In 1998 several like–minded volunteers, all passionately fond of animals, came together to consolidate the individual efforts they had been trying to make in South Lantau and Discovery Bay to help stray animals. The increasing number of abandoned dogs, dumped puppies, street cats and their litters of kittens was very distressing and we hoped that we could make a valuable contribution. The name PALS was suggested by a friend who thought the original acronym SLAP (for South Lantau Animal Protection) not entirely appropriate!
Making Hong Kong a No-Kill City
PALS fully supports the Hong Kong No-Kill City Forum initiative.
