• Terry, rescued elderly dog, tested and neutered (Jennifer SL Leong’s)

    Terry is a rescued elderly dog, currently under the care of Jennifer SL Leong. Terry’s history: http://animalcare.my/2012/01/18/subsidy-for-terry-rescued-dog-with-gum-problem-jennifer-sl-leongs/ We recently subsidised Terry’s dental treatment. Last week, Terry was scheduled to be neutered, but upon the advice of the vet, a full blood profile should be done since Terry is considered an elderly dog (estimated to be at…

  • More updates on the baby alligator/crocodile

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/01/26/the-poor-baby-alligatorcrocodile/ Thanks to Nandhini’s unrelenting spirit in saving this poor baby, Surin (Nandhini’s boyfriend) sent the photo of this alligator to his friend who in turn sent it to the Director himself, a Dr Siva, who has asked their enforcement team to look into this matter. Apparently, even if the owner has a permit, he…

  • URGENT: Kitten (in need of medical treatment) for adoption (Inez Sue’s)

    Inez Sue is a student who works part-time to support herself. She rescued a kitten who might need medical treatment, but she is already looking after 3 kittens now, so she would appreciate if someone could adopt this latest kitten. From Inez: Just morning we found a kitten meowing very loudly around our unit, and…

  • People…people who need people…

    …are the luckiest people…in the world. Indeed, they are. “People” is one of my all-time favourite songs by one of my all-time favourite singers, Barbra Streisand. Who do you think accompanied me tonight as I glued myself to the TV (one of those rare occasions where I have time for such luxury) to watch Barbra…

  • The poor baby alligator/crocodile

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/01/26/updates-on-the-baby-alligator-nandhinis/ Nandhini says the Wildlife Dept informed her that that restaurant owner has the license to keep the baby crocodile. Now, that is sad. The poor thing belongs in the wild. Updates at 9.00am (27th Jan) – Have just checked. If the Wildlife Dept says “ok”, there is no higher authority to appeal to when…

  • A new cat on the block?

    We’ve been having many human as well as cat visitors ever since we moved in. Well, there are Mr Gorilla, Shadow, a ginger cat (good friends with Mr Gorilla) and the Snow White Sisters (an adult version of the Blueys). Today, we had another visitor….  It looks like a bluepoint and it’s a female. The…

  • Indy and Bobby’s acupuncture

    Today, Dr Susanna came over for Indy and Bobby’s acupuncture. Indy is still anaemic (from the paleness of the mucus membrane), but Dr S said the animal’s clinical condition is a better gauge than anything else, so since Indy appears to be fine, it should not be a cause for grave or immediate concern or…

  • Do you dry-pill your animal?

    That means, do you, like me, force-feed your animal a pill or capsule without giving it liquids? If you do, you may wish to read this: http://catinfo.org/?link=pillingcats It’s from Dr Susanna. I think it makes a lot of sense. Just thinking about how painful it is for us to swallow a pill dry, I already feel…

  • Yes, HOPE did get the AUD5k prize in Sept 2011

    Dear all, Some of you have written to me asking if the Sunsuper Dreams Contest is a scam. As far as I know, it is NOT a scam. HOPE was nominated in September and it won. Please see this: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=255273584518854&set=a.156371867742360.31092.134246123288268&type=1&theater So, please do vote for us!  We have just another five more days to sustain our…

  • Updates on Cucu, rehomed elderly cat

    My cousin, Lilian, asked for help in rehoming her domestic helper’s cat when the latter went back to the Philippines way back in August 2009. Lilian has 4 dogs and her helper looked after this cat, called Cucu. After the helper left, there was no one to look after Cucu anymore and Lilian wanted a…

  • Pole news for the day

    This morning, Pole made no attempt at all to get up on the gutter-ledge. Has she already conceded defeat?? Instead, today’s mission is to “gazelle” over the cat-grille, to explore the rest of the house.  It looks like she only wanted to explore the rest of the house, so she went upstairs and downstairs, on…

  • Appeals and requests from rescuers

    Please be informed that when you write in to me (which means, to AnimalCare), your appeals and requests will be published verbatim. This is stated very clearly in our policies. We hope you will not reveal the names of clinics, vets and individuals who might not like their identities to be made public. The same…

  • A bird story

    Yesterday, a friend called me with an S.O.S.  His friend had just rescued a bird (didn’t say which type) off the street and was looking for a vet to treat it. Unfortunately, the vets he went to could not treat the bird (this is true because most vets do not have the proper medication for…

  • Updates on the baby alligator (Nandhini’s)

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2012/01/24/baby-alligator-found-in-small-aquarium-at-restaurant/ Nandhini has been updating me on the progress of this case. Today, she checked with the Wildlife Department and apparently, the Deputy confirmed that his people have left for the restaurant now. Nandhini will call back in the afternoon for updates. Hopefully, the Wildlife officers will rescue the poor alligator and release it back…

  • Alvin, Simon & Theodore adopted!

    Ref: http://animalcare.my/2011/11/07/alvin-simon-theodore-kittens-for-adoption-nandhinis/ Nandhini just informed me that the three kittens have been adopted! It’s taken more than 2 months, but it’s certainly been worth the time. We wish the three “chipmunks” a great life in their new home.
