The facts are all there for all to read.

Anyway, folks, looks like our local SPCA's ZERO STRAYS vision goes against all these.

The people who adopted June's strays (which as a strays caregiver, she had been providing them with food and attention while the strays continue to live healthily amongst us outside our homes) could have instead adopted the healthy animals on the death row in SPCA simply because no one would adopt them. Poor animals!

Poor June had been caring and loving for them since small and just because her new neighbour threatened them to call DBKL, she had to remove them. June cried all the way home!
