The animals saver in Old Klang Road - Aunty Kiew

Please meet Aunty Kiew, an unsong heroine, who is also the main driver behind the force.

Aunty Kiew is a true animal lover. She has one dog and one cat staying with her in her apartment. So, what is so big deal?? Well, she also feeds around 40 stray dogs and 30 stray cats every day, with no fear of rain or sun, in her neighbourhood nearby in Old Klang Road!!

Aunty Kiew is a forty something lady who is not working. The food she feeds the dogs and cats come from her pocket money from her husband. She is the kind of person that will spend the last RM10 of money she has for the animals even if she is in hunger. Aunty Kiew stays in Old Klang Road behind the Esso petrol station. Her daily chores starts by going to the market in the early morning to buy raw chicken neck, chicken head and other organ parts that are unwanted by some household. She will then de-skin the chicken and sorted it out for cooking (a little story of the reason she has to de-skin and cook the meat separately is because her kitchen caught fire once due to the chicken fat that spilt out from the pot when she put everything in to boil) . This is done at around 11am. When it is about 2pm, she will start cooking rice and mix with dog kibbles.



When you ultimately see her in the evening at around 6pm (without fail), she is with a big pail of rice (note, this is the type of pail that we used to put our laundry or for filling up water in the toilet) mixed with cooked chicken and dog kibbles. She can easily be recognised in a big pink hat and long sleeves shirt and pants with whole body covered (because she has to go inside the bushes to feed some timid dogs). She will also carry a big bag containing cat foods, ready for distribution to the "beloved residents", the stray dogs & cats. The dogs and cats will normally wondering around every corner outside the apartment at this hour, including along the road side, bushes area and some around the temple nearby. Aunty Kiew will then lay down newspapers and put the food for them to eat.



If you love cats and dogs, this is a very touching scene that is filled with love and passion. She has been doing this for the past 3 years till present. Now the problem is that, these locations are not of quite areas. DBKL dog catcher team normally comes 1 or 2 times in about less than 2 months period. This is her biggest fear.

As Aunty Kiew is single-handedly feeding and raising the animals, her capability is very limited. So, if you think you are able and would like to help the dogs and cats, you can consider to foster/adopt them or sent aunty Kiew in kinds. She can be contacted at 016-3579604. She welcomes any forms of help. Aunty Kiew only speaks Cantonese, Malay or Hokkien. Aunty Kiew does not drives.
