Please Keep Donations Rolling In

It has been slightly more than a week since the rescue mission of Pulau Ketam dogs has been mounted which I highlighted three times on my blogs. I have a soft spot for dogs and am outraged by the treatment that has been rendered on the stray dogs of Pulau Ketam. The villagers defended their actions by saying that they opted for this because they did not want the dogs to be killed. Isn’t that ironic?

At first, I was worried that the team of rescuers had to go out to the sea daily on rickety boats and without life jackets. I told my friend that their North face jackets wouldn’t be helpful if they fell into sea. My friend couldn’t even swim well. I reminded him to place the safety of his team first before thinking of rescuing the dogs.

I understand that donations started pouring in from many countries around the world by animal lovers who read of the news online and are just as angered by the actions of the villagers of Pulau Ketam. What worries me now is what if the funds run dry before all the dogs are rescued. As the days drag on, it will become more difficult to sustain the operations or to continue to rescue the surviving dogs that would be able to overcome their injuries and maggot infestations, which is exactly why this rescue mission has to be intensified.

I got to know that Selangor SPCA is also mounting a similar rescue mission and is seeking public donations to fund their operations. However, my support is with Furry Friends Farm because it is a “no kill” sanctuary, which is the whole point of sheltering abandoned animals, right?
