The management gave us 1 week to rehome them or they will call the council again...

Oscar, Missing Dog In USJ13 (Eileen Ng’s) – FOUND!! 24th Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Updates on 25th Nov – Oscar has been found!!
We often lament about intolerant and unhelpful neighbours who do not like animals, neighbours who complain, etc. But here is a heartwarming story that will put our faith back on humans.
From Eileen:
A big thanks to Mr Balan from USJ9 who kept Oscar for the last 2 days. He let Oscar out this morning and was going to follow him to see if he knows where to return. I started my hunt in USJ19 this morning and hit the jackpot!

On A Rainy Day, Where Are The Community Cats? 24th Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
It rained this morning in Subang Jaya and I didn’t see the community cats eating at the pavilion. I suspect there is a rain shelter somewhere, a “secret” place only for the cats. I hope there is, so that they don’t get wet (and fall sick).
I went out to look for Rosie…
Hmm…where is Rosie?
And there…she came running and meowing!
For a special treat, she gets Monge Atlantic Tuna with her raw food today.
I saw two fleas on Rosie, but I’m a littl...

Feline Wars And Other Tales 23rd Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
If you remember, sometime last week, I noticed a new cat on the block. He looked exactly like Bosco in terms of size and markings, the only difference being the fact that Bosco had Bunny-coloured markings while this new cat has ginger markings on white. He’s been around and just the other day, he was resting on Rosie’s favourite table in our compound and I managed to identify him as a male. His face resembles Bosco when Bosco first came – he has that sharp face and is rather th...

Adopter Needed Urgently For Newborn Kitten (Azella Natasia’s) 23rd Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Updates at 8.50pm: Blanket is with Megaa now and Megaa says she looks very healthy. Thanks, Megaa!
Updates at 4.40pm: Azella managed to feed the kitten 1cc of milk and the kitten open its eyes! It’s not a newborn, after all, and that’s a relief as it would be easier to foster. She’s probably a female, being Calico. Azella has named her “Blanket”. Etta’s fosterer will look after Blanket until another adopter can be found; otherwise, Blanket can stay on with her...

Max Lightyear: To Infinity And Beyond!! 23rd Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Here are happy updates from Lydia:
Hi Kah Yein,
Max is doing well and just zipping around keeping really busy playing with his toys and friends. He is so clever and interactive and has learnt very quicky to “Fetch”!!
His last visit to the vet on Mon showed even more improvements on his blood test although his red blood cell count, haemoglobin and PCV are still below normal levels so we are continuing his antibiotics for another two weeks to make it a month in total. The vet was v...

No More Publicising For Fosterers, Only For Adoptions 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Effective today, please be informed that we will no longer be able to publicise for fostering unless it is for our sponsored animals. We will, however, still publicise for adoptions.
The reason is, we can take full responsibility for our sponsored animals, but we cannot do the same for the animals of other rescuers.
Off and on, we encounter cases where some rescuers who ask for fostering help through us do not honour their word of taking back the animals after the agreed period of time. We have ...

Something To Share From The VSS Newsletter – Why Love One But Eat The Other? 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
It’s thanksgiving soon for the westerners and the demand for the poor turkey will heighten. It’s like just over here – when it’s Chinese New Year season, the slaughterhouses go on full swing.
Here is something from the VSS below and there is a link to the PETA message too. Take a look and maybe we could make one for Chinese New Year, eh?
Our message has always been a moderate (hopefully, non-offensive) one: Please let’s eat LESS meat.

Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/11/06/mighty-ma x-lightyears-diagnosis-from-lydia/
After that scare where Max’s PCV dropped until 12% and was diagnosed as having tick fever, Max has shown a steady improvement all the way and now, according to Lydia, he has almost doubled his weight and is actively playing and running around, as all healthy puppies should.
