Why are the prices of pets falling in Singapore?

- Опубликовано: 31 дек 2024
- Prices of pets like puppies and kittens have dropped by as much as 40 per cent. Pet stores say this is because people have less time and money for pets. Competition among stores is also driving prices down. But animal welfare organisations are warning against impulse buying, which could lead to abandoned pets.

i have 2 cats that i adopted. they don’t have a price tagged to them, they are invaluable.
Yeah, I got my cat for free. My mom's work friends family have a farm where one of their cats had kittens.
Lies again? Adopted Homes Pets Babies
Government should introduce a tax for these pet industries in order to encourage more adoption of strays
i don't think people will start adopting even if thats the case
5000 to 8000 to buy a pet ? China the most cost 700rmb.
The news should announce to adopt at SPCA…
agree 👍👍👍👍👍
pet store > for just supplies
end the sick mania around
discounts on live pets, status symbols, "new arrrivals", designer pets and mills
Exactly!
It's time that those cut throats pet shop owners realize their greediness. Puppies and kittens were sold at exorbitant prices to the extent of ten of thousands. I hope the prices will come down to less than a thousand averagely like those days where you can get a pure breed puppy for $800.
And what’s wrong with mongrel puppies?
good. please adopt, don't buy.
yes
👍👍👍👍👍
A bunny was going at $800 at my local pet store nuts
Singapore getting so expensive...having a pet is like taking care of another human being....
Well I’m sorry for the random message I was wondering if you will be open to any business opportunities??
My neighbor's children wanted a cat for a pet. Heard from his wife telling my wife that it cost a few thousands at the pet shop. So, one weekend her husband and I went down to the void deck, scoop up a stray, brought it to a pet groomer and then gave it to his children and said we got it at a pet shop at a discount😁
Nice
Even the pet price is down, don't forget to upkeep a pet is not cheap, the pet food is not cheap, going to vet is not cheap, who going to take care your pet when u go for vacation
S$ 8k for a Poodle dog. ?! Damm.....
wonder what happen to those unsold pets.
Dumped unceremoniously on the streets
Bak kut teh
Probably sell cheaper or half price
Cooked
I believe is put to sleep. All this exotic pets are breed from a mill.
Most expensive pets in the world
DO NOT BUY PETS - PLEASE STOP BUYING - ADOPT PETS - GIVE THEM A HOME - NOT 'OWN' THEM AS PROPERTIES ! PLEASE LEARN TO CHANGE - PETS ARE NOT PROPERTIES !
With that price it's only for the rich
CNA’s opening statement “getting a furry companion is not as expensive….” objectifies these animals and reduces them to mere commodities. As an established news outlet, the news angle should be on responsible ownership and genuine love for animals, but this report seems like an announcement for cheap pets. It is disappointing.
Could be signs of money no enough and lowering on the Quality of Life.
These days, the pocket feels the pain. $100 go out like buy nothing.
Will we be able to cope when the price of gasoline hike to $4 per litre while India getting it at $1??
Pet stores should be banned everywhere.
I AGREE AND HOPE TO SEE THIS A REALITY SOONER THAN LATER 👍
Totally AGREE!
Last time poodle around $500
An animal companion is a lifelong responsibility. suggest going to your local shelter to adopt. The animals there deserve warm and loving homes.

Good luck singaporeans, human dogs love animal dogs
how about adoption rate?
what do you think?
Cheap affordable
Why buy when you can adopt?
Singaporean finding it hard to raise themselves pets don't suit average singaporean 😢
If you can't afford your pet, just leave it in a park.
Adopt not buy
😊
No pets. No children. No car. No credit card. No housing loans. No ah long debts. No boss. Happily retired. Singaporeans love to work. Till death i suppose. Happy working.
let us focus on breeding humans instead
Haha… alot of sporeans like to complain about govt taxing this and that…. But never think when they splurge on unnecessary stuff…. I am so happy to save my $$$ during covid and now enjoy 5% risk free returns from my savings
STOP BUYING PETS ALREADY!!! PICK ON UP OFF THE STREET & CHANGE A LIFE!!!! SERIOUSLY. We have 7 rescue dogs, 4 of which are pit bull dogs that people try to buy from us every time we go to the river walk. All free. All found on roads, alleys & jobs. STOP BREEDING & BUYING DOGS!!!!!
Y E S
thats right !!!!! 👍
you must be an american and not know that in singapore we rarely have strays on the streets.
Adopt from Malaysia ‘s strays
