PAWS Animal Welfare Society shared the following information: Catch-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (CNVR) is internationally recognized as the most humane, safe and effective way to deal with the stray animal issue. Using this method, strays in a colony are caught, neutered, vaccinated and then returned to their territory. CNVR has been enormously successful in reducing stray animal populations,…

I received two pieces of good news yesterday. The first was a forwarded message from a feeder in the Shah Alam area saying she met the MBSA dog unit who informed her that they no longer send captured dogs to PAWS anymore. Instead, the caught dogs will be neutered and released! The staff was polite…

I don’t know why I took so long to do this! I thought it would have been a very complicated process but it only took less than an hour! We have now migrated completely to animalcare.my!! Now, I have lots of work to do to change the links in our pages. Facebook, X and Instagram…

This is long overdue!! When I started AnimalCare 15 years ago, I tried to purchase the domain name animalcare.org but it was unavailable (already purchased by a USA company – still is). So, I opted for animalcare.my, the “my” in front to mean “Malaysia” and mind you, this was BEFORE the use of “my” was…

Kudos to the Sepang Municipal Council for keeping the Cyberjaya Cat Park running well! The news: https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2024/04/12/stray-cats-in-sepang-living-a-charmed-life The park only takes in street cats, not those surrendered by people. Can other municipal councils consider setting up such parks for dogs and cats too? While ideally, CNRM is the most compassionate way to control the street…

Here are some news after yesterday’s meeting between MBSA and certain organisations. From the NST: https://www.nst.com.my/news/nation/2024/04/1033636/mbsa-heeds-tengku-permaisuri-selangors-advice-improving-stray-dog From FMT: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2024/04/02/shah-alam-city-council-to-shelve-culling-of-stray-dogs-says-activist/ The only change we have noted is that the Task Force Operation has been shelved for now. But there are no immediate changes to anything else. Caught dogs will still be sent to PAWS (the pound)…

When PAWS asserted that they were never informed about it nor will they ever agree to such an operation, now MBSA claims that it was just using a “scare tactic” on its…
