- CANNED or DRY DOG / PUPPY / CAT / KITTEN PET FOOD - We can never have enough food for the animals! (Prefer Friskies, Pedigree and Alpo)

- PET MILK POWDER (e.g. 'Animalac') - To feed tiny motherless puppies

- FLEA / TICK POWDER OR SHAMPOO / FRONTLINE - To help rid our animals of nasty pests

- LARGE PLASTIC RUBBISH BAGS - There is always mess to clear up!

- OLD TOWELS - To bathe the dogs

- OLD CLOTHES, T-SHIRTS, RAGS / SHEETS - For bedding in cages

- DETERGENT + HAND SOAP + BRUSHES - Any kind will help us to clean cages, wash hands, washing powder for bedding etc.

- CAT LITTER - So our animals have somewhere to go and are house trained

- CANS OF PAINT - White, yellow, or blue paint so our volunteers can keep the shelter looking fresh

- YOUR EXTRA TIME - As a volunteer! Even if you only come once you would be making a difference to these animal's lives...

Check this story and all related! Really sad for the dogs at Pulau Ketam..




Rescue team


Not all Malaysians are uncaring. In fact, some go to great lengths to make personal sacrifices for a good cause.

Pamela Lim Cheng Yoke,

professional diving instructor

“I was editor-in-chief of a new magazine in Malaysia when I heard the story of the Pulau Ketam dogs. I volunteered to help Furry Friends Farm (FFF) on their rescue mission. At first, I couldn’t do much except create awareness through Facebook. In my free time, I would join the rescue team at Pulau Selat Kering.

“As director of rescue operations for FFF, I am often in the thick of the rescue, on the island, in the sea and camping on the nearby kelong.

“The kelong owner and their workers are so kind. They allow us the use of their premises. The workers help by going out with us on their motorboats to rescue dogs and top up feeding stations.

“Despite having their own work to do, these people find the time to help us but their own dog, Kuning, has gone missing. I believe he might have been accidentally retrieved by other groups launching their own rescue missions because Kuning often swims over to Pulau Selat Kering.”

Cheng has posted a photo of Kuning on her blog http://pitch.pummkin.net appealing to whoever took him to please return Kuning as the workers have been so demoralised since his disappearance. Updates on the rescue can also be read here.

Donald G. H. Tan,

retired businessman

“My wife and I help take the rescued dogs back to our house in Klang for a night of rest and recuperation. The next morning, we take them to the veterinary clinic. Then, I co-ordinate with other volunteers to transport them to Furry Friends Farm in Kundang.

“I will never forget the day at Pulau Selat Kering when I noticed a mixed Shih Tzu and Maltese dog looking forlornly at us. She reminded me of my own girl, Xiao Mei.

“I tried so hard to save her because I knew a toy breed like that would never survive the harsh conditions of the island. They would never be fast or strong enough to get to the food first and their long hair is a disadvantage. Alas, she was too afraid and I failed. I cried for days.

“When I see the vets removing flesh-eating maggots from the dogs, I get so angry. It is painful for the dogs, but imagine if we didn’t get to them . . . they would’ve been eaten alive by these maggots, if not cannibalised by the stronger dogs.”

o Tan’s updates on the rescue can be read at http://birdstalkingtoo.blogspot.com/

Adrian Kuah, project executive,

National Kidney Foundation

“I started a forum on Lowyat.net in early May to create awareness. I was amazed when cages, boots, dog food, free boat rental and other offers flooded in.

“I was surprised to receive 1,000 hits in just two days. The public’s kindness touched me deeply and made me all the more determined to rescue the dogs.

“Four college students also joined me, and as a team, we went to the islands to see what we could do. We wanted to see for ourselves which organisation was really doing the work as there are confusing reports of several different parties asking for donations.

“We volunteered our services to FFF and will donate the items people have given us to them.’’

o Visit Kuah’s forum at http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1023541

Shyam Priah,

group marketing and promotions

executive for an on-line publication

“Soon after I organised Sampah Masyarakat last Wesak Day, I heard about the Pulau Ketam dogs and was appalled at how low humans could stoop.

“Sampah Masyarakat was organised to encourage the Malaysian public to care for the environment and weed out this culture of littering.

“Now I’m determined to organise a fund-raising event for Furry Friends Farm (FFF) to support the rescue, recuperation and re-homing of the Pulau Ketam dogs. Cruelty to animals will only result in creating a cold-hearted, apathetic society.

“This fund-raising event will be held sometime at the end of June and will have a carnival-like atmosphere with a charity car wash, jumble sale, cat and dog adoption drive, food sale, workshops and other exciting activities.

“I hope the public will support this cause as it will be in aid of the rescued dogs of Pulau Ketam.”
