  • Blackie, dog for adoption (Pauline Leong’s)

    ADOPTED on 2nd Feb 2012!! From Pauline Leong (pauline.leong@gmail.com or 012-3067411): Blackie appeared on the streets, looking very lost and confused. She wandered around for about 2 weeks – in the sun and rain. The vet says that she’s healthy – has good set of teeth and free from disease. Has been dewormed & frontlined.…

  • Bunny goes to the vet’s – Funny!

    So this afternoon, it was Bunny’s turn to go to the vet’s for his vaccination. Rather than me talk, I’ll let Bunny tell his story…first-hand. So there I was, resting comfortably on their clean clothes, minding my own business, when suddenly….Mum patted me on the head, said something (she always thinks I understand, but how…

  • No more Kitty-2

    Today, the vet assistant told me that Kitty-2 did not make it. They all passed away one by one and even the vet was completely baffled and could not figure out what was wrong with them. They just kept having diarrhoea off and on. That’s how dangerous diarrhoea is…and that is why we always recommend…

  • Sugar is doing well (Eling Chan’s)

    I met Eling at the vet’s today. Sugar is doing well and should be able to go home tomorrow evening. However, Eling has to go to work, so she will board Sugar until Monday (at her own cost as we do not cover extended boarding) and take her back then. Eling says she was able…

  • Miu is still missing (Kelly Koo’s)

    From Kelly:    

  • A “Blessing” on wheels (must read!)

    When I was first faced with having to take care of and make the necessary arrangements for Sunshine Courage, I called a few friends for advice and moral support. As you know, we do not “take in” any animal; we can only work with rescuers by providing the medical aid and the animal is then…

  • Sweetie is adopted!! (Linda Suhaili’s)

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/11/24/photo-updates-of-sweetie-from-ipoh-linda-suhailis/ From Linda: Hi Dr Chan, Sweetie has been adopted yesterday. One of the vet’s assistant apparently fell in love with her and asked to keep her when I brought Sweetie in for check up. She seemed perfect for her as she was the one caring for Sweetie at the clinic anyhow. Btw, the bleeding…

  • A female cat spayed (Prema’s)

    Prema contacted me last week to request help to get a female cat spayed. The procedure will be done today, at our panel vet, under our sponsorship. This is the cat. Updates at 6.30pm – the cat has been spayed. I’ve just checked in on her at the vet’s. Waking up from the anaesthesia. Apparently,…

  • Did you know Lantana is a toxic plant?

    I’m in the midst of getting my garden landscaped before moving and a friend recommended a nursery. For the cat-space at the back of the house, I’ve consulted vets, shelter friends and other friends who are more experienced to suggest what I should do. One of the things suggested was to have flowering plants that…

  • Sunshine and her bone

    This morning, at 6.30am, I drove down to pass the Advocate to my friend for Sunshine. It was too early, so I did not want to disturb them.  Just left it in the postbox. My friend sent these photos of Sunshine and her favourite toy, a bone. Yum, yum… Aww….shh….(she’s asleep). Get up…start chewing again!…

  • Blacky is adopted (Jessy Lian’s)

    From Jessy: Good news Dr.Chan, Blacky has been adopted! I went to visit her as usual around 5.30pm. The pet shop owner happily informed me that a kind couple & their son had adopted Blacky and they left just 5 min ago. I wish I was there in time to talk to them & hopefully…

  • I only managed to get Cow….

    Cow has been very obedient lately, and it was no problem at all plonking him into the carrier. In fact, he even walked right in. Bunny was sitting on the pillar at Mac’s place, but the back door was jammed. Sigh… I kept calling him in, and he just looked at me and gave me…

  • Indy and Tiger go for their vaccinations

    After coming back from visiting Sugar and seeing that today the vet’s was not crowded, I thought I’d take Indy for his check-up. If you’ve been following Indy’s news, he is a suspect kidney problem cat because there was protein in his urine and he used to lick a lot of water from the running…

  • Sugar’s amputation went well, but… (Eling Chan’s)

    Today is Sugar’s scheduled surgery and I’ve been calling the vet’s for updates.  The surgery went well, and the vets are finishing the procedure now. The surgery lasted almost 2 hours because there was a bit of excessive bleeding but Sugar’s PCB level was good after the surgery. However, an attempt to spay her revealed…
