I will definitely keep this idea in mind when we work on the next event, so I can discuss it with the organizers. In fact, we will be enhancing PetFinder to properly showcase products, and I would love to discuss with you and Blackwood on promotional arrangements that would benefit them and our members.

Hi there Andy,
Not a problem. If we are not allowed to sale, then perhaps we could distribute out free samples of Blackwood Cat and Dog food or perhaps we could ask Blackwood to sponsor some gifts as prizes for the competitions lined up. I am sure that the distributor will give us his full support. If you think this is ok, I will further discuss with him. Do let me know. Please feel free to contact me at 016 380 8664 to discuss further as I am seldom online due to work

Hi Felix,
Yes, that'd be awesome if they can sponsor some gifts for our competitions. We will be having many rounds of games, so the more prize sponsors we can get, the merrier it is.
Please discuss with them and let me know what they can sponsor and how I can get ahold of the items. Thanks!

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2

Sorry for registering on the forum so late! Really happy to see petfinder.my and friends are so supportive of the event - hope you're excited as we are ! We've only had a month to plan this event, so we need all the help we can get from you ! Keep up the great work you've been doing! :)
Btw Andy, seeing that you have so many great activities planned, we have rearranged the space to give petfinder.my a whole booth ;) Wifi still not confirmed, but power point most definitely available. Will revert to confirm Wifi!
Heres the updated info for the event:

More adoptions, a huge crowd and more exposure for the animal welfare & environment NGOs there! Please do help circulate the e-flyer and web banners through email, your website or blog. If each of you can even bring 5-10 friends, we're gonna fill up the spot !

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Hi Jacinta,
Thanks for the updated details of the event, and a big Thank You for providing us with a full booth! Good work in organizing such a great event, we are all very eager to contribute and be part of it.
Now that PetFinder has more space, we can put more computers and materials on display. I will likely bring an additional computer to showcase the pet adoption profiles. Our booth will definitely be the most electricity hungry booth haha, so I'll need to bring power extension chords along.
No worries if there is no wifi - I will likely download a copy of the entire website locally to ensure that the visitors have a smooth browsing experience.
If possible, please let me know the schedule of events that are using the stage, so we can fit in our animal contests accordingly. If the timings are too tight, then we will run the competition in front of our booth instead.
I'll be doing further broadcasts of the event to the members, and through other media channels as well.
Looking forward to the day!

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Dear Members,
Here's the latest updates for the event.
Thanks to Yen and the Sea Park Pet Supplies pet shop, we have obtained a large collection of attractive gifts and prizes for our games!
Here are our activities on that day:
1) Pet Adoption Showcase
2 dedicated computers will be used to showcase our PetFinder.my website and its list of pets for adoption. Interested adopters can contact the rescuers/shelters on the spot. This showcase also complements SPCA and PAWS' adoption drive that day, by featuring a more comprehensive list of their available pets.
2) Photo Hunt Computer Game Contest
We will have 2 laptops dedicated to hosting this Photo Hunt trivia game. Contestants will pay RM5 to play the game, where he has to spot 5 differences in each picture to progress to the next level. The top 2 scorers of each hour will receive a variety of attractive pet products.
3) Sausage-Eating Dog Contest
Each participant's dog will be giving a mixture sausages and can food to eat. Oh, and the owners will also have to munch away at some food simultanously too. The 2 fastest participants to finish their food will receive some really cool prizes! Each game only costs RM10.
100% of the funds collected on the event will be divided equally and given to SPCA and PAWS at the end of the day.
If any of you guys have time, please feel free to drop by for a game! There are also lots of other interesting activities and events, so don't miss out on them!
To the volunteers, I will be emailing you all with further details on managing the booth and games. Here's our list of volunteers for the day:
1) Andy Koh
2) Siew Yen
3) Chow
4) Valerie Chong
5) Chelly
6) Shan Hui
7) Sze Kaye
8) Bell Xun
Anyone else that are interested in volunteering, please let me know asap.
Thank you!

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
Hi Clement, we have 8 volunteers now!
That's a great idea... send over Ricky & Rocky hehe, one of them can look after the computers while the other will manage the sausage eating game. Please let them know not to eat all the sausages before the contest begin, and try not to pee at the tables of other booths haha.

Re: PetFinder.my - World Animal Day, KL Tower - Nov 2
hi,
not sure if it's ok to post this here. if it's a boo-boo, please delete or move it as necessary. I can't seem to find a general thread for the world animal updates.. I'll cross post this just in case.
The Breeder's Celect Distributor has confirmed that Breeder's Celect customers will receive 15% discount on the product on the day of the show. customers who wish to maximise on the fabulous offer (bear in mind they will have to donate 30% of nett profits to SPCA too) will be glad to know that purchases of ten bags and above will entitle you to free delivery within the klang valley.
They will also begin the preliminary stages of selecting suitable candidates for the Breeders Celect loyalty program. in this program, eligible customers will be entitled to purchase Breeder's Celect 35L bags at 10% discount (i.e. rm90) AND get combine it with the buy-ten-get-one-free-promotion. the total discount is a very attractive 20% however, it is only available at selected stores.
