12 Unsuitable Human Foods For Dogs
24th May 2014, by AnimalCare
A few readers shared this: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/foodbeast/12- human-foods-you-didnt_b_5374731.html?utm_hp_ref=fb &src=sp&comm_ref=false
Cheese is on the list. I remember when Bobby was 8 years old, he had 80% liver failure and was really sick. The vet at that time said it could be because we had been giving him processed cheese as treats for years. Bobby was treated with a natural supplement for the liver and he recovered, and lived until the ripe old age of 16.

About Poisoning In Dogs And Cats
24th May 2014, by AnimalCare
While I was at the vet’s, I took the opportunity to ask about poisoning in dogs and cats and this is what I’ve learnt. However, if there are any errors in what I write below, the mistakes are entirely mine.
I asked what might be the chances of an animal surviving the ingestion of poison. The vet says it all depends on the type of poison.
1. Rat poison is common and some can be deadly.
2. Car and fridge coolant is also another deadly poison. It leaks from the fridge or car and it tast...

Be Forever Safe At Rainbow Bridge, Batgirl!
24th May 2014, by AnimalCare
We express our deepest condolences to Yoke Mei for the loss of Batgirl.
Batgirl, may you be happy at Rainbow Bridge now.
We also wish to thank our dear friend for offering to take over all four of Yoke Mei’s community cats as Yoke Mei’s neighbourhood just isn’t safe for cats anymore. Despite Yoke Mei’s repeated appeals to her neighbours (through word of mouth and leaflets), they still lay out rat poison.
Batgirl is the fourth cat poisoned in this neighbourhood (at least ...

The Cartoon That Broke Morrisey’s Heart

This is from PETA:
Here is the link to the cartoon that broke Morrisey’s heart: http://www.peta.org/features/morrissey-ope ning-act/?utm_campaign=052314&utm_source=PETA% 20E-Mail&utm_medium=Alert
I don’t normally want to watch these videos because I know it will break my heart, but I have to watch something before I post it, so I did. At 30 seconds, your eyes will start to get wet. After 1.5 minutes, you will start to cry. But at the end of the story, the little chic...

Bunny At Breakfast
24th May 2014, by AnimalCare
Bunny’s appetite is as usual this morning – good.
I didn’t detect any fever either, which is good.
I gave him Vetri DMG and Transfer Factor.
The good news is that I cannot find anymore soggy mass around the wound. The wound looks like it’s healing too.
Of course, I sprayed Path-Away on it.
Unlike Tiger, Bunny isn’t afraid of the hissing sound of the spray. He lets me spray as much as I like!
I’ll still be taking him to the vet’s because of his FIV+...

Ultraman To Cheer Bunny Up
23rd May 2014, by AnimalCare
Not that he needed cheering up as Bunny seemed so “selamba” (I cannot find an English equivalent for this word!) about his wound, but I thought a toy would be good for him.
So I rubbed some silvervine powder on Indy’s Ultraman pillow and…
As always, Indy would go a dog-down pose before his Ultraman pillow before he begins playing with it.
It’s his ritual.
Then Cow played with it.
Next was Bunny’s turn.
Oooh…nice, nice, nice…
Oopsies!!

Bunny Has A 0.5cm Wound
23rd May 2014, by AnimalCare
This afternoon, at about 4pm, I noticed pink droplets on the floor in the room. It was puzzling and I didn’t think of checking the cats. The droplets were not bloody; just pinkish liquid. There has been vomiting going on due to hairball inside and outside, so I brushed the droplets aside thinking it could be some vomit.
It was only after 6pm that Ming-Yi came back and carried Bunny that she noticed that Bunny was wet on his underside, below his armpit.
I checked and there found a wound of ...

Purrfect Bistro Healthy Weight (aka “weight Control”)
23rd May 2014, by AnimalCare
When Merrick’s Purrfect Bistro was first introduced to the Malaysian market in October 2013, all our cats had a go at it: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/10/24/a-new-petf ood-in-town/
Their response then was lukewarm so I went back to other brands.
Lately, they grew tired of the existing brands, so I thought I’d try Merrick again…
I bought this last month.
Decided to just get the Healthy Weight as most of our cats are…on the heavier side.
Hey, I remember this food.
