  • Another cat with diaphragmatic hernia (Mrs Goh’s cat)

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/04/spaying-operation-cancelled.html Mrs Goh brought a female to be spayed under our sponsorship but it was discovered that the cat was not fit to be spayed.  The vet called me last night to inform me that upon further investigation, it is another case of diaphragmatic hernia (again!) Surgery is possible, but it is high-risk.  In…

  • Many thanks to Andy Koh of Petfinder.my

    I am a total IT-ignoramus.  100% illiterate.   Ever since purchasing our domain name, I’ve realised “animalcare.my” does not work.  It only works with the “www.” preceding it.   I didn’t know why and I didn’t know how to solve it…..until Andy Koh of Petfinder.my wrote to me yesterday and offered help.   Voila….he’s got it done now!   So,…

    The appointment for Horsey’s amputation had been made for today and fosterer Lydia has also re-scheduled her appointments to meet Horsey when she arrives today.

  • Photo updates of little Jackie, the lucky Melaka kitten!

    Catherina wrote to say Jackie is back to normal now, happy, playing, eating and having lots of fun….after that terrible ordeal of having been trapped in an empty shoplot for three days. It was an ordeal for us too! She has a few cuts on her face because she was trying to get out from…

  • Ginger’s second mange jab

    While we were at Sunway Pyramid, Alex brought Ginger for his second mange jab: I took Ginger for her 2nd jab yesterday. There was a lot of pets and owners in the clinic yesterday so I waited for a bit. (Ginger even fell asleep in the carrier!) Her 2nd jab went smoothly without much fuss,…

  • Ginger male cat, neutered (Aznah Gulam Mydin’s)

    A few days ago, Aznah Gulam Mydin sent another cat (a male) to be neutered under our sponsorship.  See?  I’m a happy cat.  Neutered, but happy!  We neutered male cats are not so aggressive and we won’t get prostate cancer so easily when we’re older.  We’re also more loving and we don’t fight for girlfriends…

  • Boy Boy in a loving home now (formerly, Mangala, rescued dog)

    Isn’t it a small world!! My friend, Sze Too, found a wandering Shih Tzu in January and after having failed to locate the owner, I advertised “Mangala” (that’s the name given by Sze Too and his family) for adoption and within a few hours, someone had responded. Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/01/lost-shih-tzu-in-usj16-looking-for-home.html This weekend, at Petfinder’s Carnival, “Mangala’s”…

  • Nandhini’s 2 rescued female dogs, spayed

    Nandhini’s 2 rescued female dogs were spayed some time last week under our sponsorhip. We paid for the spaying charges and shared out the boarding with Nandhini.  The boarding was necessary as these dogs lived in a temple in Klang and the environment was not conducive for post-surgical recuperation.  These dogs have been giving birth…

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/04/bobby-rescued-dog-for-adoption-in-ipoh.html Bobby was rescued by Linda Suhaili, but she could not keep him because she stayed in a kampung. I posted Bobby’s adoption 14th April, and….
