• A heartwarming fish story

    I seldom write about fish because we don’t deal with the fish in the oceans nor those in people’s aquariums, but today, my friend, Kon, shared a very touching fish story with me. Kon’s mechanic keeps fish in an aquarium. At the same time, this mechanic looks after his aged mother who had had a…

  • Sad reflections on the untimely demise of the loyal dog in Penang

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/02/05/sad-end-to-two-loyal-dogs-in-penang/ So previously, 2 dogs were euthanised in Penang because they attacked a tourist in the course of doing their duty in protecting their territory. Never mind what they were doing, never mind intention, they killed a man, so they were sentenced to death for it. They were dogs. They had no chance to speak…

  • The Shah Alam cat-family is safe and sound now – a lovely story

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/02/03/mother-cat-and-3-more-kittens-left-in-shah-alam-koos/ On Friday, I personally asked Maslinda if she would have the space to take in this mother-cat and her (remaining) 3 kittens. I said we would provide for their medical needs and food (to be fair to Mas, of course). And, Maslinda (bless her kind heart), said YES! But could someone please bring the…

  • Subsidy for pelvic-fractured cat (Doreen Yam’s)

    Sometime last year, our vet told me about this one case of a rescued cat from a factory, possibly needing a diaphragmatic hernia surgery. Our vet asked if we had the funds to help out. I said I would need to speak with the rescuer and yes, we can contribute a subsidy. I visited the…

  • After 16 years….are you STILL a fan of Calvin & Hobbes?

    Allow me this indulgence, my friends, on a Sunday morning. I am a great fan of Calvin & Hobbes. I love Calvin, I love Susie and I love Hobbes!!  The comic strip by Bill Watterson is so philosophical and full of truths, but told in a simple and humorous way. I love that style! And,…

  • Kitten doing well! Updates from Shalyn Loh

She’s definitely getting more and more energetic, for sure! For a cat that could only lie on its side the first day I found her, she’s at least trying to…

  • Sad end to one loyal dog in Penang

    A stand corrected in this earlier post. Only one dog was euthanised. The other is awaiting a similar fate unless someone adopts it. The write-up below has been corrected from its previous one. Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/01/30/ever-loyal-till-the-end/ The original article: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2012/1/30/nation/10563799&sec=nation News: http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2012/2/5/nation/10681643&sec=nation It is heart-breaking news for me that such a loyal friend has been killed (No, I…

  • Our new product (a Misai Kucing drink)

    Here’s our new product for fund-raising!   This product is prepared by my friend, Joseph Foo. He plants the Misai Kucing (“Cats’ Whiskers”) himself so it’s very natural. The drink contains only three ingredients: Misai Kucing, Stevia leaves and lemon. Almost everyone who comes to my house and drinks it, has gone home bringing a…

  • That ever, ever delightful little girl writes again!

    I don’t know if you remember a series of emails I posted last year, from this ever-so-delightful little (then) 12 year-old Andrea, who says I’m her favourite author and she has read every single one of my books. Well, what do you know? Andrea writes again, and isn’t it just so coincidental that little Andrea…

  • A first-time rescuer in the making – Shalyn Loh

    A young lady, Shalyn, called me last night. Shalyn knows me as she belongs to the Buddhist youth group whose camps I’ve conducted before. Shalyn picked up a little kitten last night (her very first time) and she did not quite know what to do. The kitten was just lying down and could not walk.…

  • A turtle story

    This morning, a lady by the name of Elisabeth called me. Apparently, a turtle (not a tortoise, but a turtle) had crawled into her apartment. She asked her neighbours and no one claimed ownership of the little reptile though she said someone nearby did keep tortoises. When she called me, she had put the turtle…
