SPCA Penang (GPS: 5.39588, 100.31949) or Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is an organisation created specially to look after the welfare of animals. It is located on Jalan Jeti Jelutong in Jelutong, Penang. The SPCA was founded in 1948, and was originally known as the RSPCA or Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, being associated with the RSPCA of the United Kingdom. Founded in 1824, the RSPCA is today the oldest and biggest animal welfare organisation in the world.
The mission of SPCA Penang is to generate greater awareness of animal welfare. This it does through public education on responsible pet ownership. The organisation often provides shelter to abandoned animals, including those that are not well. Although the SPCA does not like to put animals to sleep, it is sometimes compelled to do this. Thus people who are going to leave their animals with the SPCA have to accept that there may be circumstances where the SPCA may have to perform euthanasia on the animals. To avoid having animals being put to sleep, the members of the public are encourage to adopt animals which are in the care of SPCA.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
