EMERGENCY AID FOR MANDAI MAMA: Update
Mandai Mama's CT scan has since revealed the growth is inoperable and the cancer has spread. She will only be needing palliative care at the moment. She is showing no signs of pain and is eating perfectly well. She is also able to move and function independently with no problems whatsoever.

We have have been lucky enough to find  Mandai Mama a retirement home environment under the care of the wonderful volunteers from Gentle Paws. We would like to thank the amazing team for working with us to help a street dog in need.

We will continue to support Mandai Mama's medical care and palliative care as long as she is pain free and eating well. Thank you to everyone for donating to support her care️

FEATURE: WHY ADOPT?

Why ADOPT? Watch this video to find out more! 

Featured here are Ursula and Ella who adopted Ringo from us. Ringo was stricken with heart worm and had spent all her life on the streets. The Burton family decided to open their hearts to fostering Ringo and they eventually chose to ADOPT her! This video is part of a series that shares a little bit about what volunteering, fostering and adopting entails!

A special thanks to the students from  Team Treasure Em Dogs who are doing a degree in Communications at the University of Buffalo, The State of New York who kindly put the videos together!

VOLUNTEERS IN ACTION

Our CAS Education programme aims to help organisations and individuals in our community understand Animal Welfare issues in Singapore and learn animals related skills. Education is fundamental to helping raise awareness for the plight of animals in Singapore. The more you know the more power you have to be the change.

Every Fridays are corporate Fridays at CAS!

We work with company's to encourage staff to volunteer on site and do their part for animals in need. We recently  had two lovely teams from Google and ANZ Bank! They helped with feeding, showering and cleaning. CAS kennels are kept spick and span all day. We believe there is no reason that rescue animals in a shelter deserve any lesser than a clean, safe and conducive environment to be in.
​
Thank you Google and ANZ Bank for the amazing work ❤️

........................................................................
​We recently had a group of special visitors from ​North Vista Secondary School who kindly ran a fund raiser and awareness campaign in their school as part of their VIA (Values in Acttion) Project. 

The students also attended a tour to find out more about the work we do at CAS as well as the animals we care for. The students also left their mark by sponsoring a kennel in aid of the animals at CAS to help us continue our rescue and rehoming efforts. A Special Thank You to 3E1 as well as their form teachers for their effort and time to help street dogs and cats in Singapore via their efforts!

​Donation Scam Alert

We have been made aware that there are scammers impersonating as our volunteers and asking for donations. 

Please note that CAS does not solicit funds through telemarketing or door-to-doo fundraising campaigns. Please do not donate.

If you are ever approached in a public area from a person purporting to be a CAS volunteer, please first  ask to see his/her NRIC and a copy of the collector’s  Certificate of Authority issued by the Singapore Police Force.  A sample COA is attached. 

The Ministry of Culture, Community & Youth also provides useful tips on informed giving

CAS wishes to thank all individuals & big-hearted corporate donors/sponsors who have a soft spot for animals in need.
