Malay Mail Marking World Animal Day

LOVE YOU: Feline and canine friends at SPCA yesterday

MANY animal lovers gathered at the SPCA Selangor animal shelter in Ampang to celebrate World Animal Day yesterday. Volunteers, those who provide foster homes for the animals, sponsors, SPCA staff and members of the public honoured the occasion which is celebrated on Oct 4 every year.

World Animal Day is a worldwideevent to acknowledge and honour the contributions made by animals, as well as to create awareness of the plight of animals as victims of exploitation and abuse.

AMP Radio Networks general manager Kudsia Kahar was not the only celebrity guest present at the event. National badminton legend Cheah Soon Kit also came to show his support and honour World Animal Day.

¡°Charity isn¡¯t limited to humans. Animals need our charity too. We all should play our part and help spread the word. We need more people to help create awareness about this kind of issues,¡± said Cheah.

SPCA Selangor chairman Christine Chin said: ¡°Billions of animals are killed every day for food. Many more are being used in test labs. There¡¯s also the issue of exploitation, as well as wildlife habitats being destroyed for development.¡±

The focus this year is on renewing personal pledges towards animals. Guests recited their pledges to protect and care for animals, writing them on the shelter¡¯s World Animal Day banner as well as their personal pledge card given by the SPCA.

There was a candle-lighting ceremony to remember the plight of animals worldwide and honour the memories of animals that have touched lives everywhere.

The ceremony was followed by prayers from members of the Sathya Sai Baba Association. Awards were given to sponsors, volunteers and caregivers who have supported the animal shelter.

Vouchers for free spaying and neutering were also given away to 50 individuals who wish to sterilise their pets.

The World Animal Day celebration is an annual event in SPCA¡¯s calendar. Information on events as well as its services can be found on its official website, www.spca.org.

SPCA Notice Board



World Animal Day 2009

Many thanks to all the volunteers, fosterers, donors, sponsors and friends of SPCA Selangor who attended our World Animal Day celebrations on the 4th of October!

The short and meaningful ceremony started at 2.30 pm, and included a speech by the SPCA Chairman Christine Chin, a pledge to help animals (read together aloud!), and a pledge wall signing session for penning personal pledges and thoughts for the animals.








There was also an Appreciation Awards ceremony, where we recognized and thanked individual volunteers, fosterers, donors, and long-time friends of our organisation. The recipients were given a chance to say a few words, to encourage others to put their compassion into action for the animals!






And the most beautiful and touching part of the day ¨C the candle-lighting. With the calm and quiet chants and prayers by a priest from the Sri Nivas Ashram, one by one the guests came forward to light the scented tea-lights ¨C in memory of animals that have passed on, and in hope of a brighter future for animal welfare in Malaysia.







Emcee Shahrul encouraged the crowd ¨C ¡°Remember the plight of animals worldwide, strengthen your will to help them, and honour the beautiful memories of animals that have touched your life. Remember your pets, our shelter animals, the strays on the streets, animals that are left neglected by their owners, and the animals in captivity who are suffering in zoos and parks.¡± The tone changed to something more somber, thoughtful, and more meditative.

More than 100 friends joined us for this simple celebration - special guests included MBPJ Councillor Anthony Thanasayan, Datin Nariza Petra, Radio personality Kudsia Kahar, Arthasarathy Sampath (Spiritual Advisor, Sai Nivas Ashram) & his wife Kanaka Sampath, Rachel Ng (former Miss Malaysia), ex-national badminton star Cheah Soon Kit and his lovely wife Anita. Guests took home their personalized pledge cards and free ¡°I Pledge To...¡± carsticker.

After the ceremony, everyone mingled and enjoyed a delicious vegetarian buffet! We hope everyone will follow through with their pledges to honour, respect and care for the animals around them!
