We need to advocate for and demand that RESPONSIBLE pet ownership is upheld, rather than to put in place an unreasonable blanket ban. Cats can easily be kept indoors as long as they are provided a conducive environment (no caging, which is inhumane). Sterilisation prevents caterwauling and adequate play time ensures the cat is kept happy. Progressing and improving as a nation also means doing better as a society towards our animals.

If there should be restrictions on pets, then it should be restrictions on breeds that are unhealthy like bulldogs which are born with difficulty breathing for the rest of its life, and is just cruel or are not suited to this climate, like huskies which are bred to live in snow and run miles per day. So unless you can keep your flat at less than 20C, you are literally torturing a husky, and if you don't run with them for 10 km a day, you are going to have an obese husky.

So glad im living in a place where I am allowed to keep my cats. I rescued mine when they were a few weeks old. They are neutered, vaccinated and litter box trained. I keep them indoors as i think since we live in the city, the environment is unsafe for them to wander around unsupervised. On top of keeping them safe, there is the added advantage of being able to control where they poo and pee so that neighbours are not disturbed. My cats are my faithful companions who have helped me cope with living alone, keeping me company during the pandemic when many activities outdoor were halted, keep the house vermin free and generally improve the living space by bringing joy with their cute antics and one of a kind personalities. Having them have also made me and hubby work harder to afford a bigger place for them to roam and purchase good quality proteins since they are raw fed. From a small apartment, we are now living in 3 storey house which gives them ample place to explore and run around. I can go on and on about the positives that caring for my 2 furballs have brought into our lives😊. The underlying principle however IMO is responsible pet-ownership. At the end of the day they are animals with limited faculties and set creature-oriented habits. It is up to us to use our brain on how to manage them so that we can co exist in peace.

cats control rodent population, plus theyre great stress reliever. I feed more than 30 stray cats daily in our country, and many people do the same. There was one instance when the security team of shangrila hotel in very upscale BGC ordered all stray cats within their property be caught and brought far away and leave them to fend for themselves. A big portion of the BGC community including foreigners and foreign ambassador wives staged protests to bring back the cats, they also asked that the security team be sanctioned. Some of the cats were recovered, some were lost forever. Now the cats are free to roam in the upscale community, volunteers come to feed them and give vet care. All are neutered and of course all are up for adoption. Now the cats have their own fb page and has become a tourist attraction

I have seen cats running away from rodents. Yes, our Singapore cats are well-fed andwell-pampered, they don’t need to be hunters anymore. So l don’t think we can rely on solely cats to police the rodent population. Everyone and the authorities are responsible for the preventative measures. Cat lovers, dog lovers, snake lovers, etc can have FB pages and even create mini zoos for their animal loves, but it’s not tenable to have the entire island of hdb estates to become tourist attractions for the creatures - especially not everyone has the same quirks.

You took away their natural instinct to hunt when you keep feeding them which actually hurt nature's eco system. Do you seriously think they still go after rodents? The same goes for other animals, if you keep feeding birds, they become bold and start to fly into homes searching for scraps. Do you seriously think you are doing the right thing? Yes, to be kind...you can help an injured animal and nurse them for a while, it's good, but if u make it a habit to keep pampering them, you are doing more harm to us and to nature than you think.

The ‘fact’ about cats pooing and peeing is just so incomplete. Do dogs not poo and pee? Cats are known to be very clean animals. Dog owners take their dogs out to pee and poo in public places and a good number of dog owners don’t observe some common ‘rules’ like picking up after your dog poo and spraying some water with detergent on dogs’ urine. I’d say in the interest of animal safety, that if cat ownership is allowed, cat owners in high rise apartments should have safety measures in place.

Ok can, but also don't forget to ban bicycles, dogs, and babies and hammers in HDB too. Bicycles almost knocked me down like 3 times already, danger to society. Dogs are noisy and too many irresponsible owners letting their dogs poop and pee every where in the void deck. So sickening. Ban babies especially because they cry all night I can't even sleep buay tahan. My neighbour everyday dk doing what, hammer hammer hammer. Think they running some kind of business in their house. I can't even do my work-from-home it's driving me nuts. Ban all hammers. Thanks PAP.

Should ban cats & dogs in flats. If it's banned , people don't dare to be openly offensive & be mindful that their neighbours have to tolerate noise etc.. if they need to keep pets. Flats (&; communal spaces) are getting smaller & don't make life more difficult with pets all over...

The restriction on keeping cat is real for people staying in public housing in Singapore. Just that most of us don't follow, I'm one of them. As long as our neighbours don't lodge a formal report to the authority and our cats behave well, usually nothing will happen :) for example, once my cat loitered along a common corridor and went into my neighbour's apartment. They complained to the authority who called me to restrain my cat within my apartment to resolve the complain. I was given advice and so far no more issue.

I live with 10 cats and they're neutered, vaccinated and potty trained. We also have a few straye and yes they do defecate outside of the litter box but that problem resolved when we realized their litter trays were less than the cats. Cats are manageable and are excellent company, not to mention supremely intelligent. What fcking nonsense policies Singapore has. Glad its being reversed. There's more to life than money and a high flying career - taking care of animals is fulfilling beyond anything else. Hope their government understands that.

N to all cat complainers, whichever u complain....once u complained, tat owner will have no choice but to let loose the cat, which in turns becomes a stray in ur void deck....isn't it the same, they will still defecate everywhere🤦♀️....

Full disclosure : There are like a dozen cats in and around my house. I don't consider myself their owner but rather someone sharing the space - we coexist - they mind their business and I, mine. It's a tragedy that the existence of every animal n plant is at the mercy of Humans. We make the rules for their existence. We crossbreed them as per our desires - like a master puppeteer. Quite a lot of species are already extinct. I wonder if we are indeed a plague on this planet that we call home.

Singapore government don't really use common sense.. They prefer to follow legacy, if it's been like that since our grandfather days, there's no need to change. It's been shown from cat behavior experts that cats prefer a familiar environment, are very sanitary and easily trained. The problem is when people adopt elderly stray outdoor cats who are not neutered and don't take measures to prevent wandering. Outdoor cats who have established familiarity and comfort with outdoors, will continue to want to roam. Whereas cats who have been kept indoors, naturally do not want to roam. Cats also have a need to bury their defecation and hide their scent. Which animal doesn't shed fur? Talk cock.. I agree unneutered cats are very noisy but this is a neutering issue.. Dogs on the other hand, bark all the time without proper training, why don't you guys enforce that all domestic dogs and their owners must undergo mandatory obedience training before being licensed to stay in a HDB? Do you know how noisy it is for dogs to be barking everytime someone walks past their unit?

They pee, poo? So like any other pets? Cats don’t even bother to leave their beds let alone go outside. You won’t even know someone has a cat until they tell you or go into their house. Even so, they are more likely to hide when they see you bcs they don’t like strangers. As compared to dogs who can poo anywhere (don’t even need litter) when they are out for a walk and bark loudly, that is allowed? I have seen a small dog suddenly tried to lash out furiously at a random man passing by. Lucky the owner was pulling the leash. But this Louis ok lah at least he does something. Just admit the reasons for banning were stupid and unfair.

Fairest comment. Most ppl here lean towards cats. Only reasonable people are able to see things from all angles. They aren't unfair. That said, I see more stray cats than dogs around hdb. People don't report when they see a cat on the street because we are so used to it as they have always been a common sight and some ppl know they can get away with being irresponsible simply bc ppl will just walk past them. While if it's a dog, some will already call SPCA or bring it home.
