  • What spooked Gerald this morning?

    I got up at 4.30am this morning and when I say “got up”, I mean I opened my eyes from sleep. Usually, Gerald will know instantly and he would always jump up onto the window sill and start his meowing-orchestra. Then I would have to quickly literally get up and feed Misty and him so…

  • Furby is neutered!

    Remember Furby? He was the little kitten who came to our porch one night. Tiny little fellow he was at that time. I got him rehomed to my very trustworthy friend. Furby is now neutered! The vet says Furby is in good health, just make sure he doesn’t get too fat!!

  • The serial killers of street animals

    It is very, very upsetting to know that the serial killers that we mentioned some time ago are still doing their wicked, senseless acts. These are those “rescuers” who pick up young animals from the street only to have them killed at the vet’s. These people are either suffering from severe compassion fatigue or they…

  • Man fined RM20,000 for shooting cat with air rifle

    The news: https://www.freemalaysiatoday.com/category/nation/2023/06/22/former-military-man-fined-rm20000-for-shooting-cat-with-air-rifle/ Hopefully, one day, such malicious, intentional and cold-blooded killing of an animal will be equated to the killing of a human being with the same intent. This is certainly not self-defense. Why was only the minimum fine imposed? We have a long, long way to go in animal rights, but at least we…

  • Creating your own microcosm of kindness

    This week, so far, we’ve heard news of dog catching somewhere nearby, and today, cat poisoning also somewhere nearby. Animal-haters complaining to the councils, councils acting upon the complaints, animal-haters getting rid of street animals in their cruel and wicked ways, etc. – This is nothing new. It has been ongoing for as long as…

  • Food aid to Imm’s Shelter

    For this month, Imm’s Shelter has requested food aid as their expenses have been very high due to a number of dogs who have fallen ill and required medical treatment. Donors: IMO Wolf from Chow Yi Lin, an anonymous donor, donors from Boost, donors from Touch ‘n Go, Ahmad Amir Kamil, Avant Pet Sdn Bhd,…

  • David Latimer’s amazing sealed terrarium!!

    This just goes to show that the earth doesn’t need us humans. It will survive very well without us. In fact, it will THRIVE without us!! Just leave the earth to the plants and animals and it will flourish! Need I say more? The amazing experiment which produced the world’s oldest flourishing, thriving terrarium: https://natureofhome.com/worlds-oldest-terrarium-david-latimer/ In…

  • Ginger visits the Blondies

    Ginger, Smurfy and Robin came over the Bunny’s Place to play and eat grass this morning. Can you name everyone in these photos?

  • Chee Onn’s first reflections

    As I have written a few weeks back, Mooi Chee Onn was the designer of our first tshirts and many tshirts after that too. He also helped us with a lot of design work, including the background paw prints that you see on this blog, our many buntings, banners and posters, through the years when…

  • How did Gerald spend Father’s Day?

    The photos will answer the question. Creamy came to visit this evening and had a meal with Gerald! Misty came back later and Gerald ate again with her! That’s a pretty good way to celebrate Father’s Day, isn’t it?

  • Happy Fathers’ Day to our pet-fathers 2023!

  • Happy Fathers’ Day 2023!

  • Gerald and Misty

    Creamy does come, though not daily. And when he comes he doesn’t seem to be hungry too. He just stays around to socialise and occasionally eats with Gerald and Misty. So I know Creamy has a home in the back street or perhaps he has another food source. He looks very well so that’s good.…

  • Updates from Survivor Shelter

    I finally got to communicate with Ms Ong and learnt a bit more about ET’s very unusual case and sad demise. The vet said it was most likely due to the dewormer. ET weighed 250g. Maybe she had a reaction to the dewormer. At the same time, Ms Ong is unsure if it could be…

  • Updates on ET (from Survivor Shelter)

    Ms Ong took ET to the vet today and the vet said ET only has some eye discharge and skin problems. The diarrhoea is most likely due to having eaten some unhygienic food on the street. ET was dewormed, deflead and given an ID diet to address the diarrhoea which the vet didn’t think was…
