  • Half-day SS15 Market CNRM in Subang Jaya (11 cats!)

    I’ve been talking to my colleague, Nazlina, about what AnimalCare does for some months now.  A few weeks ago, she told me she was planning a project for her General Studies students, so I suggested that she may wish to consider doing a CNRM project for the market cats and the cats on that road from…

  • Anuradha Koirala, CNN Hero 2010

    This is not about animals, rather, it is about doing something for the the needy and underpriviledged.  It is so inspirational, I simply have to share it with the hope that it would inspire all of us to think of the less unfortunate, be it human or animal, and to do something beneficial for them, before…

  • Now, where is the Sunny Kitten’s toilet???

    As you’ve read, the Sunny Kittens had not poo-ed for a few days ever since they started on kibbles.  The vet said it was okay as none of them were constipated.  Rex and Fox had no faeces while Honeybear only had a wee bit. But in the afternoon, I had smelled something in the room. …

  • The USJ family day event

    Yesterday was an extremely humid day.  I was delayed at the vet’s, so Mary was already there with all the tshirts by the time I arrived.  Thank goodness we had loaded all the tshirts in her car the night before.  CP and husband, Lim and son, Jen Kynn were on hand to help us set up.  The…

  • The Sunny Kittens go for a check-up

    Honeybear had not pooped for five days now, and I was getting really worried.  While I know constipation is not life-threatening and sometimes, there may not be much poo when kittens are solely on milk, Honeybear had already been eating soaked kibbles for 3 days now. So, off the three went to the vet’s for a…

  • Bushytail gets healing energy

    By the time I reached the clinic yesterday, CP had just completed more than one hour to hands-on energy healing for Bushytail.  She said Bushytail is really strong.  The vet assistant said Bushytail sat up in the morning and responded to them.  She is still being forcefed, but has already improved a lot compared to the…

  • Urgently required – fosterer for Bushytail’s kittens

    Sudhamma just texted me about an hour ago that she needs a fosterer urgently for Bushytail’s kittens as she would be going back to school (to teach) on Monday.  The weakest one and the one with diarrhoea have passed away, so only three are left now.  They are estimated to be about 7 days old now. …

  • Ice Cream and Panda, treated for skin problem

    Yesterday, Joanne Lim brought Ice Cream and Panda for treatment.  Joanne writes: Yesterday I had abt a 50 mins session with the vet. He also observed them during our discussion n exploring what should n could be done for them. Looking at the fact that Ice Cream and Panda (ICP) are strays that live in…

  • Our new quality control supervisors!

    Right after the radio interview, I rushed over to Sukhi Hotu’s to get the new tshirts.  Ahh, just on time for today’s event in USJ (come join us, ok?).  The boxes of tshirts were piled all the way to the roof of my little Kelisa.  I stopped at the clinic to see Bushytail before going…

  • And while I was away at the radio station…..

    What was happening at home….?  The Sunny Kittens were listening to and recording my interview!!  My husband said their ears perked up and they went towards the radio when they heard my voice…or were they just curious over the radio as a new toy?  I’m listening…and vetting what you say….ok, correct, correct….and are you going to…

  • Playhouse kitties

    The Sunny Kittens have been enjoying the playhouse….  Fox and Rex inside.  Honeybear is sort of the last one to learn new things…well, he’s the youngest.  Rex loves it!  I’m coming out!!  Er…use the door, Rex?  No, the window’s more fun!   As I’ve said, these are indeed the MOST obedient kittens I’ve ever fostered.  They…

  • Miaw and Super Zhou2’s “holiday” at Julie Pek’s

    As you know, Miaw and Zhou2 are currently on “holiday” at Julie Pek’s because their adopter, Mimi, has gone on her own holiday. Here are some photos of the feline holiday: They play in the garden and go back into their cage when done. Isn’t that great?

  • Updates on Bushytail

    Latest news….Bushytail has improved!  At least that’s what I’ve got from the vet’s assistant.  The vet is just too busy on a Saturday to take calls, so I won’t disturb him unnecessarily. Meanwhile, CP and her husband, Lim, dropped by this morning as CP has been collecting tshirt orders for us (thank you so much!),…

  • The tide turns….(Newton’s Third Law at work)

    Remember how Pole did not dare come back because (we found out later) Indy had been “ambushing” her?  So, we had to go to the neighbour’s to carry Pole back for about five days before she regained her confidence to come home for meals, and in the meantime, Indy also got told off for his…

  • Heartfelt thanks to our vets (Bushytail’s surgery)

    I learnt from the vet’s assistant yesterday that the pyometra in Bushytail was only detected late Thursday evening when pus flowed out from Bushytail’s vulva.  In fact, it sort of “flooded” the tray of the cage.  That indicated that it was really bad.  Very bad. But the vets had just forcefed Bushytail that afternoon because…
