A Case Of “innocent” Cultural Difference? 27th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Here is a story to share for today. I would put it as a case of innocent cultural difference.
You probably know that certain communities in the world eat dogs. Not only is it a delicacy, but rather, it is their staple food. Dogmeat is sold in their markets, dogs are bred in their homes as food (like village folks breeding chickens meant as food for the family). Apparently, another reader told me about a youtube which showed how children in that culture go select a cute puppy (as our village folk...

Baggy Ate Four Times Today! 26th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Today, we have a blessing to celebrate, because Baggy came out to the pantry on her own and ate four times!
At breakfast, she came out with the rest.
That’s Baggy sitting on the blue box.
She only wants the ID and nothing else. Today is canned food day since I forgot to defrost the home-cooked food last night. Baggy doesn’t want to even touch the Natural Balance, only the ID. Maybe she knows what she needs.
I also saw her urinate in the litter-box, so that’s a ...

A Story From A Russian Shelter 26th May 2012, by AnimalCare
And we continue to learn from others…
http://www.care2.com/causes/new-russ ian-shelter-shines-kindness-on-homeless-animals.ht ml
Street animals need help….everywhere in the world.
In some communities, help is already well-established. In others, not so. But we have to start somewhere.
That is why we propose helping those on our street first (One-Street CNRM), then we spread the word or we spread our wings and help those who are further.
That is also the story of AnimalCare. We starte...

Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/05/23/karat-the -cat-is-fine-after-surgery-shaidatulainis/
We have subsidised RM80 for Karat’s neutering.
Karat, I’m sure you remember, is the cat whose testicles were tied up by someone with a string which looked like a rubber hairband. He was brought to the vet by Shaidatul (his rescuer) and he has been neutered since. Karat is fine now, all thanks to Shaidatul.
Here’s the latest from Shaidatul:

Mabuhay! The Filipino Cat (a Sharing By Dr Veeranoot Nissapatorn) 26th May 2012, by AnimalCare
And here is another lovely sharing by Dr Veeranoot. It goes to show that wherever we are, there are always opportunities to perform an act of kindness. And remember, maybe we cannot change the world by saving one animal, but we can certainly change the whole world for that one animal whom we save.
Mabuhay’s whole world was changed the day Dr Veeranoot crossed her path. Read on and be inspired!
Dear Sis Chan,
Thank you very much for allowing me to share this beautiful and
unforgettable stor...

Baggy Eats Dinner! 25th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Ever since that one breakfast yesterday morning, Baggy had not been interested in food at all, so it was back to force-feeding until…dinner just now.
But all throughout the day, I had been force-feeding her small amounts at about 2-hour intervals except for the morning when I was at work.
At dinner time, she came out all by herself to join the rest and I quickly served her three spoonfuls of whatever we had – ID, Natural Balance and home-cooked – take your pick, Baggy, as long ...

Spaying Sponsorship For Ah Moon, Female Cat (Amy Kwek Loo Lan’s) 25th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/03/28/help-for- ah-moon-the-cat-amy-kweks/
Sometime in March 2012, a flower pot fell on Ah Moon and she was quite badly injured. Amy wrote in to seek help and we recommended that she consult Lydia. Lydia taught Amy how to address the problem with massage, and coupled with a vet’s consultation, Ah Moon slowly recovered.

Spaying Subsidy For Another Female Cat From The Market (Ah Fatt’s) 25th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Ah Fatt’s real name is Then Lai Fatt, but he only wants to be known as “Ah Fatt”. He is a fishmonger at the SS14 market but spends his after-work time doing animal rescue. We have known Ah Fatt for three years now, and have been supporting his work.
Ah Fatt, together with a cat-loving friend who owns a small business nearby, takes care of the market cats. They even maintain a nice cat-space at the back of the market, complete with cages, litter-trays and feeding bowls. But many...

Spaying Subsidy For 1 Female Cat From The Marketplace (Hew Sook Yean’s) 25th May 2012, by AnimalCare
This would be the 6th cat we’ve subsidised for spaying, brought in by Hew Sook Yean, a butcher from the USJ marketplace.
RM100 has been banked into Ms Hew’s account.
Ms Hew is going to bring in as many cats as possible from the market for neutering. She does this with the help of her father, and the clinic vet assistant helps her to take the photographs and sends them to us. Which goes to show, even if one doesn’t have the resources, one can always seek help, and that is calle...

Baggy’s Evening Adventure With The Gang 24th May 2012, by AnimalCare
After that one hearty breakfast, Baggy wasn’t interested in food anymore throughout the day, so it was back to force-feeding small amounts. But then again, she has a very small appetite to begin with (just like Pole and Cleo – these two mother-daughter can survive with just one meal a day, if the taste is not right, unlike Tabs, where the taste is ALWAYS right! Her only contender is Bunny, or does she eat more than Bunny now? I think she does!)
Really, nothing beats being with go...

Cici can already go home!
Thank you, everyone, for your prayers and good wishes.
Note: Cici is a 2-month old kitten with glaucoma in one eye. Surgery at this age is risky, but the eye started bleeding a few days ago, which made surgery necessary to prevent further infection and other health complications. The surgery was done th...
