  • Updates on Lilac

    Lilac can now stand on her own, but seems to be having defecation problems. She was happily eating on her own last night when I went to see her. We will be settling the balance of the bill for Lilac’s first surgery, as per requested by the rescuer.  She has not contacted us ever since…

  • Moo Moo, neutered

    Yesterday, Julie Pek brought a male cat, Moo Moo, to be neutered under our sponsorship.  It’s been some time since I last spoke with Julie.  She told me that she’s been publicising AnimalCare’s work (thank you, Julie!) and recently managed to get some factory workers to catch the cats in the vicinity (eight, to be…

  • Prteepan has got his rabbit now!

    My student, Prteepan, has finally got his pet-rabbit, and his brother has adopted one as well.  I’m currently arranging for the adoption of another three (hopefully!).   These rabbits were rescued from a terrible ordeal.  I’m glad the rescuer had been so kind as to take them out of that place and is now trying to…

  • A sunny day for the Sunny Kittens

    Some photo updates and milestones… Rex and Fox can already drink from the bottle.  Honeybear still needs syringe-feeding, but he has the loudest voice! Fox, the big sister.  With Uncle Bobby…the ever reliable one.  The smallest, but has the loudest voice!  This morning, Rex could even lap milk from a dish, but just a wee bit. …

  • TEN times more….(from Raja Petra’s article)

    A friend just forwarded an article by Raja Petra, who, with his wife, was recently in Bali for a holiday.  Raja Petra described just how impressed he is with the honesty of the Balinese people.  Here’s an excerpt from his article: I asked one Balinese girl who was giving me a two-hour massage how come…

  • An S.O.S. from Taiping

    This afternoon, our vet called me.  He was in the Kamunting area in Taiping and had found a mother-dog and her newborn puppies inside a drain.  Tried as he did, the mother-dog was ferocious.  He asked if I knew of any rescuers in Taiping. I didn’t, but our vet remembered Mdm Kang, the elderly lady…

  • Francis, the cat-feeder

    This morning, at 6.45am, I went to SS18/5A to meet up with Francis, the cat-feeder.  My friend, Bro Chim, had already spoken to Francis earlier and he was interested in doing CNRM for the cats that he feeds.  There was no one at the playground yet.  So, I walked down the road, just to see…

  • More sunny news…

    I had wanted to start the Sunny Kittens on baby kibbles already, but after hearing all the horror stories resulting from the change of diet for very young kittens, I’m delaying it for a while… They are still on Pets Own Milk, but drinking like crazy….and producing nice golden-yellow poo. Urination is clear and nice…

  • Pole comes home!!

    After going repeatedly over to the neighbours to carry Pole back and ward off Indy’s ambush attempts, Pole came home by herself this morning for breakfast! Pole has been so terrified of Indy who has been bullying her, but recently, he started blocking Pole from coming home, and poor Pole had not come home for…

  • Updates on Amber (spayed)

    Amber was spayed yesterday (under our sponsorship) and seemed well today.  For the first time EVER, she was asleep when I entered the room. I didn’t want to wake her up, but too late….she knew, and she got up and wagged her tail happily.  Amber’s about the happiest dog I’ve ever met.   Hi, Amber!! Amber…

  • Updates on Lilac (second surgery done)

    I went to visit Lilac today… Lilac has undergone her second operation to split the muscle between her leg and thigh.  This “adhesion” was causing her to be unable to use her leg (where the IM-pin insertion had been done). Lilac can now stand up already.  The next step would be to walk… The owner/rescuer…
