  • Dog-neutering subsidy revised to RM150!

    We have happy news for all dog-caregivers!!

  • Our Facebook page – comments enabled now

    Dear Facebookers, My apologies that our facebook page was functioning on bare minimum when it first started until now. I wasn’t able to handle so much and truth be told, I am totally and absolutely FB-illiterate (even now). So the comments and messages function had been disabled previously as the purpose of the facebook page…

  • Please do NOT use Poslaju when sending your subsidy claim forms

    I’m afraid this is no longer a gentle reminder as I have been receiving quite a number of claim forms sent via Poslaju. It is written clearly in our subsidy policies which is sent to all applicants when they write in to request for subsidy (note the part in red) to please NOT use Poslaju:…

  • Please use standard sized (white) envelopes (60 sen stamps)

  • No more publicising for fosterers, only for adoptions

    Effective today, please be informed that we will no longer be able to publicise for fostering unless it is for our sponsored animals. We will, however, still publicise for adoptions. The reason is, we can take full responsibility for our sponsored animals, but we cannot do the same for the animals of other rescuers. Off…

  • Revised neutering subsidies (effective 11th September 2012) – RM100 flat rate

    Despite repeated reminders, we are still receiving forms where applicants do not fill up the type of animal (dog/cat/etc) or its gender (male/female). This makes our work difficult because I have to either call up or email the applicant to ask for details before the subsidy can be paid out. Incomplete forms (which actually should…

  • Please disclose all facts truthfully and carefully before submitting a claim to us

    In light of a recent case where a rescuer had applied to several organisations for financial aid for the same bills without disclosing this multiple claim to us (despite a clause in our form which requires this disclosure), we wish to now gently remind all applicants to please disclose the facts HONESTLY when applying for…
