  • Putting in orders for the last batch of AnimalCare tshirts

    Hi everyone.  I refer to my earlier posting: http://animalcare.my/2011/02/our-last-batch-of-combed-cotton.html My supplier has told me that I really, really have to put in the order for the tshirts before the printers finish their last batch of fully-combed cotton material, so I’d like to thank everyone who has written in to order the tshirts.  We will be…

  • Countess, 3-legged dog, in need of help

    Please refer to earlier posting: http://animalcare.my/2011/02/3-legged-dog-in-need-of-surgery-and.html Today, Roselin and Nandhini brought the dog (now named Countess) to our panel vet for a check-up and subsequent spaying and surgery of the maggot-infested paw.  They also brought her puppies along for deworming.  Our panel vet recommends that bloodwork be done prior to the surgery because Countess appears to…

  • 3-legged dog in need of surgery and help

    Roselin and Nandhini rescued a 3-legged dog who has just given birth to some puppies.  They have sent the dog to be examined by a vet and apparently there is a maggot wound on the stump of the “short leg” and part of the bone and flesh has already been eaten up.  It is festering. …

  • A loving tribute in memory of a great friend, Rusky

    The Wai Family lost their dearest Rusky about two weeks ago.  Rusky came into the Wai family home 13 years ago, brought so much joy and happiness to every family member and departed peacefully at a ripe old age.     Wai Kar Men writes, in loving tribute to their great friend, Rusky, an epitome of unconditional…

  • Qing Qing is pooping!

    Happy poop news, everyone!  Catherina wrote to say that Qing Qing is pooping every day!  That’s really, really great news.  This is probably because she is giving the Lactulose twice daily at a fixed time every day.  Catherina is going to try pumpkin next.  Meanwhile, Qing Qing’s mother (Mei Mei) gave birth to a new litter…

  • 7.48am….4 new kittens for Kwanjit

  • Our last batch of combed cotton AnimalCare tshirts

    Hi everyone, some friends have written to me asking if we would be printing another batch of tshirts.  I’ve just made some enquiries and apparently, cotton price have shot up tremendously and our tshirt supplier now only has “what’s left” of its stock to print our fully-combed cotton tshirts.  Many people (especially ladies) have said they like…

  • Phow Phow spayed

    Phow2 was rescued from the roadside by Elaine before CNY.  Elaine could not find the owner, so after a week, Elaine’s family decided to would adopt Phow2 since their family dog, Toto, seemed to be able to get along with Phow2.  Their family cat is adjusting too. This is the type of fairy-tale ending which we…

  • Of lizards and cats, cockroaches and mozzies!

    Here’s an interesting observation and insightful sharing from Belinda Mosiun: There was a topic on a local radio station today on methods to prevent mosquito bites, and this reminded me of the mentality of our local community. I wonder why is it that people here have a habit of trying to annihilate all living beings…

  • Hockii at his new foster home

    Updates from Julie Pek: Hockii arrived safely from clinic to foster home at 12noon.  He adapted to the place very well.  Later in the evening after work, I fed him and walked him. He ate heartily though with a bit difficulty because of the e collar. He was happy to smell the grass (after three weeks in…

  • Grumbles the Cat needs a home

    This is a request from Jamie Khoo (016 323 9567): Remember the stray cat that “found” me, Grumbles? The one who had sporo-trichosis? After 8 weeks of treatment, he healed very well… but a few weeks later, the sporo flared up again. So he went back on treatment for 11 weeks and has been in…
