spca melaka ni mmg daif.
kadang2 spca selangor kena bagi bantuan kat dorang.
tapi yg herannya, spca melaka sendiri tak aktif buat fundraising so mcm mana org2 nak tolong?

kalau org2 yg arif sikit ttg tempat perlindungan haiwan ni, dorang travel jauh sikit htr kucing2 atau anjing2 ke noah's ark di johor.
mmg luas tempatnya, ladang tu semua binatang free-roaming.

Sedih baca your post. Kalau saya tak sanggup nak hantar kucing yg duduk rumah ke sana. Biarlah diaorg rumah kitaorg je lah. Saya pernah pergi shelter home for dogs & cats. Diaorg semua simpan dlm kandang. Tuanpunya tempat tu bagi diaorg makan nasi campur ikan rebus & jugak yg mcm keropok tu. Memang alhamdulillah jugak. Tuanpunya ada cakap diaorg memang perlukan donation utk makanan binatang. Lepas tu dia cakap mana2 kucing adult yg org tak nak adopt diaorg akan put to sleep. Diaorg tak mampu bagi makan. Tu yg kesian dengar.

Face -to-Face with DBKL

In light of the recent controversy surrounding DBKL, the SPCA Chairperson called for a meeting to discuss serious allegations that DBKL are strangling stray dogs and drowning cats.

The meeting was attended by Dr Hamdan bin Ahmad( Head of Animal Welfare Dept, DVS), Christine Chin, Dr Lim, Dr Suhanna, Dr Goh, Mr Krishnan, Dr Zaidi (DBKL),  and Mr Chandrakahn (DBKL Pound Manager).

SPCA highlighted that this is a new era of responsibility, accountability, reality, transparency and humanity. There is nowhere to hide for animal abusers. DBKL vehemently denied the allegations and are ameniable to compliance of the DVS Guidelines  for stray animal control (May 2008).

SPCA has investigated the earlier allegation in Nov 08, and also alerted DVS who contacted DBKL to get their story - there was no hard evidence of strangulation or drowning. SPCA said SPCA Klinik Kembiri @ DBKL will close in protest if the allegations prove to be true.

Copies of the Guidelines were distributed to all present at the meeting.  In  compliance to the guidelines that prioritized animal welfare, DBKL has agreed to;
a. get a qualified Vet to do the euthanasia of the dogs and cats once a week
b. anaesthetize aggressive and nervous dogs before putting down so as to reduce the stress inflicted on the dogs. This will incur higher costs.
c. create humane conditions for euthanizing animals e.g. a separate room
d. Attempt to rehome dogs, after being spayed or neutered by SPCA KK.
e. mandatory microchipping
f.  differential licensing for neutered and unneutered dogs

The root causes of strays are irresponsible owners who allow their un-neutered dogs to roam or abandon their un-neutered dogs, and they need to be addressed and penalized via effective and sensible legislation. We also highlighted an FBI fact that animal abusers are 5 times more likely to abuse children, women and be a menace to society - so cruelty to animals hardly ends there.

Hell Holes created by MPKlang, MPKajang and MPAmpang Jaya

Recent investigations into stray dog control measures by local municipals highlighted the hell holes that stray dogs impounded are thrown into. These Municipals do not even have pounds.

MPKlang operates an inhumane and detestable "pound". MPKlang has promised over the years that they will build a new pound and stop using wires to catch stray and owners' dogs. Through the years, SPCA's letters and calls to action to MP Klang have fallen on deaf ears. MPKlang keeps the stray dogs in a truck. To SPCA's knowledge there is no food and water provided. The wires cut into the throats and bodies of dogs and puppies causing immense pain and a slow and extremely painful death. This cruelty is against the law and directly violate Section 44 Animals Act 1953 (revised 2006) - yet no changes and charges are made.

MPKajang is also another Municipal that contributes directly to the cruelty of stray and owned dogs. Stray and owners' dogs are kept in this truck. Again, we are not aware that food and water are provided. The truck is kept hidden from public view and there is no way an owner can retrieve his dog.

MPAJ also has no pound and relies on their dog-catching contractor, Vet-Fine S/B, to catch and destroy stray and owners' dogs. The dogs are kept in vans, for days without food and water. Vet-Fine S/B are implicated in many atrocities involving the capture and inhumane killing of stray and owners' dogs. SPCA has reported Vet-Fine's alleged cruelty to DVS and VAM but no action has been taken. SPCA has been verbally abused and threatened by Vet-Fine dog catchers in this process of gathering information.

Next week we will highlight other pounds, as well as contact details for each pound that you can write e-mails and letters to and voice your concerns!

SPCA Assists DVS Labuan

SPCA KK team visited Labuan in Jan 09 upon request by DVS Labuan to assist in training the staff at DVS clinic in medication, treatment and clinical protocols. Dr Suhanna and Dr Goh complimented on the staff's interest and dedication to learning their scope of work better. The vets offered treatment and surgery for pets for one day, which was well received by Labuan residents! The KK vets also advised on better surgical procedures for spaying and neutering. We hope DVS Labuan will be able to extend a wider range of vet services to the Labuan residents in the near future.

Leave A Legacy To SPCA Through Rockwills

Will-writing company Rockwills has appointed SPCA as one of its accredited beneficiaries. The tie-up was launched during a signing ceremony that took place at Rockwill's office in Jalan Klang Lama on 19 January 2009. Christine Chin and Meem represented SPCA at the launch, and met with the Group CEO Mr Saw Leong Aun, and Deputy CEO Mr Low Wan Gem. We would like to thank Rockwills for their support and generosity!
If you would like to leave your legacy to SPCA, please call Rockwills @ 03 7781 1993 for assistance.

Happy Tails

Here are some first-hand accounts of how beautiful and exciting it is to share your life with an animal who just wants a second chance!

TOBY

Dear SPCA,

News From SPCA Selangor
For release on Sunday, 15th Feb 2009

On Friday, 13th February 2009, the SPCA Selangor Front Office received a call from the management office of an apartment complex in Ampang. Neighbours had been complaining about the stench emanating from an apartment where some cats had been abandoned, when the tenant suddenly disappeared.

Nothing could have prepared SPCA Staff for what they found in the apartment.

Friday
SPCA driver Rajesparan went to the apartment on Friday afternoon to survey the situation and remove the cats. Upon entering the apartment, the smell of animal waste was suffocating. The living room floor was covered in pools of faeces and urine. There were dozens of cats in the living room, kitchen, wash area and even on the air-conditioning units hovering above the balcony. He managed to rescue 11 cats and kittens that afternoon, and left plenty of food and water for the remaining cats until they could be rescued the following day.

Food and water had been left behind until SPCA staff returned the next morning

Their owners had allegedly vacated the apartment two months ago, apparently leaving behind their maid with the cats. The maid had run away in last two weeks, leaving the cats without access to food or water and living in layers of filth. The majority of the cats and kittens were in a heart-wrenching state

SPCA bantu haiwan teraniaya

Oleh ROSLAN OTHMAN

KEADAAN tempat tinggal yang selesa di SPCA, Ampang ini mendapat
sokongan dan tajaan daripada beberapa individu, syarikat dan persatuan
yang prihatin.

AMPANG 19 Feb. - Zaharah sedang memasak dengan pintu dapurnya terbuka apabila tiba-tiba dia dikejutkan dengan kehadiran seekor kucing yang comot.

Berang dengan kehadiran haiwan yang kelaparan itu, Zaharah mencapai penyapu dan terus memukulnya tanpa belas kasihan menyebabkan kucing itu terpaksa melarikan diri.

Namun, selepas beberapa ketika, kucing itu muncul kembali dan Zaharah yang masih belum reda kemarahannya, memukul haiwan itu sekali lagi dan terus menghempas pintu dapur.

Kehadiran kucing atau anjing liar yang comot, kotor dan tidak bertuan kerana kelaparan adalah antara pemandangan biasa yang dilihat di kawasan perumahan, kedai-kedai makan atau di pasar basah.

Situasi itu memang tidak disukai masyarakat, malah haiwan-haiwan ini selalu dianggap pengacau dan sering dikaitkan dengan imej kotor dan membawa penyakit.

Ramai di antara kita akan bersikap dan bertindak seperti Zaharah dengan harapan haiwan itu tidak akan datang lagi.

Yang pasti, tidak ramai yang mahu ambil peduli terhadap nasib haiwan terbiar itu dan sekadar melihatnya sahaja tanpa berusaha membela nasib haiwan-haiwan tersebut.

Jika anda singgah di Persatuan Mencegah Kekejaman Terhadap Haiwan atau Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animal (SPCA) di Ampang, Selangor, banyak haiwan dapat dilihat terutama kucing dan anjing jinak sama ada dibuang oleh tuannya atau dimasukkan ke situ kerana teraniaya.

Pusat penjagaan haiwan yang ditubuhkan sejak 1958 itu bukan sahaja melindungi haiwan terbiar tetapi turut menawarkan pelbagai perkhidmatan dari segi rawatan, pemulihan serta pendidikan mengenai penjagaan haiwan.

Pengurus SPCA, Chelvy M mengakui pusat itu menerima haiwan yang menjadi mangsa dera dan terbiar kira-kira 500 ekor setiap bulan.

Selain menjadi mangsa penderaan manusia termasuk disimbah air panas dan ditendang, ada juga yang tidak diberi makan oleh pemiliknya kerana bercuti panjang.

"Kebanyakan kes diterima berdasarkan laporan individu yang prihatin serta wakil persatuan penduduk, selain turut menerima kes dari pihak berkuasa tempatan (PBT)," ujarnya.

Memandangkan kemudahan dan ruang di pusat tersebut agak terhad, hanya kira-kira 200 ekor anjing dan 200 ekor kucing boleh diterima pada satu-satu masa.

Setiap haiwan itu akan dimandulkan bagi mengelakkannya daripada membiak.

"Secara purata, keupayaan seekor kucing membiak kira-kira empat kali setahun manakala anjing dua kali setahun. Setiap kali ia membiak, haiwan-haiwan ini akan melahirkan antara tiga hingga lima ekor anak.

"Pada kadar itu, bayangkan sahaja jumlah kucing atau anjing yang lahir dalam masa setahun,'' ujarnya bagi menjelaskan rasional pihaknya memandulkan haiwan tersebut.

Menurutnya, sebagai makhluk tuhan, haiwan-haiwan itu sebenarnya bukan sahaja berhak mendapat kasih sayang tetapi juga makan dan minum serta tempat perlindungan yang sempurna.

Bagaimanapun, katanya, akibat kurang kasih sayang dan keprihatinan, ada di antara kita tanpa disedari telah melakukan kekejaman terhadap haiwan-haiwan tersebut.

Sambil mengakui sememangnya pada peringkat awal memelihara haiwan kesayangan di rumah satu pengalaman menyeronokkan, tetapi lama kelamaan ia menjadi sebagai bebanan apabila ia tidak ditangani dengan betul.

Menurut beliau, ramai yang menyukai haiwan, bagaimanapun terlalu sedikit mempunyai pengetahuan dari segi kesihatan terutama kebersihan badan.

"Apabila haiwan kesayangan mereka sakit atau bermasalah misalnya, sesetengahnya mengambil jalan mudah membuang haiwan ini begitu sahaja.

"Selain kedai makan, pasar basah dan rumah orang antara lokasi yang sering menjadi sasaran mereka yang tidak bertanggungjawab ini dengan harapan haiwan ini dapat meneruskan kehidupan,'' ujarnya.

Namun, kata Chelvy, ia bukan langkah terbaik kerana tindakan tersebut merupakan permulaan kepada seseorang melakukan kekejaman terhadap haiwan.

Dalam keadaan yang tidak terurus, haiwan ini juga terpaksa berjuang mendapatkan makanan, berlindung dari hujan dan panas serta ancaman persekitaran termasuk kemalangan jalan raya dan sebagainya.

Katanya, bagi mengelakkan kesesakan tempat tinggal, SPCA turut melancarkan program pengambilan haiwan angkat bagi menggalakkan orang ramai membela haiwan selain memupuk sifat menyayangi haiwan.

"Harga bagi seekor anjing bermula dari RM100 mengikut jenisnya manakala seekor kucing berharga RM70.

"Kami hanya menawarkan haiwan-haiwan ini kepada individu yang benar-benar suka dan menyayangi haiwan,'' ujarnya.

Sambil menyifatkan SPCA sebagai lokasi terbaik untuk memupuk nilai kasih sayang terhadap haiwan, masyarakat turut dialu-alukan untuk menjadi sukarelawan di pusat itu seterusnya melengkapi misi persatuan terutama dalam usaha melindungi haiwan mangsa dera dan teraniaya.

Rescued Dog Recovering At Vet

Animal rescuer Pat Lim contacted the SPCA Chairperson regarding the urgent rescue of a dog she had seen in the Puchong area. One night while she was out for dinner, she saw this dog rummaging through garbage bins looking for food. She could not see the dog clearly in the dim light, but could make out that it had what appeared to be a dark brown circle around its neck. Several days later, she came back to check on it with the SPCA Driver Samy and Vet Assistant Kenny Thean and found it sleeping under a car. To their horror, the poor dog had a wire tightly wound around its neck, cutting deep and leaving a gaping wound! They managed to catch the dog and transport it to a private vet where Pat Lim and a friend are having it treated and subsequently rehomed.
SPCA salutes all the dedicated animal rescuers who continue to do great work for the animals!

Found : Dalmation

On her way home on Thursday, SPCA Inspector Cunera found a clearly-distressed and frightened Dalmation trying to cross the MRR2 highway near Kuala Ampang. She managed to pull over and catch the dog. A kind shopkeeper nearby offered to keep the dog overnight, and we brought the dog back to the Animal Shelter today. If this dog belongs to you, please call SPCA immediately at 42565312/ 42535179.

Meow, Belai Si Comel Bersama Friskies!

Friskies and SPCA are collaborating to bring you the first-ever reality show about adopted cats! Auditions were held on the 7th, 8th, 14th & 15th of February at Giant Shah Alam and Giant Kota Damansara to recruit contestants for the show. Contestants had to talk about their experience with cats, and why they thought they were going to be good adoptive parents. 6 contestants will be shortlisted to come to SPCA and adopt a kitten. The camera crew will follow the lives of the adoptive parents and their kittens, and viewers will be able to vote via SMS for the best family. The panel of judges will include representatives from SPCA, Friskies and other animal welfare organizations. The show will start to air on TV3 in mid-March.

Update: 53 Abandoned Cats

You probably remember our News Alert last Saturday about the 45 abandoned cats we rescued from an apartment in Ampang, after they had been left to live in their own filth for several weeks. On Monday, our Animal Inspector Cunera and GAWS consultant Glyn returned to retrieve the remaining cats, and managed to bring back all 8 cats. The news has since been published in several local dailies and on several forums online, and we are so very happy to have received hundreds of calls from concerned members of the public, wanting to find out more about these poor cats. More than half had to be euthanized as they were too weak and sick, but the others are for adoption. Most of them are semi-feral and nervous, and their medical history is unknown. Adopters must be experienced cat handlers, their current cats vaccinated and healthy, and they must have a facility to keep these cats confined and separated from other cats.
We’ve received over a hundred calls and e-mails today alone after the article got published in The Star Metro, we hope these kind people will come to the shelter over the weekend to adopt these cats!
