  • Culcul passed away last night

    I went to the clinic early this morning to visit Culcul and was informed that he had passed away last night.  The vet suspects that Culcul could have eaten something caustic and the only treatment was to put him on drips to flush the toxins out.  Unfortunately, Culcul did not make it.  With Julie’s permission,…

  • An appeal from Kota Kinabalu
