Pole Escapes Again….
21st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Just when we thought we’d passed the acid test…
The quick white Pole jumped over the cat-grille!
THREE times today.
The first time, I was taking a bath, and Pole jumped over, ran upstairs and came to my room. My son quickly closed all the windows and locked her in.
I brought her back into the room, and before I could say “hello kitty”, she jumped out again, and this time, went upstairs to Ming-Yi’s room. I locked her in and ignored her cries. After 10 minutes, I ...

Pole Passes The Acid Test
21st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Yesterday evening, we plucked up courage and did something extremely brave….
We went out and left Pole in Bunny’s Place (room and garden) without putting her back into the condo. Yes, that was a very highly risky thing to do, but I just had to test out how Pole-proof Bunny’s Place is.
We spent about 3 hours away from home with the wooden door closed (cats have access into garden and room), and came home with bated breath…
Opened the wooden door and…
HI POLE!!!
Yo...

Here ’s updates from Anita:
Coco: After 7 hours of administering RetroMAD1, she is much more energetic, walking up and down the length of the house and playfully hopping after the broom. Still will not eat on her own but she did manage 2 or 3 kibbles. Will be forcefeeding her AD shortly. She meowed at everyone this morning, too.
Flower: Still hanging on.

Flower, Cat With Feline Panleukopenia (Cat Parvovirus) (Anita’s)
20th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
This morning, a rescuer by the name of Anita, texted me regarding two cats with “mysterious” symptoms. The brother started vomiting clear liquid, which changed to yellow vomit and subsequently died.
Now, the sister, named Flower, also showed the same symptoms.
I’m not a vet, so I cannot comment, but could only advise that Anita sends Flowers quickly to a vet for proper tests and a professional diagnosis. The rescuer sent Flower to a vet in PJ.
Meanwhile, I sought the advise of ...

The Last Of The Pole-Proofing
20th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Finally, the contractor came this morning and we proceeded to Pole-proof the last of the possible Poleways of escape!
I explained how Pole manages to escape from the clothes line to the water pipe, to the gutter and the roof.
We’d use another piece of polycarbonate to seal off this exit, the contractor says.
There…that’s done!
I didn’t have time to take Tabs out of the condo, and had to put Pole in when the contractor came in, so I just kept both of them in th...

“I’m Back On Track…for CNY!” – Says Indy
20th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Indy was up and about this morning. He walked out by himself for breakfast and after breakfast, he JUMPED (yes, JUMPED) up onto the highest shelf of the Cat Apartments in the room (his former favourite perch while at the old house) and has stayed there since.
I’m up again!
Yes, that’s our Indy, alright!!
Meanwhile, Tabby Inc. has taken over Pole’s condo.
Poor Pole had no place to go to, so she took over Bunny’s pink box.
I’m back on track, folks! Than...

Indy Feels Better!
20th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I’m one who lives IN the moment because I’ve learnt that that is all we have in life – moments.
So, my life is all about living IN the moment, doing the best I can, rejoicing if there is a reason to, and being patient and accepting if things are not working out right though I’ve done my best.
Right now, I’m rejoicing because….Indy seems to be feeling better this evening!
What could have trigger this change?
Well, let me see….
1. We had a stream of visito...

Da Jie, Female Cat Spayed In Melaka (Catherina Tay’s)
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Catherina Tay recently sent another one of her female street cats whom she looks after to be spayed under our subsidy scheme.
This time, Catherina has re-donated the RM100 back to our fund in memory of her late father, Mr TAY KIM SIAH (passed away on 19/1/2001) and also in memory of her cat, ROCKET (passed away 19/1/2011) in conjunction with their deaths anniversary on 19th January.
Thank you, Catherina, and may Mr Tay and Rocket, wherever they are now, rejoice in this noble deed of yours.

Dog Caged Up 24 Hours A Day (Mahesan Sivakumaran’s)
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From Mahesan:
Hi Dr.Chan,
These are the pictures of the dog. Below was an email which I composed and sent to the SPCA but there was no action taken. Quite some time after sending out the mail below, the dog ( I named him Max) was taken away by the security guards to another post somewhere nearby as I believe there are many Indian security guards there who were supposedly given the duty to take care of the dog. I visited Max once in a while and brought him food and I found that the new place was ...

Dear Dr. Chan,
I came across these 2 families in Bandar Kinrara, at the corner of
Jalan Kinrara 2 and Jalan BK 1/12. I have been feeding them for a week

already have many cats and a couple dogs (all also rescued off the
streets). I wish I have the space for these guys. The brown mommy has
7 pups and the black mommy has 8 pups. The pups are still suckling but

Terry Needs Blood Tests Done Before Neutering (Jennifer SL Leong’s)
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Jennifer SL Leong wrote in to apply for sponsorship for Terry’s neutering in December 2011.
Previously, we had just subsidsed Terry’s dental procedure.

This time round, we will still pay and Jennifer has agreed to re-donate RM20 back into our fund...

Playtime At Bunny’s Place!
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I think Pole has more or less settled (keeping my fingers crossed) now. She does not star-gaze anymore nowadays and has not attempted any escapades so far.
The contractor still has not turned up, so the gutter Poleway is not Pole-proofed yet.
This afternoon, Pole had a good game of hide-and-seek with Tabs!
It’s so good to see Pole having fun AND making friends.
They were chasing each other all over the garden.
Now, Tabs is stalking Pole. Can you see Pole?
See the two glowing eyes?

Indy’s Starts Acupuncture Again…
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Today was Indy’s acupuncture with Dr Susanna.
Indy went first…followed by Bobby, who objected a bit, then didn’t quite know what was going on (like, oh well, do what you must….).
The easy one.
The moment Indy was done and put into the carrier for the 25 mins, he pulled one needle out with his teeth.
Tabs kept him company and wouldn’t have minded if she had a needle or two. The girl is completely adorable.
Dr Susanna says Indy is very anaemic. Today, she did hi...

Eating Home-Cooked Meals
19th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Ever since Dr Susanna told me how important nutrition is for the cats and all other animals under our care, I immediately switched over to home-cooked food for my brood. I started with wetfood to make the transition and the next day, I immediately cooked for them.
Spurred and greatly encouraged by the fact that it took the good doctor THREE years to convert her fussy half-Persian, Mitzi, to switch from kibble to home-cooked, I thought I must not give up this time.
The heavens were shining on me,...
