DRINKS ON THEM, ALL FOR THE ANIMALS!
This Sunday, we’d like to thank a very special duo who have been quietly supporting us and the animals for several years: Darryll and Josephine Burleigh, from J & D Burleigh (Importer & Distributor of Fine Estate-Bottled Wines).
They have been providing the wine, pro bono, for our gala dinners (our biggest fundraiser every year), for many years. Without them, our gala dinners would not be the same (take it from us, and our satisfied guests!)
So, thank ...

80% OF SINGAPOREANS FEEL THAT ANIMAL PROTECTION IS IMPORTANT TO THEM
This was discovered in a survey commissioned by ACRES and conducted independently by Millward Brown earlier this year.
So, how do we go about protecting animals who have no voice of their own?
Simple. We can be their voice!
Dozens of celebrities condemned the wearing of fur in a 2012 campaign, with many baring all in a strong anti-fur statement. Pamela Anderson boycotted Uggs boots after realising they were made of skin. St...

Black Dog Syndrome
There are a lot of sad realities in life and looming large among them is the existence of stereotypes. Another reality is that they’re seldom applicable to the people, places or things saddled with them.
For example, did you know that black animals are often maligned for various reasons? Black birds (like crows) have often been associated with death or misfortune, while black cats are practically synonymous with bad luck in people’s minds. The typecasting doesn’t end t...

It's next-to-impossible to convey all the ways that your support of our summer food drive is helping. Here's just one example, of how your aid is helping in Zimbabwe.
Karen Paolillo of Turgwe Hippo Trust writes:
"I have a lady baboon called Tight Eyes sleeping outside right next to our bedroom tonight and actually last night. Normally they roost in trees. Tight eyes has been sick for a few months we do not know why. So I have de-wormed her and am feedin...

We all know dogs love belly rubs. But.. a leopard shark? Bet you didn't know that!
Sharks are our friends too, and they certainly do not exist for the purpose of our shark fin soup. Let us say a firm NO to shark's fin, and enjoy more tasty meat-free meals at http://KindMeal.my/

Daffodil, The House-Cat, And Her Adventure 19th Jun 2015, by AnimalCare
Daffodil has been wanting very much to join Bunny’s Place.
“The grass is always greener on the other side” rings true even for highly intelligent beings like cats.
So, she has been sitting outside the grille for many days now.
But we all know that a PatioCat coming into Bunny’s Place is an act of kamikaze.
So, Daffodil decided to try something else this morning.
Now, this is definitely a first.
She went onto Mr G’s ledge and traveled all the way from the front gar...

Tabbies United And One Indy Jones 19th Jun 2015, by AnimalCare
It was a day for the tabbies…
How many tabbies can you see?
The tabbies in our home are generally very peaceful.
Yes, even Mr Zurik is considered relatively “peaceful” if you compare him with the likes of the Titanic Three (Cow, Bunny and Indy).
Indy: Why aren’t I allowed out?
We put up this shelf for the PatioCats but so far, no one is interested.
Indy has been getting a trip out almost daily, especially when Tabs and Tiger are out.
But Indy has to b...
