Be warned that the domesticated animals could go extinct..

Be warned that the domesticated animals could go extinct.. The SPCA group in Kota Kinabalu looking after the domesticated animals like dogs and cats in animal shelters has sent out an appeal for emergency help for fund to keep the few hundreds of dogs and cats in shelter from closing down. The appeal for fund in the social media also mentioned that SPCA had incurred RM300,000 in neutering these animals as sterilised and return them to the domestic habitat. I would like to take the position that mass neutering of these animals would soon result in the extinction of such pitiful and cute animals like what is happening the wild habitat that wild life of tourism values is also going extinct for various reasons like the natural habitat is no longer there to sustain such wild lives as exacerbated by poaching. If we move around most housing estates , there are hardly any dogs around and extinction is inevitable. I keep unusual number of dogs for the reason that such animals must be appreciated in our midst. There are unfortunately some hidden agenda of certain groups of people who hate dogs. Such attitude will certainly expedite the extinction of dogs. The presence of domesticated animals with positive perception give the public impression that we are humane to animals as well. Coming back to the financial needs of caring for the animals in shelter,that should not a critical issue if we manage our public fund accordingly. There is enough to go round and the Government should start the habit of annual allocation of funds from various major bodies like DBKK, JPJ, the tourism sectors once so good, the Yayasan Sabah with our sort of sovereign fund. The culture of public donation for a very good cause must prevail. The domesticated animals are part and parcel of our society and should never be neglected. For your information, my dogs are fed by charity and that those businesses do very well feeding my dogs as God loves them well. Joshua Y C Kong, 3/3/2022
