A Meeting With An Ear-Notched Cat (a Sharing By Koo) 23rd Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
It is indeed heartening to know that ear-notching (and hence, neutering) is being practised by more people in our community these days.
Here is a sharing by Koo:

Hi Dr Chan,
Just want to share that last Saturday, I was at a PJ morning market

Volunteer At Kelly & Jacinta’s Tg Rambutan Shelter 22nd Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/04/10/kelly-jac inta-need-urgent-hands-on-help-at-their-dog-shelte r-in-tanjong-rambutan/
As far as we know, no one from Ipoh responded to Jacinta’s plea for hands-on help, so I contacted my old school mate, Yvonne. Yvonne was also one of the first ones to help Phaik Imm two years ago. Yvonne immediately contacted Kelly and an appointment was made.
Here’s an update from Yvonne:

Feeding Willy-O 22nd Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Breakfast was as usual at the patio this morning.
Then, I saw a smallish ginger cat peeping from the wall. He had come all the way into the porch and was barely 4 metres away from the breakfast spot at the patio.
Poor Ginger…he must be hungry and lonely.
I did see him sitting under a car parked by the roadside near to our house last night when it was drizzling. I think the people in his house have gone away and he is alone again.
So I put a bowl of food for him near the bench. Of cou...

Close Encounters Of The Indy Kind 21st Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Every day, Indy asks to be let out.
He makes this “Maaa” cry-out, especially when I’m out of the room.
Inside, as you know, the Cow Family rules (and bullies).
But Indy is no pushover.
He stands his ground too, and occasionally, even Cow kowtows to him.
Yes, he is not easily bullied as Tiger and Tabs are.
But today, Indy insisted on coming out, so being Sunday, why not?
I let him out.
Ginger and Timmy were in the patio.
I missed a priceless shot of Indy and Ginge...

Rosie Vs Tabs? 20th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Poor Tabs has been the target of Bunny’s bullying for many days now, so whenever possible, we let her out.
She’s very happy when she is out.
But this morning, Rosie had also come into the house.
And Timmy too, but Timmy is a peaceful alien. I mean, cat.
Gone are the days where we think aliens want to conquer our planet. They are too smart for that! They come in peace now…sometimes in the guise of harmless feline furry friends.
So, Timmy doesn’t fight with Tabs. In fac...

A William-Vincent Showdown At Dawn 20th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
There was a showdown at dawn this morning….
It was between William and Vincent (aka Willy-O and Starry).
Who do you think is winning from the looks on their faces?
Vincent, actually. He can be really the I-stand-my-ground type. Passive aggressive?
I had to avert the fight, so very quickly, I rushed to the patio and made a breakfast call.
I broke protocol today, because normally I would feed Bunny & Friends first (to prevent possible jealousy attacks…on poor me). But it’s...

Go Veggie Once A Week! 20th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
How about a veggie Saturday today?
By doing so, each one of us will…
Save a few of the over 10 billion animals slaughtered for food – This is how many land animals are killed each year in the US alone. The majority of these animals have no laws to protect them from abuse and cruelty. They spend their entire lives suffering in inhumane conditions and mistreatment.
And collectively, we will save many, many more.

When To Help Baby Animals And When To Leave Them Alone 19th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
I think this is useful for all of us because once in a while, we would encounter baby animals even in our urban environment:
http://www.care2.com/causes/when-to-h elp-baby-animals-and-when-you-should-leave-them-al one.html
Start by taking a close look at the situation. Are you meeting this infant courtesy of a pet cat or dog? Is it bleeding, breathing heavily, or visibly distressed (crying, shivering, or moving in a way that suggests a broken bone)? Is there a dead adult animal nearby? If any ...

Dear Dr. Chan,
The vet just called me and he said it doesn’t look like TVT. Bonny might have cancer and need to further examine what type of cancer she has. She has a very big mass in her stomach and the lump at her vagina there might be cancer as well.
I have asked the vet to c...

Updates On Cane Cane The Cat (Michelle Lee Soke Hui’s) 19th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Cane Cane (that’s the cat’s name now) was rescued by Michelle Lee in February 2013, with a badly fractured leg. Initially, the vet recommended amputation but upon closer examination, he decided to save the leg. An IM-pin insertion with wires was performed and Cane Cane came through it beautifully (with a few hiccups here and there).
