  • Zebra up for adoption- adopted!

    Ha ha….I knew you’d click to see if it’s really a zebra that we’ve got! No, we did not go to Africa to capture any zebras.  That’s the last thing we’d do.  The zebras are certainly better off in their natural environment than anywhere else. Zebra is a cat!  He’s got zebra stripes, hence, the name “Zebra”. …

  • Photos from Jack

    Hi everyone.  Panthera has been renamed….Dino! So now, AnimalCare has TWO Dinos!  One more with Terry (the original Dino aka Milo aka Nana, the name he was first given by Amelia, his rescuer), and he is already booked.  I have had quite a few callers asking to adopt Dino, actually.  The little guy has charisma! We’ll…

  • Panthera adopted!

    Another adoption today!  This is Mr Zhu Jidong, an expatriate from China.  He prefers to be called Jack.  So, Jack called me today to ask if I have kittens for adoption. I will ALWAYS have kittens for adoption! I asked Jack if he had any colour preference, and he said actually no, but he would…

  • Suki….lost!!!

    I’m not in the habit of creating suspense, so when I have something to say, I will start from the end.  Suki WAS lost, but now, is found.  (Amazing Grace, how sweet thy sound….) PHEW!!! Now, the story…. I had to go out to give a talk this morning, at about 9.15am, so my husband was…

  • ET is spayed and doing fine

    Here’s ET, one of Aunty Kiew’s wards.  She was spayed yesterday, and is recovering now.  The vet, Dr Koh, has very kindly allowed her to stay until Tuesday so that she has more time to rest and recover at the clinic.  She was also treated for ticks yesterday.  And she had A LOT of ticks! …

  • Suki’s little adventure

    Today, Suki got to go out to the garden to play! Oh wow…!! She was so, so incredibly happy to explore. Bunny, Indy, Mac, Suki (in the flower pot), Bobby Cow and Vixey also came out, but they are not in the photo. Suki exploring the “catwalk” We built this catwalk for the cats, and…

  • The rehoming of Cucu

    Remember Cucu, folks?  The Filipino domestic helper’s cat?  About ten people had called or text me with enquiries about adopting Cucu.  The owner had quite a time interviewing the potential candidates to ensure Cucu goes to the most suitable family who can provide her with lots of love and care.  Today, Cucu has been rehomed…

  • But there are still good people around…

    The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, as the movie title goes…. While there are people who do the most horrendous things to animals, on the other end of the spectrum are also those who have the kindest hearts. While I was at the clinic today, I met a Malay man who was buying a…

  • Three newborns dumped

    These three newborn kittens were dumped at the clinic yesterday.  The person who put them there said he or she would be coming back to collect them and had left a phone number.  But upon calling the number, no one picked up the phone.  The kittens have been there ever since.    They are estimated…

  • A female dog to be spayed

      This is one of the many dogs Aunty Kiew is feeding in the Old Klang Road area.  One of her helpers, Janice, brought the dog to us today, for spaying at our panel vet, at our sponsorship.    The dog is named E.T. and is tame and friendly.    Looking at her sad and frightened…

  • Kittens up for adoption

    Here are two kittens up for adoption.  They were rescued from the street, and have been fostered by Sudhamma for about 4 months now.  Both of them (and another whose picture is not here) are due for neutering and AnimalCare will sponsor the surgeries next week. Whitey (completely white) Brownie (a ginger cat) Whitey and…

  • Little Piggy-Vix

    This is Vixey.  No, she is NOT up for adoption!  My daughter and I rescued Vixey and her brother from a rubbish heap about two years ago, and both of them are part of our big furry family at home.  Vixey turned out to be “retarded”, and has many complicated health problems.  She has kidney and…

  • Super needs a fosterer

    Here’s Super today.  He is still eating well, and the vet (Dr Edmund) feels Super can be discharged already since he is not vomiting and what he needs now is just to be fattened up.  We still do not know what is wrong internally with Super, but let’s focus on the present-moment.  What Super needs now…

  • Handsome little fella up for adoption

    Just take a look at that face, folks.  Isn’t he handsome? This handsome little fella has been abandoned by his owner because he had some illness.  Dr Edmund Yeoh, from Puchong, nursed him back to health and he is now fit and healthy, and up for adoption.  When I met him today, he was barking…
