News On Bonny 26th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/04/19/updates-o n-bonny-the-puchong-dog-kwan-pei-kuans/
There has been no updates from Pei Kuan on Bonny so since we have pledged a maximum of RM1000 (RM500 from our Medical Fund and RM500 from Angel Inc.), I contacted the vet to find out what is going on and if there has been any progress on the evaluation of Bonny’s condition.
According to the vet, the growth at the vagina and the swelling beside the left eye is TVT (confirmed) and TVT is entirely treat...

Indy And His Primal Instinct 26th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
I just had a fright of my life.
I’ve been told that dogs are known to kill out of jealousy. Apparently, cats do it too.
Indy sneaked out of the grille just now, when I was exiting the room. Vincent Starry was in the dining room and Indy attacked poor Vincent straight on, engaging him in a very fierce battle of the jaws. It was the “locked bodies” type of fight which I’m told can only be broken up by spraying water.
There was no water hose nearby as this was in the dining ...

A sharing by Bernice: http://www.animalsaustralia.org/features /animal-testing-list.php
Please click on the link above to check if the brands that you use still use animal testing.
If it still does, you may wish to consider switching to a cruelty-free brand.

What Is A “Bunny Rampage”? 26th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Somehow the two words don’t go together, does it? Bunny and Rampage? It should not even appear in the same sentence, actually.
But it does….when you have a 6.85kg cat named Bunny who thinks he is master of all he surveys and delights in going on a bullying rampage at his whim and fancy.
This is what happened:
Yesterday, while I was at work, my husband took the following two photos below. Apparently, Bunny was on a rampage, and the situation had escalated to such an out-of-control sta...

Our Latest Food Fund Recipient: Cat-Caregiver, Norshahadah Bt Rusli, From Skudai, Johor 25th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Norshahadah bt Rusli is an individual caregiver of the community cats who live in the vicinity of her food stall. She wrote to us to apply for neutering subsidy for the cats since her previous fund provider has temporarily frozen their funds. We have provided our neutering subsidy for 3 of her cats so far.
Norshah also wrote to ask if we know of any supplier in Johor who could give a cheaper offer for catfood as she is feeding about 18 cats in all and she does not earn much working at the food s...

A Crisis Looming For Rescued Dogs In Thailand (from Soi Dog) 25th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Updates from Soi Dog:
A few weeks ago I wrote to you about the emergency situation at the government shelters housing dogs rescued from the illegal dog meat trade. With over 1,000 dogs rescued from smugglers the situation with overcrowding at government shelters and the need to build more shelter for the dogs has reached crisis proportions.
I would like to express my thanks to the many people who have responded to the current crisis. Though we still have a long way to go in raising much neede...

Changing People’s Mindset, Gently But Surely 24th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Lilian Tan is applying for a subsidy for the neutering of Biscotti, a puppy she rescued and is now adopting. But behind this rescue story is another story – one that illustrates that it is possible to change the mindset of people, from being callous about animal welfare to being caring.
Here is the story:

The Plight Of Being An “Undercat” 24th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
We have the “Thundercats”, and we have the “Undercats”.
The “Undercats” is a minority organisation and there are currently only two members: Willy-O and Tabs. One outside and one inside. Of course between the two, Willy-O is a bigger victim than Tabs. The former is bullied by Vincent Valentino Starr, Mr G and possibly even Ginger while the latter is bullied by the Cow Family.
That being the case, feeding Willy-O is fast becoming a skill. A juggling skill, if y...

Can We Be The Voice Of The Majority….one Day? 24th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
With the “mother of all elections” just around the corner, coffee shop talk inevitably leads to elections talk. In one such encounter, I wondered aloud if our constituency can ever (as we’ve proposed 3 years ago) be the first township in the country to implement CNRM on a grand scale (sanctioned and instituted by the local councils). We got talking and this is what I learnt: Simply put, we are a very small minority. And this does not give us any bargaining power.
We need to be ...

Why We Are Different 24th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
I was watching a Barbra Streisand youtube yesterday and she quoted Archbishop Desmond Tutu just before her rendition of the song “Somewhere”.
We are different.
Some use this to alienate, dominate and bully.
Some use it to understand and extend a helping hand.
When lost in the jungle, it might be the sniffer dogs who will find and rescue us. When lost at sea and surrounded by sharks, it might be the dolphins who will save our lives.
But in our concrete jungle, it’s our turn to ...
