SINGAPORE: The National Parks Board (NParks) reported no clear evidence of animal cruelty in the case of an injured community cat in Punggol, which later died. Initially investigated as a suspected cruelty case, NParks determined that the injuries were likely the result of a vehicular accident, not a deliberate act. The cat was found injured and subsequently euthanized; NParks has concluded its investigation, urging the public to refrain from speculation regarding similar incidents.

This was the second purported case of cat abuse in a week that NParks has been investigating, after another feline was found dead at Yishun Street 51 with signs of torture. Addressing that case, Ms Kwok said that investigations were still ongoing. “We urge the public not to further speculate on the details of the ongoing case and to verify their information sources. These are crucial in allowing for a fair round of investigation to be carried out.
