As he needs more than S$12,000 for his medical bills, an animal welfare charity is appealing for donations to cover the costs.
Local charity Causes for Animals – Singapore (CAS) posted about the plight of Nuan Nuan on Facebook on Sunday (28 Jan).
According to CAS, the canine’s usual feeder found him weak and limping in Punggol.

The group brought Nuan Nuan to the vet, where the doctor found that he had fractures in both hind legs.
This was apparently the result of the dog being involved in two hit-and-run accidents.
After the accident, Nuan Nuan “wobbled into the bushes” and was “left for death” there, CAS said.

To fix Nuan Nuan’s injuries, S$12,000 is needed, CAS said.
On top of that, the canine will also need physiotherapy after the treatment.
This is so that he can regain the ability to walk effectively, CAS explained.
The group is now appealing for donations from the public to help foot Nuan Nuan’s medical bills.
According to the Emergency Aid Appeal on CAS’ website, those who wish to help may donate via PayPal, PayNow, Internet banking, ATM or cheque.
As CAS has Institution of Public Character (IPC) status, donations of at least S$10 qualify for a 250% tax exemption.
If the funds they receive exceed Nuan Nuan’s medical bill, the surplus will be funnelled to animals under their community care programme.
Visit CAS’ fund-raising page to find out how to donate.
