All reports will be investigated and advised accordingly. The Department of Veterinary Services will then follow up on the case in the following weeks. The failure of the owner to improve the standard of living for the animal will result in the case being charged under Animal Welfare Act 2015.
We investigate cases like:
Neglected/abused pets
Poisoned pets or stray animals
Abandoned pets
Emergency rescues
Puppy mill rescues
Recreational facilities rescues
Wildlife captivity rescues
Our inspectorate department also handles a variety of other tasks like emergency rescues of injured animals in need of medical attention.
Apart from that, our officers actively investigate and follow up on complaints of mistreatment or neglect of animals in zoos, horse-riding facilities, farms, and other recreational facilities. Finally, the Inspectorate department represent SPCA Selangor at meetings with local councils and the DVS on humane stray/pound management.
