  • The little rafts we build and use

    As I go through today, seeing to the wellbeing of the 8 dogs we’ve brought back for treatment and nursing, I need this piece of wisdom to give me that extra boost of energy to go on… Thought of the Day – by Eknath Easwaran Ah! would the heart but be a manger for the…

  • Sean is now boarding in a bathroom

    Instead of being all alone upstairs, Sean was moved down to a bathroom when I visited him this evening.  I had cooked chicken for Sean and Jackie.  Both loved the chicken to bits! Jackie (photo taken this morning) Sean still has diarrhoea, though.  I hope he will get well soon, with medication and care. Sean and…

  • KlangBoys’ initiative to help AnimalCare

    I just came back from a two-and-a-half hour discussion with our tshirt designers on fund-raising ideas.  It’s not easy coordinating even a small group like AnimalCare, you have to take care of so many things, from the actual rescue work, caring for the animals, raising funds, managing the funds, running stockcheck of tshirts after every…

  • Of humans, dogs and miracles

    Just this morning I was writing about needing wisdom to keep me going when suddenly a bomb was dropped on me.  The fosterer who had promised to take in Sean (the dog with distemper) told me he did not want to do it anymore.  That’s it.  No apologies, no offers to help me look for…

  • Urgently required – fosterer for Sean

    Sean is one of the two dogs with distemper (from the Klang rescue).  The other is Tara and my parents have adopted her, and is nursing her now.  Sean is presently boarding at a clinic, but the clinic has told me they would like Sean to be discharged after three days’ treatment (today is the third…

  • Wisdom is needed to keep us going

    This Klang rescue has really taken a toll on me.  Not only did I come down with flu after the three-day rescue, but the emotional upheaveals that came after discovering some were sick (two with distemper) was something unexpected.  I never knew we would have to bring back any sick dog.     Many other unexpected issues…

  • While we were away…CNRM went on

    While we were away in Bentong, Terry was holding fort on the homefront. We had four cats spayed.  Here’s Terry’s report: Above are the pics of Mr. Khoo’s cats. The younger one (grey tabby) was quite stressed and kept hopping around inside the cage. Initially, Dr. Khor didn’t want to spay her as she seemed…

  • Jackie is improving too

    I went over to Dr Khor’s clinic to settle the bill for the spaying and also to look in on Jackie (the one with the eye wound – we brought her back a day earlier).  Jackie is getting better already.  We will put her up for adoption later.  Left my camera in the car, so no…

  • My mum adopts Tara!!

    My mum has decided to adopt Tara!  According to mum, a few days ago, she had a vision in her mind that a dog would come into her life, and it looked like an alsatian.  Yesterday morning I told her about Tara and asked if she would be interested to foster her for the duration…

  • The twosome at OKR

    Yesterday, we brought two more males (both black) back for treatment (suspected of being sick), and Lisa managed to get us two boarding spaces at her vet at Old Klang Road.  Unfortunately, one was diagnosed with distemper and corona virus.  The other is clear.  (yesterday, we thought that both were diagnosed with distemper – not so). …

  • The foursome at PAWS

    Yesterday, we brought back 7 dogs from Bentong, suspected to be unwell.  Four were boarded at PAWS, thanks to Edward’s kind offer.  We went to visit today, to feed them some cooked chicken, and to give them their medicine.  This is the little one I was most worried about.  Yesterday, when they arrived in the…

  • Miniature pinscher up for fostering

    This is a 10 year-old purebred female miniature pinscher.  She was surrendered at PAWS.  She has a mammary gland tumour but is too old to undergo surgery.  She also has a cataract in one eye.  PAWS is currently looking for a fosterer to give her a more comfortable life so that she need not be euthanised.  PAWS’ manager,…
