A Cat-Lover Turned Dog-Lover’s Story 10th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Here is another heartwarming sharing from one of our readers:
It takes a lot of courage to protect innocent animals. You remember (name withheld)? She’s the ones with many rescued cats. Ever since I’ve known her she’s really afraid of dogs (turned white and pale) even the smallest dog came near her at the vet. But she had seen me with dogs i.e. rottweilers, pit-bulls etc.
She moved to a new place and she started feeding a stray dog – we discussed re the issue on th...

TNRM Of Street Cats In Singapore 10th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Singapore is one of our closest neighbours and they too faced a problem with the growing population of street cats in 2011.
Read how a family did their part in helping the street cats in their area:

Some excerpts:
My human parents run a small cat rescue group called Love Kuching Project and they do Trap-Neuter-Return or TNR, of stray, that is, feral, cats in the south east region of Singapore. In March and April this year they were conducting...

Daffodil And Mr G Make Closer Contact 9th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Daffodil has been coming to the grille more often…
And she sits right outside the grille.
We think she has decided to be the Patio Family representative to make friends (and peace) with Bunny’s People.
Will Bunny’s People reciprocate?
Mr G came to say “hello” from above this evening.
Indy is always on the lookout for such “visits”.
Hey, Mr G!
I hope eventually Bunny’s People will get used to seeing the outside cats on the ledge.

What Is Happening In Other Countries 9th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
We are generally told that females can be neutered at around 4.5 months of age while it is advisable to wait for males to be at least 8 months before getting them castrated (to decrease the chances of having urinary problems later on due to early castration). However, vets differ on this.
This is a sharing by a reader of what is happening in Darebin, a suburb in Melbourne.
DAREBIN pet owners who follow their vet’s advice not to desex puppies and kittens until they’re five or six mont...

The Kittens In The Wastepaper Basket (a Sharing By A Reader) 9th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Here is a story from one of our readers:
I read with interest on your comment on your blog if only we can vote on the animals behalf. Personally I would think animals will not put their fate and vote for a politician.
This coming election is all about politicians only interest is to keep their jobs and whatever perks and power than comes with it. Animal welfare and rights should all of us and the society’s responsibility no matter who comes into power. The following quotes by theo...

Red Alert, Red Alert!! Intruder On The Ledge! 8th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
Just a few minutes, there was an episode in the pantry.
Indy spotted Starry on the ledge (through the very clear polycarbonate) and as quick as lightning, Indy dashed to the pantry, scaled up the wall and was up on the ledge in a blink of an eye.
He’s up on the ledge.
Starry is approaching…
After a quick encounter, face-to-face through the polycarbonate at the “border”, Starry turns around and backs off.
I wonder what Indy said to him…
Indy “reverses...

Just How Determined (read: Stubborn) Is Indy Jones? 8th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
This is how determined (or stubborn!) he is…
Indy has been spraying urine on the polycarbonate attached to the front door for some time now.
It is no longer Cow’s “territory; it’s Indy’s now and what’s worse is, I didn’t foresee that Indy would purposely spray so high up until it’s above the polycarbonate piece and so, if I don’t catch it and wipe it off, it seeps through the double sided tape onto the door, and drips all the way down to th...

Playing In The Tube, Anyone? 8th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
With Connie’s scary experience of the 2m long python coming right into her compound and the fact that the council grass-cutters came to our area this morning, we were wary that there might be another “incident”, so my husband decided to wire-net our front gate, at least as a deterrent.
The Patio Family can still use the top of the dustbin compartment as an entrance and exit. All of them do, anyway.
The remaining of the green netting, we fashioned into “tubes” for Bu...

“Dying To Be Me” – An Interview With The Author 8th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
This is amazing and there is so much we can learn from it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_e mbedded&v=y1VG7895XnU#!
The author, Anita Moorjani, had a near-death experience where she was comatose for 30 hours, but she came back to life and her lymphoma miraculously shrank by 70% in the 4 days that followed. Her explicit description of the near-death experience gives us a glimpse into death.
She has been cancer-free for 6 years now.
She also talks about living life to the fullest...

Python Scare At Midnight!! 8th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
No, it’s not my house this time, but Connie’s.
There are no snake photos in this post. You can read with that assurance. At the very end of this post, there is a link to the youtube of how the snake was captured. If you are afraid, do not click on the link.
Points to note:
1. Due to too much construction and clearing of lands, we have probably disturbed their nests and they have nowhere to go, so they come into our homes.
2. Keep your pets safe.
3. Call Jabatan Pertahanan Awam 03-888...
