Is It Liberace? Elton John? Elvis?? No, It’s Indy!! 19th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare
The other day, when Indy started wearing his smiley-tshirt, a reader remarked that Indy looked like a “gay rock star”! I was tickled to bits (rolled on floor laughing) but the more I looked at Indy, the more I tend to agree that the smiley-tshirt on Indy reminds me of Elvis, Elton John or Liberace!
Anyway, it’s been four days now, and I felt sorry for Indy, not being able to groom himself with the tshirt on. The wound had healed remarkably well on the very next day itself, bu...

S.O.S :- Puppies abandoned by Mom
Dear Ms Chan,
I noticed a litter of puppies (4 to be exact) at the back of my home
on Sunday (17/02/2013). They were all soaking wet and shivering. As
such,I did a makeshift shelter with the excess bricks behind my home.
I am unable to bring them into my compound as I already have 2 dogs.
In addition my family are not supportive of me taking care of the
puppies.
However, I went t...

“Smallish” Female Dog For Adoption (Gilian Tan Gi Lian’s) 18th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare

Subject: Would you consider adopting a young girl dog?
To:
Dear friends,
Do you know anyone who would like to have a small breed dog?
A friend’s parents want to give it away; it is female, around 6 months of age.
First thing I did was ask, why are they giving it away? Apparently there is nothing wrong with the dog. It was given as a gift and I think the parents were not ready for the commitment. Still ...

Indy’s Wound Is Much Better! 17th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare
Hi everyone!! Look at my wound!!
It’s so, so much better today. It’s completely dried up!
I’d like to believe that the RM17.80 all-cotton tshirt contributed massively to the healing because it prevented the wound from being in contact with the floor. Of course the antibiotics are doing the work too.
We’ll keep the tshirt on since Indy isn’t complaining, until the wound heals a bit more.
With Friend Bunny last night. Aww…

Indy’s Little Green Raincoat 16th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare
I just gave Indy’s his second dose of antibiotics and took a peek at the wound. From our untrained eye, it looks drier (yay!!). Pray, pray, pray it’s just a wound and not mast cell tumour.
I managed to dab some povidone iodine on it too, and Indy didn’t make a fuss. I didn’t want to push my luck with cleansing it with Dermacyn this time. Also, I read the bottle, after 30 days of opening, the oxygen in the solution would be all gone and it’s just normal saline (tha...

Indy, Indy, What Happened?? 16th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare
This morning, I noticed a big wound on Indy’s underside, on his chest area. It looked like a lacerated wound to me, so I first cleaned it with Dermacyn and then applied povidone iodine on it. But Indy, being Indy, instantly licked up all the iodine. Of course when I was cleaning the wound, I got scratched and would you know it, Cleo also came to scratch me (for “doing something” to upset Indy!). Oh well, at least there is some camaraderie in place amongst them, which is good.

The Dog At The Workshop 16th Feb 2013, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/02/14/help-need ed-for-a-poor-dog-sandy-oois/
PAWS has investigated this case and visited the dog and owner:
This is a case of misunderstanding and wrong conclusion by the person who highlighted this case.
I went to that workshop during lunch hour and spoke to the owner of that dog. He told me that he actually have left food with his Indian neighbor to feed his dog while he is away for CNY. Upon checking with that Indian neighbor, the neighbour confirmed that i...
