Dispute over welfare of 130 cats to involve authorities

SINGAPORE : The 130 cats which had allegedly been underfed by a caretaker at Pasir Ris Farmway are in fact healthy.

This was confirmed by animal welfare officers from the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) who inspected the animals on Thursday.

The inspectors visited the farm after it received complaints from neighbouring residents and the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

A caller to the MediaCorp News hotline had alleged on Wednesday that the animals had supposedly been underfed.

Another cat lover, who only wants to be known as Madam Yap, has since volunteered to take over the 130 cats.

But that offer has been rejected by the original caretaker of the cats. - CNA /ls
