GrASS Land Funds Upate

To Our Wonderful Supporters,

We have currently received a total of MYR 1581.89. These funds are kept in our bank account and will not be touched until we have reached our goal.

We thank you for all your support & we keep praying and hoping for more donations to pour in.

Why we need land so urgently?

Because we want to stop the stray dogs and cats from being abused by evil people.

What they do to strays?
Beat them up, torture them, butcher them, shoot them with rubber bullets to kill them after catching them in an inhumane manner.

Now, we want to have a center not only to help the domesticated stray animals but also the wildlife as there are plans to build a second animal testing facility in Malacca, Malaysia.

The first one was found in Bukit Mertajam, Malaysia but has yet to be exposed.

Please refer to the star online: (one of Malaysia's local newspaper)

Just by contributing a dollar, you are changing the world even with the slightest impact.

GrASS requires Land & Building Funds

As of June 2010, GrASS is now about 1.5 years old. GrASS is currently aiming to raise funds to acquire land on the mainland of Penang, Malaysia as land on the island itself is scarce & very costly. With this in mind, GrASS has decided to bring together a few other animal shelters & independent pet rescuers whom have the same goal in mind to make it all come true.

Because we do not have land, we are limited to the number of strays we are able to take in. Our shelters are fosterers, rental of boarding facilities from pet shops/ pet care centers and our own homes.

We have successfully re-homed about 30 dogs & cats in total so far and have about 15 more in hand which we hope will get a home real soon. Where possible, we adopt as many as we can and care for them to provide them a great life in a home with loving families.

Here are the details regarding the land required:

Land size: 4 acres
Price: Approximately Malaysian Ringgit (MYR) 6.00 per square feet
Sum: Approximately MYR 1.05 million

Building funds are estimated to reach about MYR 5 million which we hope to include, utilities connections (water, sewage, drainage, piping, communication lines, electrical connections etc), shelter areas for animals brought in, animal hospital/clinic,workers hostel, shelter necessity storage facility etc.

Upon turning 2 years old, GrASS would seek help through applying for a few of the RSPCA Sponsorship Programmes that have been listed on their site one at a time until each goal has been accomplished where it is needed the most.

News: Guinness Record on BN Stray Dogs...

MALAYSIA SELALU BOLEH !!!     True or not? Believable, we are in Malaysia Boleh land.   If this is true, where do you think the RM700,000 goes into?? Subject: Guinness Record on Stray Dogs: BN Govt pay contractors RM700,000 in Sepang to catch 20,000 stray dogs a month = 666 dogs/day = 1 dog per MINUTE     Will the MACC - Mana Ada Corruption Commission men investigate? Maybe that Salak Tinggi MP should ask this question in Parliament. After all the billions talk in PKFZ, nobody would notice a twenty thousand dog figure worth RM700K reported in The Star on page 7 of Star Metro on Apr 1.   Now PKFZ has been conveniently shelved when billions of Ringgit disappeared into several pockets! The Government think the rakyat are just fools and time will make them forget about this massive corruption scandal!    Too Efficient Lah!!! Dog Day Afternoon.... (way to go for Productivity improvement) As we are striving to improve our incomes and productivity via The NEM to replace NEP, somebody somewhere is already leading us in productivity improvement. On page M7 of The Star's Metro today, there was apparently 20,000 stray dogs caught in ONE MONTH just under the Sepang Municipal Council jurisdiction. It seems that most of the strays were rounded up in Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi. Two contractors were assigned to do the job. The key is that RM35 was paid for each stray rounded up. So we are talking about RM700,000 here... 20,000 dogs divided by 30 days is 666 dogs a day (the number must be sheer coincidence). I assume you work 12 hours a day, which meant that you must round up 55 dogs an hour, or almost 1 dog a minute. One dog a minute! Even if you employ 10 people I doubt very much you can get one dog a minute, mind you, you still have to chase, round up, corner, leash them, and then haul them into the van - how the hell you do one dog a minute?? We should remember that these strays caught will have to be certified by an officer from the Sepang council's environmental health department as well, and we haven't even talked about where they were placed or how were they being treated or euthanised? I would love to see a compound with 20,000 strays because if you do it up a bit, it could be a wonderful theme park/zoo - forget Legoland or Universal Studios. Then I will have to question, does the municipality of Sepang has even 20,000 strays... or is it another redrawing of election district borders? Another thing is, does the municipality of Sepang has even 20,000 living human beings?? Or is Sepang like New Zealand where they have more sheep than humans living there. Then I think we should try for the Guinness Book of World Records as the only bloody place on earth with more dogs than humans!! Malaysia Boleh!!! I shudder to think if the 20,000 figure is one month one off only or has been going on for a few months - if its the latter, then the case is pretty ridiculous, its like the RM2,000 hammer. Don't you think that we have had enough of these corruption nonsense? I think the BN Govt has run out of ideas for corruption! Maybe next time, they'll pay RM10.00 for each cockroach or each ant!!!

 

 

 

 

MDDB: ADOPTION DRIVE - PLEASE FORWARD

ROCKY

MALAYSIAN DOGS DESERVE BETTER will host its monthly adoption drive at the Summit Subang Jaya on Sunday, July 8. A large number of rescued puppies would be put-up for adoption this time around as well. Rocky, who was rescued by Eugene would also be there at the drive. Eugene is desperately looking for a family that would take Rocky in. Rocky was rescued after he was run over by a motorcycle several months ago. One of Rocky's front paw has some permanent damage but the 9-month old puppy is not debilitated by it. We have also some very cute puppies with us. Those wanting to donate rice, dry and canned cat, dog, puppy and kitten food, old newspapers, cages, detergent, bleach, dog and cat shampoo as well as towels can drop them off at the adoption drive. Details call 019-3576477 or 012-3739007.

[Penang] Dog For Adoption: Piky- for rehoming to a good home

Piky is a healthy, good-looking, spayed female dog with good temperament.
 

Dog's Name: Piky

Breed: Cross between Husky and Pit Bull

Birth Date: Nov 2008

Sex: Female

Colour: Grey

Date spayed: 11th Dec 2009

Place spayed: Pejabat Veterinary, Pulau Pinang

Comment: Very active, playful and smart. Highly trainable.

Reason To Give Away: Owner's age is already 67 years and physically not fit to handle and to cope with its growing-up size. It is a pity if Piky cannot come under a better master than myself, it cannot achieve its optimum performance.
