Interesting facts about

16. “If you see a ear-
tipped stray cat, that
means it’s been
sterilised and is cared
for by a feeder!”

about 20,000 offsprings in

Can you really find homes for all of us… and our children, grandchildren,
great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren?
18. Why sterilise?
:: so that unwanted baby animals need not be born to suffer
:: an unwanted animal living as a stray risk being culled or abused
:: your pet will be calmer and more affectionate
:: reduces the risks of cancer of the reproductive organs
:: makes your home cleaner because your pet won’t mark the
house all over with its urine

20. Why microchip?
… animals don’t have wallets to keep their ICs!

… your pet belongs to you, and no one else can claim otherwise
… you know there’s still hope if he’s lost!
I’m the size of a
rice grain, so I
won’t hurt your
pet!
