Spending Quality Time with rescued stray animals was fun and exciting for 11 Grade 4 and Grade 5 students from the Mont Kiara International School, Selangor. 2 parents and 3 teachers accompanied the 11 children in this real fun visit to Furry Friends Farm on the 15th November, 2009.
 
Children are excited and delighted to have a direct interaction with the animals and  to cuddle and pet the cats, kittens and puppies. They learn how to cuddle cats, kittens and puppies, feed the cats and puppies , identify the males and females of puppies and coax the  cats and kittens with toys they have brought along.
 
The animals seemed to be excited as well with the donated toys and special treats of canned food. The children, teachers and parents enjoyed very much interacting with the animals and looked forward to plan for more visits to the animals in future as part of the school's interesting Animal Welfare Education.
 
We would like to Thank Miss Rebecca Simpson, Miss Lorri and Miss Pearly for taking the initiative in organizing the Animal Welfare Educational Tour for the kids and parents.

Children are given the opportunity to interact with the animals. The direct interactions activity have given both the children and the animals a sense of confidence in approaching each other  without feelings of stress.

Group discussions for the children in sharing their feelings with the two months old puppies.
Children were encouraged to think of some nice names for the four puppies after learning to identify the male and female puppies. The children were very excited to cuddle the cute puppies. As the children were busying with their discussions, a grey cat managed to take its chance in tasting the Yummy puppy food as well.

It is a common scene to see stray dogs being fed and kept by squatter dwellers in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor.

In one of the recent investigations by two animal lovers at the site of Sungai Besi, two young stray dogs were seen being kept in unhealthy environment without proper food and clean drinking water. The brown male dog was emaciated. Two Animal Lovers managed to approach the Chinese family whom was willing to receive animal welfare education as regard to the upkeep of the two stray dogs.

Furry Friends Farm was being informed and a visitation was carried out on the 15th November 2009. The main purpose was to bring the two dogs for medical check up, vaccination, deworming, heart-worm checked and neutered.

The black female dog, named Winnie will be returned to the squatter home with a condition that an area to be fenced up for the dog to move about freely.

The family is willing to surrender the male dog due to financial constraint and they have agreed to contact Furry Friends Farm when they have to be evacuated from the present place and to be relocated in a flat later.

Animal Lovers have played a very important role in this episode . They identified the dogs and the place, made friendly conversations to the dogs' Guardian and contacted Furry Friends Farm to assist in accepting the animals should the family has decided to give the dogs away. The two Animal Lovers have agreed to sponsor all the dogs medical bills and to support the dog surrendered to Furry Friends Farm.

We are very glad to have the opportunity to work with dedicated Animal Lovers to provide Animal Welfare Education to the dogs' Guardians in this squatter area and have successfully taken care of the welfare of these two dogs.
