  • Poor, poor Rascal

    Rascal got adopted yesterday.  We were all so happy.  Unfortunately, it is just short-lived joy…. Punitha informed me today that the adopter has returned Rascal to her because apparently, Rascal could not get along with her (the adopter’s) cat on the first day. But it’s only been ONE day….  Sometimes my own cats fight for a…

  • Rascal and Minnie, spayed-neutered and up for adoption

    I received this email from Punitha, a pet rescuer.  We’ve helped Punitha before in the past with the cost of the medical treatment for two puppies and also with the adoption of Little Ginger and Blue Eyes.  Read her email below.  It really breaks my heart to know how some people can give up (more…

  • Photo updates on Twinkle and Jingle

    Twinkle and Jingle are twin sisters adopted through our posting.  Their mother, Moonie, was rescued by Julie Pek on a moonlit night when one of the twins were just born.  The next day, the other twin appeared. Twinkle and Jingle were finally adopted by Beverly and her family. Last week, Twinkle and Jingle were sent…

  • Tsunami – what the animals know which we humans don’t

    I think the whole world is quite shaken by the magnitude of yesterday’s 10m high tsunami in Japan causing destruction and death.  It is said in the reports that Japan’s high-tech alert system prevented further devastation, which means, it could have been worse than it is now.  While we empathise with the suffering and loss,…

  • Friday updates on Imm’ Shelter

    It’s been a week now, ever since I first publicised the plight of Phaik Imm, a 64 year-old lady who is managing a shelter which houses 29 cats and 30 dogs.  Imm was in extremely poor health when her plight was brought to my attention.  I would like to thank everyone who has helped in…

  • Two male cats neutered

    Today, Rani sent two more rescued male cats to be neutered under our sponsorship. Here they are, just waking up right after the procedure: Groggy…just waking up. Still out.  Minutes after the procedure. Rani will put them up for adoption.  These two are brothers, and their sister is the black cat whose spaying we sponsored…

  • Sean saves a life!

    Do you remember Sean? He was one of our rescued dogs from the Klang Dog Pound back in 2009.  Sean was found to be distemper positive, we got him treated and my mother fostered him for about 8 months.  My mother teaching Sean to “sit”. I named him “Sean” after the legendary Sean Connery, and…

  • Hope for Toby, the injured kitten

    Please refer to http://animalcare.my/2011/03/toby-injured-kitten.html Emma rescued Toby and brought him to a vet who diagnosed it as a dislocated scapula and the vet said the only solution was to amputate. Thank goodness Emma decided to seek other options by searching through the internet.   Emma wrote to me last week and I recommended Dr Susanna Brida, the vet-acupuncturist, and…

  • Countess goes home!

    It’s been a long journey for Countess, from being rescued from her former “home” where she was clearly neglected with a maggot-eaten paw, to undergoing amputation of the arm and being spayed, and today…finally, Countess gets to go home! I was at the clinic today with Nandhini and Roselin: Nandhini coaxing Countess to come out…

  • Now, THIS…is unconditional loving

    While I was at the clinic today, something caught my eye. Take a look… How cute…four brand new babies suckling and another little kitten nearby the mum-cat.  You’d think they are all her own babies? They are not.  This mum-cat belongs to Rani, and she has been nursing many orphaned kittens for some time now.  The…

  • Another black beauty, spayed

    Rani has been rescuing stray cats and dogs for a long time and we have been assisting her in getting her animals spayed-neutered while she gets them adopted into good homes.  Today, Rani brought another female cat to be spayed under our sponsorship. Here’s BlackCat, a female. BlackCat is up for adoption, so if you’d…

  • Patches, rescued dog, spayed

    Bhajan Kaur has been fostering this rescued female dog, named Patches, for MDDB.  Yesterday, she called me asking if we could assist in the spaying of Patches.  I arranged for an appointment, and Bhajan brought Patches to our panel vet for spaying under our sponsorship today.  Patches, in Bhajan’s house. Patches, right after being spayed…

  • And this is another angel, Meiji

    We have been helping Meiji and her dogs since 2009.  She is currently single-handedly looking after more than 110 dogs at her sanctuary up on a hill in Raub.  I have only been to her sanctuary once, and once is good enough to know just how much she cares for all her dogs.  Photo taken by…

  • This is Imm, the angel to 59 animals

    At long last, I have received ONE photo of Imm, taken by PC when he and his family visited Imm last Saturday.  PC was one of the very first people to respond when I sent out the appeal to help Imm and her 59 animals.  The very next day, he drove up to Ipoh with…
