MDDB’s Press Conference On Dog-Catching And Illegal Trespassing
12th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
Wani of MDDB has requested this post:
Dear KY,
As we know dog catching activities are becoming rampant these days with even pets confined within the house compound not being safe anymore. The perpetrators are private dog catching companies that have been commissioned by the local councils and the bounty can be anywhere between RM35 to RM55 per dog caught. We were also told that one local council has even offered a dog catching tender that comes with a bounty of RM100 for every dog caught. The la...

11th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/10/11/of-puppie s-with-inverted-rear-paws-and-its-possible-causes/
As per the post above, I have made enquiries from one vet over here and was told the surgery requiring the insertion of metal plates would cost as much as what was quoted by Kelly’s vet.
A friend from Ipoh is also helping to obtain more information from the vet (because Kelly is unable to comprehend the technical details) and has met up with the vet this afternoon. The vet said the cause ...

News From The Inside Clan
11th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
While outside everything seems to be quite peaceful…it has not been so inside.
The bosses, Bunny and Cow, get all worked up when they hear me outside with the outside clan. Sigh…maybe as my husband says, to be fair, I have to feed the outside clan outside the gate. The trouble with Bosco is that he keeps coming INTO the house and lounging everywhere, including our sofa. So, who can blame the inside clan for getting upset, right? After all, first and foremost, isn’t this their h...

News From The Outside Clan
11th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
Ginger has stopped hissing at Raven.
Bosco is his usual happy-g0-lucky self.
Peace on earth and goodwill to catkind?
Yes, you may, but not all of it.
The outside gang doesn’t like Hill’s anymore. They like SmartHeart. Oh well, which child does not like yummy food? Compare Koko Krunch to Oatmeal…
Nothing like a good sunbath!
Poor girl…it must be very itchy.
Use the wall for a good scratch.
After a good scratch, go poo….
Reasonably well-formed, ...

Is There Such Thing As “humane Meat”? (from PETA)
11th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
As a follow-up to the post: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/10/10/the-dogs -in-thailand-need-help-from-soi-dog/, here is something from PETA:
Many PETA members have contacted us to ask whether they should support so-called “humane” meat. It’s a question that we all should be asking because this issue is very important—particularly for the billions of animals who are killed for our plates every year.
If you look around, society is at a turning point. Everyone from the NFL’...

Raven (the Black Kitty) Has Mange
10th Oct 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/10/09/where-do- all-these-cats-come-from/
So, this morning, I brought the black kitty to the vet’s.
But wait, before that…this is what happened last night….
After my husband wire-netted Bunny’s Clubhouse sidegate, we waited, but the black kitty did not come back. Because of her skin condition, I was worried for my own cats (I know skin problems spread VERY fast), so I had to ensure she wouldn’t get into Bunny’s Place again.
