Portrait Time!
31st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
These are the first few photos taken with my new camera. Why new? You won’t believe this, but after my camera was repaired (and it was working fine), I was told my battery had warped so badly that I cannot use it anymore or it would leak anytime and destroy my whole camera. So I had to go buy a new battery. But because this brand is only popular in Japan and not in Malaysia, the shops did not carry the battery for this model anymore. We must have gone to no less than 8 shops in Suba...

Welcome To Heidi’s Playground!
31st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
We’ve got it all figured out now.
Failing to get a place in the patio and kitchen, Heidi has now declared that the playground is hers.
Yes, the entire playground. All of it.
And when you step into the playground, Heidi runs from “miles away” and greets you warmly and joyfully.
She is an exemplary host. The best I’ve seen.
And if you wish to use Heidi’s basketball court for a good reason (like exercise), she not only allows you to (rent free) but she even accompanie...

Oh No! WHO Bit This Hole?
31st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
I was about to go to work yesterday morning when I saw Daffodil (yes, Daffodil!) mooching around the two bags of Equilibrio in the kitchen. We are staying in an old house, so the storerooms were built really small at that time. I have no place to store the catfood so it would have to be in the kitchen.
It is rare for Daffodil to be so brave and so near any human, so I went to have a look. She didn’t even budge as I approached.
Then I saw it…some had bitten a hole in one of the bags a...

Another Change Of Taste
30th Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
My brood, inside and outside, LOVE Monge. There’s no two ways about it. They love Monge and that’s that.
It’s just me who wants to give them a variety of foods.
So a friend asked me to try Avoderm.
Avoderm contains carrageenan, by the way. So does Natural Balance. But Monge has no carrageenan. It uses broth to bind the meat.
I tried the Ocean Fish yesterday but they didn’t like it, so today, it’s the Chicken.
Verdict: They liked it; it was “okay”, they ...

Lester Hiew’s Adoptions

We thought we’d share this as an encouragement for animal rescuers and caregivers to put their rescued animals up for adoption so that they won’t end up having so many to take care of.

Meetings Of Great Minds
30th Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
The senior patio members.
Seniority is by age.
For once there was no clash of the titans!
Instead, it was a peaceful gathering of alpha minds!
They seldom ever sit so near each other. I figured it must be either (a) the rain, or (b) watching the close-knit relationship of the patio family through the grille and learning that is is okay to sit closer to each other without having to defend one’s 1 metre-radius territory and launch an attack!

Our Reader Extends Help To Pak Din!

As reported earlier, due to a sudden increase of applicants for our Food Fund, we are in the midst of reviewing all applications and this includes obtaining updated information from our previous recipients.
We look at the applicant’s age, ability to work, monthly income and more importantly, if the animals under his/her care are neutered and medically cared for when sick. We also look at the number of animals rehomed but in this respect, we understand that it may be very difficult to rehom...

Liking “healthy Foods” Is A Choice
29th Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
We know we are always going on and on about encouraging people to go meatless (at least) once a week. And some people tell us that they just do not like to eat vegetables.
Well, take a look at this: http://zenhabits.net/taste/
According to the article, liking healthy foods (or whatever foods, or whatever in life, for that matter) is a choice.
Hmm…if that is the case, will looking at video clips or photos of the suffering in slaughterhouses make a difference to those who cannot get started...
