  • Itsy bitsy news

    Hi everyone, 1.  As of now, I have received calls and text messages from six people who are interested in adopting the Norwegian Forest look-alike cat, Cucu.  The owner has decided to interview the potential adopters herself, so I have directed all the potential adopters to her.  I hope Cucu finds a good and loving…

  • Super’s news

    Hi everyone.  Yesterday, we were all practically mourning (some of us were crying) over Super’s plight.  Everything seeemed so bleak for the poor little fellow.  We decided to let another vet examine Super, just to seek a second opinion.  So the rescuer brought Super to another vet.  A simple blood test was taken.    Today, the…

  • Energy healing for Super?

    Dear all, Terry shared with me something interesting today.  We were discussing Super’s case, and Terry said they had also recently rescued a dog who also appeared to be dying.  It was a case of heartworm.  The dog was in a terrible state for about a week, literally dying.  And all Terry did was energy-healing, and…

  • We have no public holidays

    When you’re doing animal rescue work, there are no such things as public holidays!  Here’s Terry with a 2-3 week-old kitten just rescued tonight.  I’ve just passed Terry the milk powder, feeding bottle and all the paraphernalia that a little kitten needs.  Terry will be fostering the little fellow. She (or he?) is a ginger…

  • Osim’s wound is actually healing

    Today, I brought my Aunty and Osim for a second opinion at one of our regular vets.  According to this vet, Osim’s wound is actually healing and the surrounding skin which is hairless is all scar (and not skin).  This means, his wound had actually been a much bigger patch previously and has healed until…

  • No surgery for Super

    There will be no surgery for Super.  His condition took a turn for the worse this morning and the rescuer has made the decision not to proceed as the chances of Super surviving the surgery are extremely slim. I visited Super today at the clinic.  He responds to people and tries very hard to get…

    Hi everyone.  My friend, Dr Tan, from Singapore, has offered to help Osim with some recommendations on the dressing material used for his wound.  Dr Tan is a human doctor with an interest in Geriatrics so he deals a lot with wounds.  Wounds in animals and in humans may not differ that much.  Dr Tan’s…
