SINGAPORE: A man and a woman were charged on Wednesday (May 6) over the alleged neglect of 71 cats, which were left without enough food and water for almost two years in a flat in Bukit Panjang.
As a result, nine cats died.
Muhammad Khairul Naim Zainol, 36, and Nurul Nadiah Noor Mohamed, 32, were each handed 71 charges linked to the cats, most of which were listed as domestic shorthairs.
Court documents showed that the pair were owners of the cats named from “E1” to “E71”, living in a public housing unit on the third floor of Block 469, Segar Road in Bukit Panjang.
