  • For the umpteenth time, please do NOT use Poslaju

    This post is meant for the applicants who still insist on using Poslaju. If you do not belong to this category, please ignore this post. We have said it umpteen times – PLEASE do not use Poslaju. If you want to claim from us, you have to follow our rules. That’s only fair. PLEASE DO NOT…

  • The postal service and the mysterious disappearing act

    To all applicants, please be informed that during this near-Raya (as well as post-Raya) period, the postal service is exceptionally slow and not so reliable.  Some of the Pos Ekspres mails has taken as long as 5 days to arrive. The strangest incident is one where the applicant had posted her application by Pos Ekspres on…

  • Postbox closed next week and the postal service

    Dear Applicants, As you know, we use the postbox of my friend’s pet store as our mailing address, partly because as much as we appeal to applicants not to use Poslaju (which requires someone present to receive and sign for the mail, hence we have to use a shop’s address where someone is always there),…

  • Beware of dubious “fundraising” attempts

    Dear Friends and Supporters, Please be informed that all our fundraising activities will be expressly announced on this website. If you’d like to support us with a donation or by purchasing any of our merchandise (by donation), kindly do so by contacting me (chankahyein@gmail.com) or visiting our booth at any event which will definitely be…

  • Additional disclaimer

    Dear Friends, It was brought to my attention recently that my name had appeared on a certain Facebook page without my knowledge or consent. I am grateful to a friend who happened to show me the many postings on the said page so I was able to ask the owner of the page to remove my…

  • Non-compliant applications

    This is a gentle reminder to all applicants that we are unable to accept non-compliant applications. Each time anyone writes in to apply for our aid (irrespective of how many times the applicant has applied), the policies and procedures are sent and it is stated very clearly that the receipt has to bear the applicant’s…

  • Here’s another option to help

    Yesterday’s post: https://animalcare.my/2016/05/02/we-need-your-help/ As a follow-up to our appeal for everyone’s support to help us raise more funds for the animals, we received an email from one of the applicants who had earlier submitted a claim (we are waiting for her receipt). After reading our message, this kind applicant says that since our donations are scarce,…

  • We need your help

    Times are bad and donations have been scarce. We have been running on our reserves since April 2015 and it’s already been a year of running on reserves. Keadaan ekonomi semakin merosot dan sumbangan ikhlas kepada dana kami semakin berkurangan. Kami terpaksa bergantung kepada “dana simpanan” semenjak April 2015. Kini sudah satu tahun. 由於經濟不景氣，捐款已好長一段時間處於稀少狀況。自去年四月，我們一直動用着儲備金。 Our…

  • Please use Pos Ekspres

    Dear Applicants, Over the last few weeks, we’ve had cases of your applications undelivered to us through ordinary post. We’ve reiterated many times over that ordinary post is, unfortunately, quite unreliable these days, especially if it’s near to any festive season. Pos Ekspres only costs RM3.00 and at least there is a 99.9% chance it…

  • More technical problems

    This is a follow-up on the earlier post on the technical problems that we encountered a few days ago. Thank you very much to everyone who has alerted me when you could not open or load this blog. Should you encounter such problems again in future, please do the following 1.  Please write to me…

  • A nagging technical problem, FB to the rescue

    In the past, we’ve had occasions whereby our (this) blog could not be accessed, or is not updated with the latest posts. For reasons which I fail to comprehend, I am able to see all the latest posts on my computer, but others are not able to. So, I am in total oblivion until concerned…

  • Thank you for forwarding and sharing

    We wish to thank all our readers for forwarding and sharing (through our FB or Twitter pages) the appeals from others that we often publish, especially those where help is needed. However, we hope you understand that sometimes the person who requests for help has a change of mind and in turn, asks us to remove…

  • 22 cases today and it’s the right time to clarify

    I was about to write about two matters which we’d like to clarify. Coincidentally, we had 22 cases to subsidise today (just done over the last 5 hours), so the timing is just about right for this clarification. Let’s first take a look again at what is stated in our policies: We are a non-profit…
