  • Ichimi the abandoned kitten and Ponzu the Golden Retriever

    A heart-warming tale shared by Mrs Wong: http://www.reshareworthy.com/rejected-kitten-loves-golden-retriever/ Ichimi the kitten was rejected by her own mother. Lost and alone, Ichimi had a slim chance of survival on her own. Luckily, the orphaned kitten was rescued into a loving family. Ichimi’s new family has fostered many homeless kittens, so Ichimi’s arrival at their home was accepted by…

  • Books for the younger generation!

    Ms Liew requested 180 copies each of Indy Jones, Rainbow Bridge, Here for a Reason and Make Time while the Sun Shines for a school project and the books were distributed to the students of her school recently. Here are some photos from Ms Liew: I wish to thank all friends and well-wishers for making…

  • The 23 canvas bags for the children

    My friend, Yuen Foon, ordered 23 canvas bags from us for the children in her Sunday School and she distributed them yesterday. Here are some photos: Yuen Foon told them there was a surprise waiting for them at the basement where her car was parked. One by one… I got the aeroplane! Doraemon! You’ve got…

  • To all applicants: We ask for your honesty, please

    This is directed to all applicants: We ask for your honesty, please. Surely that isn’t so difficult? Isn’t it easier to tell the truth rather than make up lies? It’ll come a time when the liar doesn’t remember what she has told us, and that’s when the truth is revealed and we have to blacklist…

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2013/12/09/found-2-lost-dogs-in-bk5-bandar-kinrara-puchong-are-these-your-dogs/ It was on 9th December 2013 that Connie found Doodle & Noodle wandering along the road. They were two well-kept, neutered and healthy male dogs. Attempts to locate their owner were unsuccessful. Connie finally put them up for adoption and there were more than 20 queries. And today, Doodle and Noodle go to their…

  • The Green Dandelions belongs to Benji the Dog

    Looks like Yoke Mei’s dog, Benji, has taken possession of the Green Dandelions (our Blanket No.21)! Thank you very much, Yoke Mei and Benji! We hope the Green Dandelions will always keep you warm, cheerful and happy!

  • Perky says “Gong Xi Fa Cai!”

    Perky was our Klang Pound rescue. I named her Perky because I saw her the cheerful and determined spirit in her and indeed, she bounced back from several mishaps; one of which was when her stitches tore after being spayed and I was alone with her on the farm, miles from nowhere. I still remember…

  • The new patio alpha?

    As Mr Miyagi says, “Fighting not good. But if must fight, WIN.” Timmy and Vincent are the patio alphas. Vincent keeps all newcomers at bay (he only failed with Mr Zurik and Heidi) while Timmy chases anyone who intrudes into his vegetable garden. Timmy is also a bully of sorts. But luckily, nobody bites or…

  • Mr Zurik’s eye wound

    It was only yesterday morning that I detected Mr Zurik’s eye wound. He had been squinting for a few days and I’d washed his eye with salt water, but yesterday, a wound appeared. The wound was quite deep and a bit of pus oozed from it when I pressed on it. Yes, the Russian allowed me…

  • Willy must have gone “on leave” again

    Yesterday morning, Willy did not turn up for breakfast. I sort of “knew” that he won’t be coming. Somehow, you just “know”. Willy has this habit of disappearing during festive seasons. He disappeared for 10 days during Hari Raya, but reappeared after that long break. I was worried sick that time until I realised perhaps…

  • A quilt cover and a blankie for a birthday boy

    Not too long ago, a friend asked if my mum could help make a quilt cover for her and in return, she would give a generous donation to AnimalCare. She drew the design for us too. The quilt cover was meant for Chinese New Year. Here it is: Thank you very much for your generous…

  • The prehistoric paw prints of dog cancers

    Debbie Lindsey shared this: http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2014/01/23/265236618/contagious-cancer-in-dogs-leaves-prehistoric-paw-prints?utm_content=socialflow&utm_campaign=nprfacebook&utm_source=npr&utm_medium=facebook Murchison and her colleagues found that the infectious cancer is a living fossil. The modern tumors contain the DNA of an ancient pooch that hung out with prehistoric people thousands of years ago. According to the comments that follow (verification is needed), the two transmissible cancers in dogs are the TVT…

  • Click, click, click!

    I was motivated by the two articles on photographing animals, so I took some pictures of my ever-ready model, Ginger, yesterday. It’s not the angle, Ginger really has significantly big paws. It’s really cute, and we call them his “puppy paws”. Peek-a-boo! Take the photos at eye level, right? Oh, I took many more, but…
