Sunsuper-Food For PAWS, With Our Heartfelt Gratitude
15th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
PAWS has helped us a lot ever since we started, right from the days of our Klang rescue until now. Their management has offered us boarding for our Klang and Selayang rescues, subsidised vaccinations for the needy rescuers who come through us, reduced surrender rates (sometimes, totally waived) for financially-deprived rescuers, free spay-neuter for Meiji and Kwai Chee at Teluk Chamang, offered to provide free spay-neuter for several other bigtime rescuers (but the rescuers themselves could not ...

Trapped Puppy Rescued – A Very Heartwarming Puppy Tale!
14th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Just as we had our own trapped cat story (http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/13/what-to-do-if- your-animal-is-trapped/) recently, which, fortunately, ended well (the cat was rescued), here’s another successful rescue story from the U.S.
It’s nice to know that in Michigan, one could call their Humane Society should rescue aid be needed for animals, and nicer to know that they have the humanpower, equipment and heart to respond.

What To Do If Your Animal Is Trapped
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Last weekend, my friend, Mei Leng, called me late one night.
Mei Leng feeds her apartment cats and she has even got them spayed-neutered. One of these cats (one called “Michelle”) had apparently got trapped in the pump room and Mei Leng could not get anyone to open the door for her.
Mei Leng went out on her evening rounds to feed Michelle and friends, but when Michelle did not turn up, Mei Leng searched for her, and when her name was called, Michelle meowed very loudly.
The meowing w...

Reaching Out To The Young
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Last Sunday, I was invited by the Subang Jaya Buddhist Association to talk about kindness to animals to their Sunday School children.
Children?
Those little humans who’d prefer to run around all over the place?
Yes, those kind.
OK, they are our future, I remind myself. This, I must do.
However, talking to children has never been my forte, so if I’m invited to talk about anything else to children, I’d always recommend my friends who specialise in “handling” children,...

13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
From Seng Hoe (senghoe@gmail.com):
Would like to request your help to pass the word around your network if anyone is kind enough to adopt my brother’s dogs.
He migrated to Australia and he has 3 lovely dogs up for adoption.
The dogs are very friendly and have very good temperament with children as they grew up with my brother’s 2 young kids.
We tried to adopt one of the dogs but due to my dad’s sickness, we had to give up after a while as taking care of my dad takes up all ...

The Gang Goes For A Garden Tour
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Bobby gets a walk-around every evening nowadays, and the cats were looking longingly too, so we decided to let them out. For Cow, Bunny, Tiger and Cleo, it would be their first time out into the garden.
Bobby’s dinner. This is the only way he’d eat.
Pole and Indy are outdoor “regulars” by now.
By the way, today, I found Indy on top of our fridge, which is at least 6 foot high. How on earth did he jump up? But there he was, proudly strutting on top of the fri...

Meeting Daisy Duck, The Mighty Thor, Dewey The Librarian And Their Guardian-Angel
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Last night, the fosterer (who requested anonymity AND is doing a marvelous job) wrote to say Daisy had taken a turn for the worst. We were all so worried because we know sometimes, kittens just take a turn for the worst and go down very, very fast and there is nothing much we can do.
I know exactly how the fosterer was feeling because I have experienced that before, too, with Jelly, who despite all my efforts, including 3am trips to vet’s (under emergency call-back) for sub-cut fluids, she...

Second Subsidy For Silver, Sporo Cat (Elaine Tan’s)
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
We have banked in our second subsidy of RM262.50 for Silver, Elaine’s rescued sporo-cat. This brings our total subsidy to RM525.00, which has already exceeded our maximum of RM500.00.
Since it is the nature of sporotrichosis that treatment takes many months, we have provided more than our maximum of RM500.00 for Silver.
Elaine says the vet advised her that Silver may need treatment for another 4 months. Each month, the cost is RM750.
For the next claim, Elaine will be applying to another f...

Lost Dog, Looking For His Owner (Erica Jeremiah’s)
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
From Erica Jeremiah (erica@kampongkravers.com):
Dear Dr., your friend, Connie, came across my advert on PetFinder.my and she requested for me to send a copy of the Dog’s picture so that you can also help spread it out. It has been 2weeks, and the owner had not come forth to reclaim him. The dog is currently being fostered by a good neighbour who is not really well to do and I fear for the burden that is being inflicted onto the Good Samaritan.
I hope you can help us on this. Attached is a co...

Daisy Is Doing Better This Morning (from The Fosterer)
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/12/little-daisy-ne eds-our-prayers/
Thank you, everyone, for your prayers. Daisy is doing better this morning (aren’t we all so relieved!) and the fosterer is bringing all three of them to our vet today for a second opinion.
From the fosterer:
Daisy is a bit better than last night. She drank a bit of milk this morning. She started meow, compared to last night being motionless. I made Rice Socks for her to put inside her sleeping pot. I have this huge me...

Dog In Critical Condition Passes Away (Shirley’s)
13th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/12/urgent-dog-bloo d-donor-required-shirley-wongs/
The vet just informed me that the dog passed away last night, one hour after the blood results came back. His blood count was 9.1. A normal reading is 44, and any reading below 12 cannot sustain life anymore. The vet said the dog could not have possibly got into this condition overnight. It must have been a gradual deterioration.
The rescuer, Shirley, called me last Saturday (4th Feb) to seek assistance and I...

Little Daisy Needs Our Prayers
12th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
The 3 musketeers’ fosterer just texted to say Daisy hasn’t been doing well since this afternoon. She has stopped drinking milk and has quickly gone back to her skinny look. It all happened too quickly. Far too soon. There is still a lot of worms in her poo as well. The fosterer has been giving glucose syrup every 2 hours. She says she doesn’t know what else to do.
Here’s what I can share:
1. Hold Daisy close to her heart and keep her warm. Our heartbeat represents our lov...

Urgent: Dog Blood Donor Required (Shirley Wong’s)
12th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/12/dog-in-cr itical-condition-shirley-wongs/
Shirley called an hour ago saying the dog (she has called him “Bobby”) needs blood transfusion because his red blood count is very low (normal reading is 40, his is only 9).
The vet has asked her to prepare dog blood donors for Bobby.
If your dog can help, please call Gasing Hospital (03-77823553) to offer. Ref: Blood donor for “Bobby” (Shirley Wong’s dog).

Dog, In Critical Condition (Shirley’s)
12th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
A lady called Shirley called me last week, asking if we could help subsidise the treatment of a rescued dog. I offered our usual subsidy and advised her to take the dog to the vet’s as soon as possible.
Subsequently, there was no photo and no news, so I thought the dog did not need any treatment, or Shirley did not need any subsidy.
Yesterday, Shirley called again saying the dog was in bad shape. It was shivering and could not be approached anymore. Shirley said she could not get the dog i...

Subsidy For Flower And Coco, Survivors Of Feline Panleukopenia (Anita Chen’s)
12th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Flower and Coco are two rescued cats of Anita Chen’s. Both came down with feline panleukopenia, a frightening disease, also known more commonly as feline distemper which is caused by the feline parvovirus. Interestingly, the feline parvovirus was discovered first, and is thought to have mutated to become the canine parvovirus which affects dogs.
