A newly opened cat park, Taman Kucing Cyberjaya, which finished building in January 2023, with facilities such as an office, a vet clinic, an intensive care unit, a rehabilitation unit and a treatment unit, now houses about 31 cats.
The park even has the capacity to house 300 cats and is open to visitors from 9 am to 5 pm.
According to The Sun, the park was officiated by Tengku Permairuri of Selangor Tengku Permairuri Norashikin last Saturday (18 March).
During the ceremony, she released several cats from their cages as a symbolic gesture and spent time in the park with some of the furry friends.
The Sepang Municipal Council chairman, Datuk Abdul Hamid Hussain said the purpose of the park was to provide shelter to stray cats around the Sepang district to ensure that the animals are protected.
A number of strategies have been drawn up for the park, including appointing a panel of part-time veterinarians, holding a spay and neuter programme and an ‘adoption and release’ programme, he told BERNAMA.
The cat park ultimately serves as a transit for stray cats and visitors can adopt cats to bring home if they’re interested.

This is the coolest thing ever! We’re glad that Malaysia is finally in the right direction of caring for our stray animals.
