  • Peanut, Butter and Chocolate – neutered!

    No, this is not a recipe for a sandwich, but the names of three cats being fed and managed by Mr Chee and his wife, Lin.  The males are Butter (dark grey) and Chocolate (ginger). The female is Peanut (tabby). Mr Chee brought them to our panel vet today, to be spayed and neutered under…

  • A Letter from a Shelter Manager

    I have put this up before, but I need to put it up again (will do so again and again, from time to time).  Please circulate, for the sake of education and creating awareness.  The Klang Dog Pound dogs are due to be euthanised on 15th Dec 2009 if no one adopts them, or if…

  • “How could you?” by Jim Willis

    “How Could You?” Copyright Jim Willis 2001 When I was a puppy, I entertained you with my antics and made you laugh.

  • Let’s be helpful rather than judgmental

    I just wish to make a general comment here, or rather, a suggestion.  In the course of managing this blog and coordinating AnimalCare for the past half year, I have received tons of support from all of you, of which I am incredibly grateful.  However, there are times when I receive a lot of you-should-haves…

  • Suki, after a long rest….

    I’d like to thank everyone who had written in to enquire about Suki, and also to offer your ideas on what had happened and how it should have been done better. Let me assure everyone that Suki is fine now.  She took a long nap after returning from the clinic yesterday, and by midnight, was…

  • Suki’s home!!

    We went to pick up Suki about an hour ago.  According to the vet, her recovery was “quite harsh”.  It seems she banged her head repeatedly on the carrier.  This, according to the vet, is because she’s a highly-stressed kitten.  Poor Suki. Anyway, she’s back home now, and I’ve put her back in her cage. …

  • “A timid kitten”

    The vet called me just now and said Suki looked very timid and fearful.  She also looked very pale.  The vet asked me if Suki is normally a very fearful and timid kitten at home, and I said she is actually the opposite. But to be on the safe side, we got a blood test done, and her…

  • PAWS’ clarification, and our apology

    I received a call from a Mr Edward of PAWS, and he clarified that Megan had never been at PAWS at all.  I wish to apologise for posting the information, which I had received in an (urgent) email from an animal-lover.  She had attached the forum postings about Megan, which I shall now attach below.  It is a puppy.com…

  • Suki is going for spaying today

    Our little Suki is about 5 months old now, so I’ve made an apppointment for her spaying this morning, at 11am.  That’s Suki, mischievous as ever, as all kittens ought to be! She started the day (after complaining about having no food – needs to be fasted for the spaying afterwards) by doing a coup…

  • Today’s event at Jaya One

    It’s been a very long and tiring day.  We promoted our cause at today’s  launching of Pet Owners Club at Jaya One today, and would like to thank everyone who had supported us. Here are some photos: Our booth The Ti-Ratana boys, showing off their dog-handling and training skills. The MNAWF was next door to us,…

  • Megan has already been adopted!

    Great news, folks!  After a wild-goose chase today, we found out that Megan had already been adopted last Monday.  We actually found two adopters (thanks to Jamie Khoo) this morning, and since I was busy at our booth at Jaya One, I enlisted the help of Alice Ong to find out about Megan at PAWS. …
