As I was waiting with Tiger for our turn at the vet’s, I saw two men walk into the clinic.  They appeared to be very concerned about a dog they had apparently brought in, and hurriedly went to the back of the clinic which was the boarding area for dogs.  I saw the vet explaining…

My 5th Form English teacher and wonderful friend, Mrs Wong Yew Choong, sent me this link a moment ago: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/do-animals-have-emotions.html Please read it, it’s interesting.  Here’s one paragraph: Many researchers also recognize that we have to be anthropomorphic (attribute human traits to animals) when we discuss animal emotions, but that if we do it carefully,…

This morning, Yi Lin called saying JT (one of the football pups) seemed very ill late last night.  He was whimpering and could not wag his tail or even lift up his head.  Yi Lin separated him for the other puppies and put Mum-Chelsea with him.  So I said we would send JT to the…

I’ve heard of these things, but have not seen one “live” before.  This is Pipi.  His owner, a Mr Lim, brought him to see the vet for a check-up.  Pipi was paralysed “waist-down” due to a fight where a bigger dog bit into one of his nerves (I dont know if I got that technically…

Today, I went over to the vet’s to get the deworming medicines for Chelsea and her puppies.  Then, I brought them over to Yi Lin’s house. Chelsea is improving, ie. she looks more cheerful and still has that ravenous appetite.  That’s really good, but we will still monitor her closely for the next few days.…

While Cleo was lost this evening, the one keeping vigil for Cleo was none other than good old Indy Jones. When I came home this evening twice, without Cleo, Indy was sitting on the pillar of my house, watching out for Cleo.  I knew why he was there.  I just knew.  He looked at me…

Or, to be more accurate, a cockroach-loving person… I give weekly talks on living a more spiritual life, and in one of…
