We have just been contacted by co-feeder rescuer that there are 5 puppies at a location in Defu. Apparently, the workers rescued them (less than 2-3 mths old) but the boss did not allow them in the premise. He wants the pups to be removed otherwise he will call SPCA. We don't know when he'll call…we're racing against time

If you know of someone who is able to adopt or foster one of these 5 pups, please contact us. If you can post into other forum, they do not necessary be dog forums, please assist. These puppies are vulnerable now. Contact anaterry@singnet.com.sg or call 98383820.

ALL is a non-profit organization dedicated to animal welfare. They run a place of refuge for stray dogs and cats at Pasir Ris called Pets Villa.
Pets Villa is a volunteer-run shelter opened in 2004. It is an "open concept" animal home where the dogs are not "incarcerated" in kennels or in cages, but are allowed to roam freely within the compound and interact with one another.

We are proud to be associated with ALL where every animal is given a second chance in life at this place - where they follow a strict 'no-kill' policy, no animal sleeps hungry and no animal dies alone. Every animal comes with their own sad and abused story but at Pets Villa they are given the same love, equality, respect and space.
The 2009 calendar features some of the rescued animals in their care. The calendars are specially designed with additional message cards for separate use At $10 each this will help in the funding of ALL's medical fees for the animals in their charge.
Please help support them for the good work they are doing for the helpless. Email us anaterry@singnet.com.sg or call 98383820 if you have bulk order of 20 pieces and we will deliver to your locale.

AVA's Responsible Pet Ownership Roadshow 2009
Rat Team and friends will be helping man the ALL's booth at the coming AVA's roadshow from November 7 to 9 from 11 am to 9 pm. This is held at the Singapore Expo, Hall 6B along with the other Animal Welfare Groups (AWGs). This is a fantastic opportunity to learn and interact with different AWGs on their efforts in helping the animals in Singapore. Definitely a good education time for the young on Responsible Pet Ownership. Please log onto the AVA's website (http://www.ava.gov.sg/) and download the schedule for the Roadshow on the various fun, games, talks and activities for adults and kids.
We will be selling calendars postcards, notebooks, candles and other merchandise to fund ALL's welfare activities for the cats and dogs in their facility.
Come and visit us in our booth and let us get to know you. Support the cause by buying our merchandise. Help us help the animals in our care. Admission is free. We hope to see you there.

On the other side
This week was a pretty busy one. We have been round to the other parts of this area to see what we can do for those outside our zone. Fortunately for us, the HomelessinSeletar network is growing so we will be able to include feeding for the skeletal dogs on the other side. S and C have kicked off the new route and been successful in finding them. As we drove past those areas we also noticed quite fair number of foreign wokers‘ dormitories. A fact we have to remember to be careful in our feeding, that we are not observed as it would lead them to our dogs.
S and C have also been very successful in their weekend feeds for the regular Rat Pack. It is a tremendous boost as they live in this area and can cover the weekend duty. During the workdays it is not a problem as we work in this area but weekend feeds have not been as regular as sometimes the dogs are not around during the times when we go. When we went over on Sunday afternoon, with them only Mama Brown was there but in the evening, when S and C went over again, it appears that the other three have returned from their gallivanting. And so a regular feeding pattern is slowly setting with the help of our new team members.

We intend to catch Mama Brown within the next week to have her sterilized. She is not as difficult as Blackie as she will come out if the others are around. The most important is the timing.
What a lovely dog,
What does her future and the rest of the Rat Pack hold
If we can't rehome them, the best present we can give the females is the operation. At this point, we are still undecided if we will release her back to the Pack after the operation. For one we do not know how we can keep her in boarding on a long term plan, at least for the next ten over years. Again, a home is the best solution, but with so many dogs looking for homes, how can Mama Brown compete. Such lovely dog but what an uncertain future. Is there anyone who can help?
