The Non-Escapees Of Stargate2 (and One Escapee) 1st May 2017, by AnimalCare
It’s been almost a week since Stargate2 (Part 1) was installed.
Part 2 was supposed to come after two days, but until today, it’s still not ready.
Hence, it definitely isn’t cat-proof yet.
On the first day itself after the installation of Stargate2, we sent Indy out for the acid test. It took Indy all of 3 seconds to discover how to get out. Of course we caught him in time before he actually climbed out.
For the first two days, Vincent, Ginger, Daffodil, Heidi, Tiger and Tabs ...

Istanbul, Please Lead The Way (Part 3) 1st May 2017, by AnimalCare
A friend shared this:http://animalbehaviorassociates.com/blog/mana ging-street-dogs-cats-turkey/
Turks are very much against euthanasia of dogs and cats for “population control”. This is in contrast to the U.S. where there has been very little tolerance of free-roaming dogs and where euthanasia of healthy but unwanted dogs has been a common, although controversial, public health policy for at least 50 years. This is changing in the U.S. today as the numbers of free-roaming do...

Istanbul, Please Lead The Way (Part 2) 1st May 2017, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, we posted a video about how kind the citizens of Istanbul are towards stray cats.
Now, a friend shares this bit of great news to add on:
It’s not just stray cats that are well-treated, I read that they also feed stray dogs in a proper and well-thought-out way. They would build three-walled shelters n place food/drinks there, so any dog can just eat n drink there without littering d streets. People will then clean up and re-fill, and it’s all voluntary. Win-win for bo...

Children’s Mini Tote Bags (fundraising And Greening The Earth!) 30th Apr 2017, by AnimalCare
Our kind donor gave me this fantastic idea of sewing tote bags for children!
It all started when the parents of this little girl ordered three hobo bags from us. The moment the bags arrived by post, the little girl grabbed all three bags and said they were hers. But the hobo bags were far too big and long for her!
This gave rise to this fantastic idea of sewing mini tote bags for children.
I decided to use remnant cloth, patchworked, if necessary, since the whole idea is not to waste.
I used re...

10 Hobo Bags (fundraising) 30th Apr 2017, by AnimalCare
We would like to thank Aida and Sally for ordering these 10 hobo bags from us. Thank you very much for your kind donation of RM1000 to our Neutering Fund!
Please note that due to feedback from the majority, we are now reducing our hobo bag dimensions to a height of 10 inches and a total length of 30 inches. The previous length of 34 inches proved to be a bit too long for the average Malaysian female. However, if you are taller than 5ft 3 in and would like the bag to be longer, please let us kno...

The Very Thin Line 30th Apr 2017, by AnimalCare
Here’s sharing a story:
Some time ago, someone in the neighbourhood circulated a council’s hotline for catching stray animals, to the entire neighbourhood whatsapp group.
The text came in as I was having lunch after work.
I immediately replied and pleaded with all neighbours not to call the council. I explained what would happen if animals are caught. Pets or street animals, they would not be spared. I offered AnimalCare’s Neutering Aid and asked them to consider getting...

Fury Over Man’s Best Friend 30th Apr 2017, by AnimalCare
The whole story: http://www.nst.com.my/opinion/columnis ts/2017/04/234740/fury-over-mans-best-friend
The most important part which is 100% true:
A study shows that dogs have the ability to interpret and predict human behaviour due to thousands of years evolving together with humans.
A research predicts that future generations of dogs will become much “smarter”, and that they will be able to perform basic chores like retrieving newspapers, without being told due to their i...
