Baggy’s coming home to me today
Baloo’s sudden demise has been a shock to me, and I think, also to many of our readers who have been following the Blueys’ story since Day One. Last night, Andy wrote to say that perhaps the office environment isn’t so suitable for Baggy, so he wanted to know my opinion on rehoming Baggy. I…

Subsidy for spaying of female dog in Batu Pahat (Lee Wei Tah’s)
From: LEE WEI TAH weitah82@yahoo.com.tw Message: Dear Dr Chan , 您好，我是来自Batu Pahat的。请允许我用中文书写与您沟通。 我也是关心流浪动物的，我这两年都在自费为拯救回来的流浪狗结扎并找主人。我与另两位女士合作成立了一个小组，不是注册组织只是一个推广运动。我们称之为“A.C.T.S BP” : http://www.facebook.com/ACTS.BP 中文译名已经修改成“为流浪宝贝找主人运动” 因为听闻Dr.Chan能够申请津贴为流浪动出一份力。我们希望您能给与允许我们的申请。我们平均一个人只能为2只狗或猫进行结扎和一切医疗（都是自费），因此能力实为有限。如果Dr.Chan能够给与协助津贴，我们将会能够协助更多的流浪动物进行结扎，并鼓励公众为家里的宠物（我们将针对Mixed Breed）。以减少生育过剩被抛弃的可能性。 再次恳切Dr.chan的回复。若您批准，我们将感激不尽。有何疑问我将尽我所知回复您，感谢。 Lee Wei Tah Translated by Huey: He’s from batu pahat, has been spaying/neutering stray animals for 2 yrs. he started a team called A.C.T.S BP with another 2 ladies for this purpose, more like a movement, not a registered…

Baloo is in Rainbow Bridge (Andy Lew’s)
Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/04/28/baloo-bluey-under-critical-care-andy-lews/ It is with deep sadness that I inform all our readers and well-wishers that Baloo passed on at 10pm last night. I just received the news from Andy Lew and I think I’m also in shock. It is, however, not totally unexpected since she was in a critical condition last night. I was already…

Baloo Bluey under critical care (Andy Lew’s)
While I was at the Bersih Rally, and when we still had reception, I texted Andy twice to ask about Baloo. However, Andy had left his hp behind, so I only managed to call him later, while on the train heading home. Baloo was in a rather critical state. The X-Rays show fluid in the…

Those who look after Bobby
As you all know, Bobby has looked after every single kitten I brought back, and as I was doing a check-list the other day, 48 animals have actually been fostered in our home (mostly kittens) in these 3 years. So, now that Bobby is old and grey, who looks after him? Cow, being the eldest…
