried that he would not make it.
However, they acted quickly — administering anti-seizure medication, placing him on IV fluids to stab...

Pet Cafs Yea Or Nay?. Pet Cafs May Seem Like A Dre..
14th Mar 2025, by SPCA Singapore
Pet Cafés: Yea or Nay?
Pet cafés may seem like a dream come true — cute animals you do not usually see, coffee, and cuddles all in one place. Scrolling through social media, it is clear that pet cafés are a growing trend. The cosy aesthetics may seem great for family fun and exposing children to animal interactions, but for the animals, their new ‘home’ could be a place of distress and suffering.
In 2023, the SPCA investigated four pet café cases, including I Love Cat Café, which ...
