  • Of honouring one’s word (again?)

    Yes, again. We just posted this not too long ago: http://animalcare.my/2012/11/21/no-more-publicising-for-fosterers-only-for-adoptions/ And it looks like we have to say it again. It’s very hard being the “middle-person”, (previously) sourcing for fosterers, now adopters and once in a while, rescuers. Many of those who respond are our friends and they respond because they trust me. Unfortunately, many…

  • The aftermath of the Clash

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/11/27/clash-of-the-titans-of-the-feline-kind/ The Chinese has a saying that goes like this: Big problem becomes small problem; Small problem becomes no problem.  Which would be what I hope has happened in my cat clan after yesterday’s triple clash of the titans (details in above link).

  • Clash of the Titans (of the feline kind)

    Yes, sometimes we say it may not be wise for young children to watch too much violence and gore as the impressionable young mind is vulnerable and easily influenced. Hence, we have what is known as censorship and the classification of movies into categories. Young human minds can be easily influenced by what they watch,…
