Indy Escapes Again….sigh 10th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
This morning, I came downstairs and found Indy on Mr G’s ledge. He had escaped again!
He’s trying to come back inside but doesn’t know how.
Obviously, he’s been looking at Mr G, but hasn’t learnt the trick of getting back into the house from the ledge. So I lured him to walk along the ledge, hoping he would just walk all the way to the front and I’ll guide him back into the garden, but upon approaching the corner, he did not know how to turn! Now, how did M...

Baggy Gains Lots Of Confidence! 9th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
I think I can safely say that Baggy has fitted in very well now. She troops all over, including across my laptop and desk while I’m doing my work, and she mews to let me know what she wants. She even taps me on my arm, sometimes.
Sleeping on the shelf, which is normally Bunny’s favourite “leoparding” place.
Sitting with Indy, observing Tabs.
The self-appointed guardian of the books?
Lounging at the Clubhouse.
Her territory is on my desk.
And on my laptop.

Updates From Imm’s Shelter (from Judy Chua, Ipoh) 8th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
On 4th March 2011, my friend, Judy Chua, wrote to me about how Oei Phaik Imm was barely managing at running her shelter in Ipoh. Things were really bad at that time and Imm was desperately in need of emotional, financial and physical help. Imm was on the verge of a breakdown.

I blogged for help and emails were blasted out. Help poured in most generously and within weeks, things were in place again, slowly b...

A Story Of Perseverance For A Distemper Dog (from Carol Chong, Ipoh) 8th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
Carol Chong contacted me 3 months ago when she first started fostering a distemper dog, who, at that time, was given no hope of recovery. Carol did not want me to tell her story until now.
Here it is, in chronological order:

Bobby’s Indigestion Problem 7th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
For the whole of last week, Bobby had been very difficult to feed. He didn’t seem to want to eat and had to be force-fed. I thought he was tired of the home-cooked food, so I gave him canned food. It was then that he threw up all the food, and had those gluey stools again. It is pasty, like glue.
That day itself, I got him Gentle Digest, which is prebiotics and probiotics for dogs and cats. The last time, it worked very well for him. Luckily my vet has it.

Indy’s Double-Escape! 7th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
This morning, when I came downstairs and fed the cats, Indy was no where to be found. I searched everywhere in the room and garden and he was not in Bunny’s Place!
After a frantic search, with all the cats following me (including Baggy), I found Indy right outside the Stargate – exactly where Mr G hangs out every evening. The naughty boy must have escaped sometime during the night and wandered out for a midnight stroll. I couldn’t figure out how on earth he got out, though, but...

Take a look: http://www.care2.com/causes/venezuelan-resc ue-team-helps-thousands-of-dogs-and-cats.html
Comm unities all over the world are joining the bandwagon of neutering street animals as a compassionate way of dealing with the stray population.
Let’s do our part too. For each street animal that we help get neutered, hundreds of unnecessary sufferings will be prevented.
Come CNRM! You bring in the animals, we provide the subsidies.

Another Diaphragmatic Hernia Case In A Kitten (Maslinda Abu Talib’s) 7th Jun 2012, by AnimalCare
It is sad the rescued kittens are diagnosed with diaphragmatic hernia and they are too young to undergo surgery. If you remember Chewie’s case – it was diaphragmatic hernia as well. Chewie was actually too young to undergo surgery, but it was necessary to save her life or she might suffocate to death. The surgery was successful, but somehow, she mysteriously passed on a few days later at her new home.
How is a young street kitten afflicted with diaphragmatic hernia? It could be due t...

So metimes all we can do is rescue, adopt and take good care of one or two street animals for life, and we do not have any resources to do anymore. That’s perfectly okay, because that is what we are able to do. The point is not about numbers, but about doing a good job with whatever resources we have.
