Two animal shelters are appealing for contributions to defray the costs of taking in cats and dogs from troubled animal welfare group Animal Lovers League (ALL).
The Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) had announced this January that Voices for Animals and Oasis Second Chance Animal Shelter are among the five groups that will be taking over the care of animals from ALL — which currently has about 100 cats and 60 dogs.
The other three are Noah’s Ark Cares, SOSD and Every Stray Matters.
This comes after ALL lost its tenancy at The Animal Lodge in Sungei Tengah in December 2025 following allegations of neglect. They also owed 53 months’ rent to AVS.
In a Facebook post on Monday (March 23), Derrick Tan, founder of Voices for Animals, said that his shelter will take in cats from ALL on Friday.
Tan told the Straits Times that Voices for Animals will take in 92 cats.
He also appealed for supplies such as cat litter. The shelter had used up 2,200kg of the 2,700kg worth of cat tofu litter it had raised so far, he said.
