  • A kitten story

    While I was at the clinic today, Rani showed me three kittens…. These kittens had been rescued recently (pretty much like Rex, Fox and Honeybear), and Rani was feeding them milk. Then, a nursing mother-cat came in and Rani decided to put them with the mother-cat so that they could get mother’s milk. After one…

  • This is the 4th case (pls notch the ears!) (Mrs Lim’s/Yap Siew Hwa)

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/05/mrs-lims-cats-spayed.html Our panel vet had been so, so busy during this holiday period, I have not even got a chance to speak with him until today. He told me this evening that one of Mrs Lim’s cats brought in for spaying a few days ago, had already been previously spayed. Sigh….not again! This would…

  • Ababyl’s kittens treated

    Ref:http://animalcare.my/2011/05/aznas-three-kittens-adopted.html Ababyl (her real name is Puteri Nazirah) emailed me last night asking for medical help for the three kittens she had adopted from Azna and Sumitra.  Apparently, the kittens were having diarrhoea due to a change of food.  I said we could provide a medical subsidy for newly-rescued/adopted animals.  To everyone – please note…

  • The Sunny Kittens get more adventurous

    Here’s some photo updates: There are no trees to climb, so we climb legs. Honeybear is getting more confident by the day. Mini sumo wrestling. This morning, when I was cooking Bobby’s breakfast, Fox and Honeybear came running out to the kitchen.  They were attracted to “that nice smell”. No, no…you can’t eat that.  Not yet.…

  • The article in the Star

    Hi everyone, Thank you so very much for all your emails and text messages sent after you came across the article in Star Two today.  I am very touched.  The interview was done some months back, actually, but the article was postponed till now, and isn’t that a blessing, because it was so timely.  We registered with the…

  • What a “lost-and-found” day!!

    This morning, it was Yinyong the Rabbit who got lost.  You can read all about that in the previous posting.  Until now, we have not been able to locate him.  I hope he’s ok. Late last night, we just realised Pole had not come back for food.  We went up and down the street looking…

  • Yinyong got away…(please help fwd this link)

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/06/rescued-rabbit-adopted.html Early this morning as I was about to start my class, Julia sent a message to say Yinyong had escaped from her house.   Oh dear…. I quickly called up some friends to see if they could help look for Yinyong.  A search-and-rescue was mounted, and together with Julia’s son, Shaun, they went scouring…

  • Aini’s 2 cats spayed

    Aini is a cat rescuer from Subang Jaya.  We’ve helped her with four of her female cats.  Today, she brought 2 more female cats to be spayed under our sponsorship.  These are from the colony of strays that she feeds and looks after. It was supposed to be 3 cats, but one could not be caught. …

  • The plight of stray cats in unfriendly neighbourhoods

    Shamiela is one of the few people who have responded to my invitation to participate in CNRM in Subang Jaya.  While I have been talking with vets and trying my best to get more information, working out the best deal (for both the humans and the animals), etc., I can only hope that the news…

  • A rescued rabbit – adopted!

    Two days ago, my friend, Julia, asked if I’d like to adopt a rescued bunny.  Yes, a rabbit.  Apparently, Julia’s friend had rescued an imported rabbit from his neighbourhood.  He had asked his neighbours, but nobody knew who this rabbit belonged to. So, Julia fostered the rabbit while I helped look for an adopter.  I thought…

  • AnimalCare Society’s official first donors!

    We found a bank that would enable us to do online viewing of a society bank account without charging us a fee, so our official society bank account is with this bank.  So, today, after all the paper work for the past few weeks, we finally got our bank account! We do not have tax exemption…

  • Yesterday was AnimalCare’s 2nd anniversary!

    This shows how busy we’ve been….we forgot!  Yesterday was our 2nd anniversary…..but never mind, any day is a good day.  Celebrations aside, there’s work to be done.  Hello…..third year! We can celebrate the first day of our third year because we’ve got our official society bank account today!  Read on….

  • The dilemma of doing TNRM

    The reason I had never promoted TNRM is because I have not been in favour of trapping and I honestly don’t know how to do it!  Hence, I coined CNRM.  C = Care.  And this is something which I do, too.  Can’t be promoting something which I don’t do, right?  However, I am well aware…
