I was really happy to see this letter - and an acknowledgement that where sterilised cats are part of the community, the population has decreased!

I love bookshops with cats - and here are a great list of cats in bookstores. I like that there are now bookstores in Singapore with cats too :)

Cat stuck in Glue Trap

Here's more information on the poor cat stuck in a glue trap. One wonders what on earth they were trying to trap with a glue trap that large. Despite the fact that rodents MAY cause health problems, there is no reason any animal should be caught in a glue trap. Also, how does the AVA ensure that any other animals caught must be brought to the vet and/or rinsed off with baby oil? Glue traps should just be banned, period.

Glue Trap

Many of you have probably seen this posting off the SPCA's Facebook page about the cat stuck in the glue trap. Please do write in - not only to the AVA but also to your MP or to Khaw Boon Wan or Tan Chuan Jin to ask them to ban glue traps.

Bird 'nuisance'

Thanks to yskat for sending me this article. It's such a shame that birds are viewed as such nuisances that they are dealt with in this manner. I also did not realise they also shoot pigeons. Ironically, the photo of the bird posted on this page is also not a mynah, crow or pigeon. It is an oriole.
