In Malaysia, stray animals are often found injured or dead on the streets, as they have a high tendency to be involved in car accidents and cruel poisonings. They are usually lost pets that haven’t been properly identified, or pets that were abandoned by their irresponsible owners, leaving them to fend for themselves. Unfortunately, the number of animal dumping cases is only increasing.

Even if a stray is lucky enough to be rescued, animal shelters euthanise up to 5500 animals per day, or approximately 2.7 million a year, due to a lack of resources. Despite the government’s promises for financial aid, animal shelters still depend on community donations to stay operational.

Due to a low funding, many shelters lack the necessary equipment or medical supplies to treat sick and injured animals, making it harder for old and more vulnerable animals to be taken in, or to survive their time in the shelter. Around 80% of shelter animals put to sleep are actually considered healthy and adoptable, but are unfortunately culled due to the limited capacity.

As the human population steadily grows, so does the population of stray animals. Large populations of stray animals can pose a variety of public health concerns. Stray cats and dogs can cause a range of diseases, including rabies, leptospirosis, toxoplasmosis, and tetanus. In residential areas, large populations of stray animals can cause noise disruptions or even injuries to residents, such as dog bites and cat scratches.

It is vital to keep advocating for the protection of strays and their adoption. Adopting these strays or helping your local animal shelter will reduce the number of strays left roaming the streets, and keep both humans and animals safe.

Euthanasia is often a painful process for the stray animals subjected to it. Even a donation of RM10 can help provide for 5-6 animals, and give them a second chance at life.

Your donations make it possible to help more stray animals find safety, shelter, and a new home. With the extra funds, shelters can keep vulnerable animals for a longer time, improving their chances of finding a suitable home, and new owners they can be a companion to, and who will love them in return.

When the founder of Ipoh-based animal shelter, PapanSouls, Keshturi Sivam, saw a social media post about dogs that had been abandoned at the Papan Landfill, along the Ipoh-Lumut highway, she began to visit the site frequently, and felt that "people should know and care about the strays abandoned there.”

She then decided to start PapanSouls, and through her tireless efforts, she formed a team of volunteers who could take turns to feed and medicate the dogs’ onsite. There were only about 60 - 80 dogs in the beginning, but the dumping did not stop. As of December 2022, they have recorded 250 dogs at the landfill with another 120 plus dogs (from the landfill) at their temporary safe house.

These stray dogs are caught by the Ipoh City Council (MBI), and released at the Papan landfill where they have no shelter and are at risk of getting knocked down by speeding vehicles. Many dogs were also dumped by their heartless owners.

Through PapanSouls’ efforts, they are now feeding and caring for 250 dogs at the landfill, and carrying out their spaying and neutering initiatives to curb the stray dog population there.

Frequent adoption drives are organised by the team to help the abandoned pups find new forever homes. PapanSouls aims to raise awareness and educate the public about the plight of strays in our country, and they believe that it is our duty to care for these animals as they are part of our community too.

As the pet-dumping continues, PapanSouls needs more assistance with food, shelter, medical care, and sterilization.

CALLING ALL PET LOVERS!
WE NEED YOUR HELP.

Of late, we have been seeing many strays on the streets. It is heart-breaking to know that many dogs and cats are just abandoned and left unattended without proper care and love.

My Pets Haven is an animal shelter for rescued strays. They have been caring for stray animals and been providing medical attention to each rescue since 2011. With the rising cost of animal food, and hike in price of medical expenses and supplies, this shelter now needs your help.

We are a group of BAC students called The Venus, working on an MPU module, and our aim is to help raise funds for My Pets Haven, so volunteers can care for, and nurse these strays until they are ready for adoption.

WE NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS POSSIBLE.
Every penny counts.

Donations can be made to:
PERTUBUHAN BANGKIT (UPLIFT ORGANIZATION) (MAYBANK) (564342627846)
Please indicate My Pets Haven-The Venus in the reference field and send proof of receipt to Izza @ 013-9808578.

Thank you.

All animals are important. They deserve to be treated with kindness and love. Not abandoned or left on the streets. They need to be protected.

The Covid-19 pandemic has seen a rise in stray animal numbers, as well as (unfortunately) a drop in donations to shelters across the nation.*

The neglect has been exacerbated in terms of space (both for AND in shelters) and food supply due to insufficient funds, volunteers and time.

Open to all animal lovers, join us as we discuss the current status and protections in place for Malaysian strays (canine and feline alike) and how shelter volunteers (a.k.a behind-the-scene heroes) play a major role in helping to look after these furry pals with our panelists!
