  • Kelly’s story

    Kelly wrote to me sometime last year to ask how she should care for a mother-cat who frequented her house.  One thing led to another and today, Kelly is the proud owner/friend of a whole family of cats!  Kelly has even so generously offered to share whatever she knows about handling kittens with anyone should…

  • Two more angels to our furry friends

    If you remember, sometime in March 2010, a kind Malay man who went by the name of Papa Meow adopted Lucky, one of our rescued dogs.  Lucky was rescued by a kind Malay boy called Faris, sent to us for treatment, fostered by Mandy’s family, but it was quite difficult for us to get Lucky rehomed.  Papa…

  • A female dog spayed

    Mr Wong is another animal rescuer.  Yesterday, he sent a rescued female dog to be spayed under our sponsorship.  Mr Wong has already taken the dog back and will release her after full recovery.  This is how TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) works in many countries.  But in many countries, the authorities understands that a neutered animal (usually…

  • Updates on Tara

    Here’s updates from Annee, on Tara: The second jab, Tara treated everything as normal as I think she must have got used to it after the first one. She was very good having the jab, not a sound and very well behaved, and bleeding has stopped and she is just like normal now, eating and…

  • A second opinion on Qing Qing

    Please refer to http://animalcare.my/2011/02/helping-qing-qing.html I have obtained a second opinion on Qing Qing after our panel vet viewed her X-Rays and read the details given by Catherina.  I am writing this based on my layperson understanding of what the vet said, and this is by no means veterinary advice for any cat with a similar condition.  Kindly…

  • Kwanjit is fine and the house is ready…

    Kwanjit is the pregnant female cat rescued by Dr Veeranoot in Section 14 PJ about a week ago: http://animalcare.my/2011/02/dr-veeranoot-to-rescue.html Dr Veeranoot has been updating me, and Kwanjit is used to the house now.  She has also been examined by the vet and has been dewormed and sprayed for fleas.  The vet discovered that she had mouth…

  • Updates on Qing Qing

    Catherina emailed today to say that Qing Qing has defecated!  That’s a big relief for both of us.  I was telling Catherina how I administered the enema for Vixey when she had trouble defecating due to an injury (or congenital anatomy defect) similar to Qing Qing’s. Catherina observed that Qing Qing defecates every 4 days. …

  • Updates on Hockii

    Julie Pek has volunteered to foster Hockii!  Today, Julie visited Hockii at his boarding place and she said Hockii bonded well with her.  The vet said Hockii cannot be discharged yet as his two wounds have not healed completely.  The vet thinks Wednesday is possible.  I asked Julie, and I received.   Thank you, Julie!    Now,…

  • Tara’s TVT jabs

    Do you remember Tara?  She was one of the 36 dogs we rescued from the Klang Dog Pound in December 2009 and was diagnosed with distemper.  We brought her back from Bentong, got her treated (she was hospitalised, on the drip), my mother fostered her for some months before we got her adopted by Annee’s family.…

  • Helping Qing Qing

    Sometime before Chinese New Year, Catherina Tay from Melaka wrote to me asking for advice for a little kitten (now named Qing Qing) whom she had rescued from the street.  Apparently, her local vet told her Qing Qing had some fractures that needed to be X-rayed but none of the vets in Melaka had an…
