Opal Paws

What we do

Five kinds of work, one wish: every animal treated well.

01

Supporting partner shelters

We don't run our own shelters; we support partner dog and cat shelters. Every week we bring them cat food, litter and dog food. Food is always the first thing to run out.

  • Weekly food runs
  • Fresh water on hot days
  • One partner shelter alone has 90 to 100+ animals
Support the Food Programme
  • Bags of cat and dog food unloaded from the car
  • Two dogs sitting patiently, waiting for kibble
  • Two dogs at a partner shelter coming over to say hello

02

Rescue and medical appeals

When we find injured or sick strays, we launch an emergency appeal.

  • Bleeding · sterilisation · vaccines · treatment
  • 450+ strays rescued in a year

Current appeals are posted on Facebook.

Adopt, don't shop. To adopt or sponsor, WhatsApp us first.

04

Memorials

Every life deserves a gentle goodbye.

A farewell for strays

We arrange cremation so they leave with dignity. An appeal is typically RM600.
