Sunshine’s Updates 28th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Based on the vet’s advice when we brought Sunshine to him yesterday, there is no need to test Sunshine for heartworms (because she is still young, estimated to be below 1 year old) to start her on Heartgard.
We offered the choice of using Revolution, Advocate or Heartgard and Lydia decided just Heartgard would do since Sunshine is not in an environment which has ticks.
We’ve sponsored her Heartgard for 6 months at RM60 per pack.
The vet said to test her for heartworms after 7 months ...

Imm’s Shelter Comes On Board…IF We Win! 28th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I wrote to Judy Chua last week, asking if Phaik Imm could do with some funds for her 60 dogs and cats in her small shelter in Tambun, Ipoh. If you’ve been a reader of this blog, you’d know that Phaik Imm is 64 now and is still running her shelter with help from a few committed volunteers.
We did a one-time fund raising her last year and with very careful and stringent management, she has not needed to ask for anymore financial help since then. Also, we were lucky that two of our frie...

Bobby Meets Sunshine At The Vet’s 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Bobby had a lot of eye discharge this morning and the liquid looked pink, so I took him to the vet’s.
Coincidentally we had also made an appointment for Sunshine, so we met up.
Waiting for our turn.
The vet said Bobby is actually in pretty good shape for his age. I was concerned about his weight loss. His weight used to be around 5.2kg, but he is now only 4.5kg. But the vet said this is quite expected as one ages. Also, with the house-move and all, his meals has not been regular becaus...

H i Sir/Madam,
My husband picked up a kitten at our apartment few days ago. As I am

Though I have totally no animal experience, I am certain that the

22nd Jan 12 and thus far she only defecates and urinates at balcony

Pregnant Stray Cat In Need Of A Home (Dr Veeranoot Nissapatorn’s) 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Sometime early last year, Dr Veeranoot chanced upon a pregnant cat in SS17. She rescued the cat, gave her a safe and loving home to deliver her babies (all 6 of them!) and the mother-cat (Kwanjit) is now still with the good doctor.
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/03/25/k wanjits-babies/
Now, Dr Veeranoot encounters another pregnant cat and though she would like to do the same for this cat, she lives in an apartment where the neighbours do not look kindly upon pets.
Would anyone be able to hel...

Casper, Shih Tzu For Adoption (Koo’s) 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From Koo:
Dear Dr Chan,
Thank you very much for posting the found Shih Tzu (reference:http://myanimalcare.org/2011/12/09/foun d-terrier-mix-at-bandar-utama-koos-2/ ) last year but unfortunately, despite our best efforts, we are unable to trace the owner to date. As a result, we’re confident that we have exhausted all avenues and waited long enough (almost two months!) for any claims. So, Casper (his temporary foster name) is now up for adoption. Thus, we would appreciate it very m...

Terry, Rescued Elderly Dog, Tested And Neutered (Jennifer SL Leong’s) 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Terry is a rescued elderly dog, currently under the care of Jennifer SL Leong.
Terry’s history: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/01/18/subsi dy-for-terry-rescued-dog-with-gum-problem-jennifer -sl-leongs/
We recently subsidised Terry’s dental treatment.
Last week, Terry was scheduled to be neutered, but upon the advice of the vet, a full blood profile should be done since Terry is considered an elderly dog (estimated to be at least 7 years old).

More Updates On The Baby Alligator/crocodile 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/01/26/the-poor- baby-alligatorcrocodile/
Thanks to Nandhini’s unrelenting spirit in saving this poor baby, Surin (Nandhini’s boyfriend) sent the photo of this alligator to his friend who in turn sent it to the Director himself, a Dr Siva, who has asked their enforcement team to look into this matter. Apparently, even if the owner has a permit, he should keep the alligator in a pond and not an aquarium.
But in the first place, if we are so bold to as...

We Need More Votes, Please! (Sunsuper Dreams) 27th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Dear Friends,
We only have FOUR more days to go in this contest. The Kenyan Dream chalked up more than 1000 votes in the last two days to emerge in the No.2 position now. They look set to topple us by today.
While we cannot question their manner of voting (garnering 2-3 votes per minute, around the clock!) or the fact that they were once removed and again, had 2800 votes removed (illegal votes), we still hope we can get more votes, if only to show that truth and justice will prevail, and that we...

People…people Who Need People… 26th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
…are the luckiest people…in the world.
Indeed, they are.
“People” is one of my all-time favourite songs by one of my all-time favourite singers, Barbra Streisand. Who do you think accompanied me tonight as I glued myself to the TV (one of those rare occasions where I have time for such luxury) to watch Barbra Streisand’s 1967 Central Park performance…?
Pole seems to share my taste of music…
No more hunger and thirst
But first be a person who needs ...

The Poor Baby Alligator/crocodile 26th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/01/26/updates-o n-the-baby-alligator-nandhinis/
Nandhini says the Wildlife Dept informed her that that restaurant owner has the license to keep the baby crocodile.
Now, that is sad. The poor thing belongs in the wild.
Updates at 9.00am (27th Jan) – Have just checked. If the Wildlife Dept says “ok”, there is no higher authority to appeal to when it comes to wild animals.

A New Cat On The Block? 26th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
We’ve been having many human as well as cat visitors ever since we moved in.
Well, there are Mr Gorilla, Shadow, a ginger cat (good friends with Mr Gorilla) and the Snow White Sisters (an adult version of the Blueys).
Today, we had another visitor….
It looks like a bluepoint and it’s a female. The poor little kitty was mewing quite a bit. I put some Go! kibbles out for her but she did not eat any, just kept mewing and mewing, trying to tell me something. Her voice was also v...

Indy And Bobby’s Acupuncture 26th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Today, Dr Susanna came over for Indy and Bobby’s acupuncture.
Indy is still anaemic (from the paleness of the mucus membrane), but Dr S said the animal’s clinical condition is a better gauge than anything else, so since Indy appears to be fine, it should not be a cause for grave or immediate concern or worry. Indy has been behaving very normally and very “Indy-ly” ever since the last treatment. It was like an immediate total recovery for him. But this time, we are not ta...

Do You Dry-Pill Your Animal? 26th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
That means, do you, like me, force-feed your animal a pill or capsule without giving it liquids?
If you do, you may wish to read this: http://catinfo.org/?link=pillingcats
ItR 17;s from Dr Susanna.
I think it makes a lot of sense. Just thinking about how painful it is for us to swallow a pill dry, I already feel the pain in my throat! It also causes possible abrasions to the animals’ esophagus.
The link offers alternatives.
