Food that we sell are corn, hot dog bun, nasi briyani and soft drinks while the handmade craft are those bring forward from the previous 3R event that held by PC1/11.

Volunteering at Zoo Negara Malaysia

Due to my elective module, I was assigned with 20 days of volunteering work and I have chosen to work for 7 out of 20 days in Zoo Negara Malaysia.  I went there with a group of my course mate. There are several departments that we can serve as a volunteer. I had worked at Carnivore, Children’s world, Aquarium, Savannas,Holding (Bear) and Mammal Kingdom departments. In different department I have different experiences and will face different kind of animal. The job scope that included in the volunteering work are cleaning the cage, sweeping, preparing toys for animal, preparing food for the animal and of course feeding the animals. Undeniable that serving as a volunteer in Zoo Negara is very tiring and sometime the work can be quite heavy but throughout the process I tried to enjoy the work by interacting with my friends, the workers and the animals. We are also given a chance to get near to the animals such as leopards, hyenas, pumas, rhino and tigers. These precious experiences are simply awesome as we cannot be able to do that if we visited to Zoo Negara as a visitor. Besides that, by witnessing the working attitude of the zoo keeper makes me feel warm. The way they treat the animal with care, love and patience impressed me a lot and make me realised the important of showing care to the animals.

Volunteering in SPCA

I had spent 4 days in Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) which located at Ampang serving as volunteer. The job scopes that I did there are cleaning the cages, feeding the dogs and cats and giving affection and care to the poor abandoned dogs and cats. Looking at those adorable cats and dogs, I personally don’t understand how their owner willingly abandoned them. However, there are still some of it are lost animals. There is one cute 1 year old, snowy white colour dog named Sugar has come to my attention. I still remember on the first day I visited SPCA, it looked so terrified and unsecured hiding at the end of the cage. Sugar was so scared and even avoid from eating when we passed by. However things changes after a few days. In the last day I worked as volunteer in SPCA, Sugar was completely different from the first day. It became friendly and even welcomes the visitor to play with it. I was so relieve to see that and I wish Sugar able to find a loving owner soon. Overall, I had a great experience working as a volunteer in SPCA.
