Cinderella was one of the many dogs we managed to rescue from the Klang Dog Pound in December.
Cindy at the pound on 15th Dec.
Rescuing Cindy on 16th Dec.
Cindy being examined by the vet after she was rescued.
The vet believed her wounds have been caused by acid scald. Surprisingly also, she was tested negative for distemper, parvo, corona and heartworm.
Cindy, last week. Her wounds are healing very well.
I just received an update two days ago, from MDDB, regarding Cindy’s progress. She is healing very well and they wanted to get her spayed a few days ago. However, upon opening her up, they found that she had already been spayed.
Putting all the facts together – she was tested negative for the deadly diseases and the fact that she had already been spayed could mean that she was someone’s pet. She may be lost or have been abandoned.
Please help us forward this link as widely as possible, just in case Cindy’s owner is looking for her. Her name is not Cindy, though. I gave her that name.
MDDB will be fostering Cindy as soon as she recovers from the stitches.
It could also mean that Cindy may have been captured and spayed by another animal welfare group before this.
We see now that the left-ear tip (as an indicator of a neutered community animal) can be a life-saver. The animal would not be subjected to being opened up twice.
In animal-friendly countries, a left-ear-tipped animal is not allowed to be captured by the authorities. It is permitted to live out its natural life on the street. People also do not complain so much about the strays. They live and let live.
