Pets and farm animals in Singapore: what to check first

Updated 4 November 2026

Confirmed price ranges for live animals in Singapore are not available yet, because the price search for this category returned mostly toys and decor rather than animals. For pets and livestock the price depends on the kind of animal, its age and its purpose, so the quickest way to current offers is a free request on BlaBlaPrice.

• The kind of animal: dogs, cats, aquarium fish, pet birds, rodents, reptiles or farm animals are priced differently.
• Adoption listings, such as pets free to a good home, carry no price.
• Age, purpose (pet, breeding or farm) and the number of animals.
• Whether food, kennels, runs or veterinary medicines are included.

Rules for keeping animals

The Code of Animal Welfare sets minimum standards for animal housing, management and care, and pet owners are expected to follow it. The Animals and Birds Act covers the standards of housing, bedding, sanitation, ventilation, feeding and watering. Pet owners also register the microchip and obtain an AVA pet licence, so ask the seller for the microchip number before you agree on a price.

Imported pets and endangered species

Before you buy an imported reptile or bird, check the Endangered Species (Import and Export) Act, because penalties under it have been raised. Shelters now have the first official guidelines on minimum standards for animal healthcare and housing, which is a useful reference when you ask a seller how animals are kept. Ask to see the housing before you pay.

Season and the heat

Singapore is hot all year, with wet and dry seasons instead of winter and summer, so housing needs shade and ventilation in every month rather than only in one season. Kennels and runs should be checked for drainage and airflow, since the standards for housing cover ventilation and bedding.

Delivery, collection and units

Agree where the animal will be collected, in Singapore, Tampines, Jurong West, Woodlands or Ang Mo Kio, and ask how it will be transported. Supplies follow metric units: kennel and run sizes in metres, livestock feed in kilograms and aquarium tanks in litres. Say these measurements in your request, so sellers quote the right item.
