20th Oct 2020, by SPCA Singapore
HAPPY TALES: WELLS
Annie: “I was volunteering as a dog walker with SPCA once a week. Wells was chosen by the trainer for a dog walking demo session. He's nice looking, independent, and smart.
We adopted him, and everyone loves him! When it's time for medication and supplements, he will consume them with a wagging tail. As an adventurous boy, he loves visiting new places and meeting other dogs. However, he dislikes fruits and vegetables, thunderstorms, and us talking about his naughty deeds!...

X-rays revealed unfamiliar objects in his abdomen. Turns out, he had eaten a door stopper, which was chewed into three parts and entangled in pieces of towel. Most of the towel was stuck within his intestines, which were removed. The door stopper acted as an ‘anch...

2nd Oct 2020, by SPCA Singapore
CHOKING, HANGING AND STRANGLING OF ANIMALS: THIS NEEDS TO END
For several decades, SPCA has seen cases reporting the use of forceful and punishment-based animal training methods in Singapore, predominantly in dog training.

ST JOHN'S CAT SWALLOWS FISH HOOK

SPCA recently returned to St John's Island (SJI) with SJI caregivers to microchip cats. The operation was a success with 14 cats microchipped!
