'Tiger Show' by Cat Welfare Society!


The Cat Welfare Society will be hosting a week-long event from 21 - 28 February 2010 provocatively titled 'Tiger Show'.

The event, held in conjunction with the birth of the Year of the Tiger, welcomes the lunar new year in celebration of our humble Community Cats and aims to bring together people from all walks of life that have a passion for animal welfare, as well as a soft spot for our feline friends.

The CWS envisions this year to be one where
  1. sterilisation is fully supported by AVA and all Town Councils
  2. responsible cat owners show that cats should and must be allowed to be kept as pets in HDB flats
  3. there is less intolerance for community cats, hence less abuse
