The FCoV Does NOT Infect Humans
26th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
The FCoV is the Feline Corona virus.
In the wake of the Novel Wuhan Corona Virus, below is an informative article, shared with the kind permission of Ms Aurora Lambrecht: https://www.facebook.com/aurora.la mbrecht/posts/10158264189920312
Very important to keep in mind: FCoV does NOT infect humans. Commonly coronaviruses are host specific, only infecting closely related species. FCoV is genetically similar to the canine coronavirus and it has been postulated that FCoV II originated from a do...

Pole Eats!
26th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
This morning I got up at 2.30am!
Everyone had breakfast at 5.00am and Pole ate her Recovery. I did offer some Cubgrub but she refused. Guess it’s going to take some effort to convert her back to Cubgrub or Coco&Joe’s. Perhaps the association of these foods with the mouth pain takes a longer time to be “forgotten”.
For now, it’s more important that she is able to eat without pain. She ate 3 helpings! Pole can definitely do with some weight gain.
On the othe...

Orozyme And Greenies For Pole
25th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
Since yesterday, I had already started Pole on Greenies and Orozyme.
Well, of course, everyone else wanted Greenies too.
This afternoon’s experience with Oral Aid must have totally freaked Pole out.
I was lucky enough that this evening, she was still willing to eat Recovery (no bad experience from there). But after that, when I tried to give her her transdermal Methimazole and Tramadol, she RAN!!
And played hide and seek with me. It wasn’t easy hunting her down.
Then, came the Orozy...

Pole Goes To The Vet’s (pawing At Mouth)
25th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
I decided not to wait until Tuesday when the clinics reopen.
So, we took Pole to the 24-hour vet hospital this afternoon.
Despite being the first day of Chinese New Year and a public holiday, the clinic was packed – a grim reminder that sickness does not choose a time to happen. If it happens, it happens.
So we waited for more than 2 hours for our turn.
The vet checked Pole’s teeth and said there was tartar at the back teeth on both sides, but she could not get the tartar out. She al...

An All-New Reunion Portrait (!!) And Pole’s “gingivitis”(?)
25th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
Gong Xi, Gong Xi, everyone!
Since yesterday, I had been trying to get the Cow Clan (with associate member, Indy) to pose for a reunion photo.
You know how anti-social the whole clan is, right? The girls eat on the counter, and usually Pole eats in her condo.
So, the best I could get was this:
Pole was eating in her condo and Cleo refused to come any nearer to the boys.
Also, and this is a bit of a longer news. Pole had been pawing at her mouth for a few days now, but I thought this was due to t...

The Egg-Yolk Eaters And Other Stories
24th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
The regular egg-yolk eaters in Bunny’s Place are Bunny and Pole.
Indy is just being kiasu.
Bunny and Pole are also soup drinkers, which is really good, because Pole, especially, needs extra fluids.
However…
…Cleo also needs extra fluids, but she refuses to drink the meat broth.
It’s not poison, Cleo.
Cow, on the other hand, does not eat egg-yolks at all.
Cow: I’m a regular cat. I eat meat. Cats do not eat half-boiled eggs in the wild.
Cleo: And cats als...

Of Policies, Integrity And The Alignment Of The Stars
22nd Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
I’ve wanted to write this since last week, but simply could not find the time to do it.
It was meant as a ranting (because I have not ranted for more than a year now), but thanks to a lovely email I received today, I will cut down on the ranting and focus on the positive instead!
The ranting is this: I think I have no affinity with applicants born in 1996. Let’s see…they would be 24 years old this year. It’s either they simply do not understand any language or they do no...

Neutering Aid For 1 Cat In Subang Jaya (Lee Lay Kim’s) & Updates
22nd Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
We have provided an aid of RM100 for the neutering of this cat.
Ms Lee has updates on her previous claims below.
I am sending yet another appeal for neutering aid for a stray cat. Bubbles walked into my life one evening when I was rushing through a late dinner at roadside stall in Subang Jaya. He was with another black kitten, much smaller & both were warily looking for scraps. They were active but sadly, very undernourished, just skin & bones. Luckily I had two carriers in ...

Ms Lai has updates on the previous dog and cat below.
A little write up as below
This dog was found near Seri Kembangan and she is very scared of people. It makes it more challenging for her to look for food and to fend for her puppies. After getting her trust, I have sent her to neuter so that she doesn’t need to suffer anymore. Thank you Dr Chan and Animal Care for suppor...

The Trick To Get Ginger To Eat Chicken
21st Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
I found it, I found it, I found it!!
The trick!!!
I know how to get Ginger to eat Cubgrub Chicken now!!
You see, for weeks now, Ginger has been boycotting Cubgrub Chicken. He refuses to eat Coco&Joe’s and is not into Primal either. He only wants Cubgrub Exotics (Duck, Rabbit and Quail).
If I serve Cubgrub Chicken, he will walk out of the kitchen and boycott that meal.
If I serve Cubgrub Exotics with just a tiny hint of Cubgrub Chicken, he will also walk out on me.
But if I serve raw ch...

Our Most Feral Cat
21st Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
….is the one who was never a “stray” before.
The one who was born in Ming-Yi’s wardrobe and has lived with us for 13 years now.
And who might that be?
Now, let’s see…..
Cow, Bunny and Pole were rescued at 1 day old from the roadside (so, former strays, even if for one day). Indy was rescued from the drain at (possibly) 2-3 weeks old (definitely a stray). Tabs was either abandoned or lost because she came with a collar with a bell and she adopted us by asking...

Trying To Save Betsy’s Eye
20th Jan 2020, by AnimalCare
Connie decided to try.
So, yesterday, I accompanied Connie and Betsy to see our vet for a second opinion.
The vet examined Betsy’s eye and explained that there is a rupture and fluids from the anterior chamber has flowed out to form the bulge, which we see in her eye now. If this bulge breaks, there is no chance to save the eye and the lens might also fall out. From an external examination, it is hard to determine if the lens is damaged.
So, now, in order to TRY to save the eye, it’s...
