After the night of flyering (24 Nov) with some volunteers at Toa Payoh North, we came to realise from the residents, that cat abuses were not uncommon at the estate. Void decks were usually infested with rowdy kids at unearthly hours, and the back of the flats were so dimly lit that any form of crime can easily be committed without being caught.
We were also told by residents, that many cat abuses were in fact done by kids not older than 14 years old. They were sighted tying the cats’ legs up and securing the strings to pipes, or bicycles, causing injuries to these cats and then leaving them to die. As we listened in shock, we realised that must be how Pui Pui was killed. Click here to see Pui Pui’s case.
Distribution of the SPCA reward flyers, networking and cooperation between concerned residents did wonders. Although no one saw exactly how Pui Pui was tortured to death YET, at least 2 witnesses were willing to step forward to make police reports on what they had seen the kids do to the stray cats.
Meanwhile, an appeal will be sent to the town council to request for more light in those dimly lit areas.
Paw Pledge team is now appealling for contributions to the Trap-Neuter-Return-Management (TNRM) of stray cats of Toa Payoh North. At least 12 cats were unsterilised. Please support us in any ways you can! You can buy our merchandises via Online, or patronise our Fund Raiser Flea Mkt Events. If you’d like to make a donation for this cause, kindly drop us an email to pawpledge@gmail.com.
Meanwhile, a mother cat (previously abused by those rascals) and its 5 kittens were removed from the area. 2 other adult cats whom were abused but escaped death, were also taken to a shelter. We are urgently seeking kind adopters to take them in.

We urge all to stay vigilant at all times not just for our own safety, but also to look out for the helpless stray animals, who have no choice but to roam the streets.
This poor kitty was strangled to death with a rafia string just behind the block. The rafia string had cut 1″ deep into its throat, probably causing poor kitty a very slow painful death.
While it struggled to its slow death, residents were strangely, not awaken from the noise. Will that be possible if it was murder of a child?
