There were wounds with pus on his body and near his anus. Ants and flies were around his wounds. He was very weak and didnt want…

  • On the homefront

    I thought I’d be able to spend a quiet day at home and start packing for the big move, but the 5-kitten case got me out of the house. And, while I was at PAWS, I met a really techno-savvy guy who explained why I was having so much problems with my new smartphone (yes,…

  • Blueys’ updates and their very own Facebook page!

    From Andy:Fan, as mentioned in the SMS ,it has been moved to a safer place. Today, we found them even more active than yesterday and while we are cleaning up their rooms, they started to roam in other areas of the office ( of course under supervision).

  • Found! – Fosterer for 5 abandoned kittens

    I called Cheang immediately after receiving that phonecall from our vet and Cheang agreed to foster the 5 kittens.Cheang doesn’t drive out of her “safety zone” (something I totally empathise with since I too have the worst of the worst possible sense of direction), so she asked me to send them over to PAWS and…

    Our panel vet just called with an S.O.S. Someone had dumped a litter of five kittens in front of his clinic.  The kittens are now still healthy, estimated to be about 2 1/2 weeks old.  Their eyes are open and they are just able to get up and crawl around. The fostering is needed for about…

  • The Blueys are fine and dandy (morning updates)

    Last night, I was only able to see the photographs that Andy sent at about 10.30pm. This is no thanks to my streamyx…sigh.

  • Updates on Mickey the Miracle

    A miracle…that would be one word to describe Mickey’s case. But that miracle, I believe, was caused by a few contributing factors – perseverance, never-give-up attitude, lots of tender loving care, hardwork, spiritual help and last but not least, a belief in some higher force in the universe that decides. However, we cannot simply rely…

  • Instant adoption from the marketplace

    Peggy Quah shared this story: Just now my hubby told me there were 2 puppies to be given away at our market opposite my house so I went to take a peep and took some photos and you know what end up we got people around and got the puppies adopted. Real happy feeling to…

  • Why the road is so unsafe for kittens

    Free-roaming or confined?  This is a question which is debatable and I guess there would be no right or wrong. My vet recommends that all pets (including cats) be confined for their safety. He says even a large cage with enough toys for mental and physical stimulation is good enough, if one cannot wire-net one’s…
