UTAR, July 29 (J-on) - Pure grotesque acts of violence toward animals. That seems to be the highlight of a video created by the Biological Science Society in support of their charity event, Paparazzi Night which is taking place on August 6.
The video which ran for slightly above five minutes compiled some very disturbing snippets of inhumane conduct towards pets and strays.
One of these includes the controversial case of the poodle abuse by a Malaysian couple which happened earlier this year.
Dubbed as a charity night to raise awareness on animal cruelty, the event aims to raise money for the Ipoh Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ISPCA).
To date, the animal shelter which is located on the outskirts of Ipoh houses 300 dogs and 100 cats, but has only 6 staffs managing them.
“All profits from this night will be channelled to ISPCA and we hope to get at least 300 participants,” said Tan who added that “each and every cents from the sale of the ticket” can help the animals there.
Tickets are priced at RM35 for non-members and RM30 for members. It includes a 20-dishes buffet course.
Animal lovers who are interested to partake in this event can head on to the society’s booth at Block C to purchase tickets.
Alternatively, you can contact Ms Culene Ko at 010-3700785 or check out their Facebook event page for more information.
