Here’s one remarkable story to start your weekend off!
From Dawn Tan:
Hi KY,
Enclosed and below are the photos for the LDP dog, and updates on Silver.
Please could you post up the LDP dog on your adoption page as well? Hope there will be a miracle for him.

This morning (Fri, 25Nov11) on the way to our vet with Silver (Elaine’s Sporo+FIV cat), we drove past a dog stranded at the middle divider of the LDP highway. He was alive, hardly moved, most likely injurd, an...

Updates On Sugar (Eling Chan’s) 25th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I checked with the vet today and Sugar’s blood tests results are out. They indicate she is fit enough to go through the surgery, but this can only be done on Tuesday since Monday is a public holiday and there is no surgery on weekends unless it is life-threatening.
Sugar even went for a walk and apparently, her front leg seemed okay.

Looking For A Vet In Klang (near Taman Eng Aun) Or A House….! 25th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/11/taman-eng-au n-dog-puppy-rescue/
Ah Fatt had been helping an elderly man (let’s just call him “Uncle”) in Klang. This Uncle feeds many stray dogs in Taman Eng Aun, but the Uncle doesn’t even have a house to stay in.
To cut a long story short, Ah Fatt wants to help this Uncle get the adult dogs spayed-neutered (and rightly so). Apparently, the dogs are friendly towards the Uncle so it should not be a problem to round them up and catch ...

This is a sharing from one of our readers who has successfully nursed a sporo-cat who was in dire straits:
Just read your blog re the Elain’s sporo cat case. Felt really bad for Burt as i did not do anything.
Hope this time it is a different case.
Whatever Elain do DO NOT touch the sore/wound directly without using gloves and by rubbing her entire hands and arms with antiseptic.
Best Providone Iodine. She is young girl. Mo...

Here’s her proposal:
I have a proposal for AnimalCare Society. As you might already knew, I’m running a private swimming class, CPR & lifesaving lessons. For private swimming class, we mostly teach ladies and our private pool in PJ is only open for ladies. Besides private swimming class, we also conduct lifesav...

Updates On Blacky (Jessy Lian’s) 25th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Some updates on Blacky, from Jessy Lian:
…I called the vet clinic to check whether Blacky is fit to be discharge. The vet assistant said Blacky’s stool is firm & did not have diarrhea (Phew, what a relief!). So, I straight away drove there to discharge Blacky & sent her to the pet shop for boarding.
We are subsidising Blacky’s medical bill, and Blacky is up for adoption. Interested, please call Jessy Lian on 016-2988636.

Pretty Mama Goes To Her New Home! (Jessy Lian’s) 25th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
It is always an occasion for celebration when an adult animal (or any animal, for that matter) gets adopted.
Pretty Mama had just given birth about 2 months ago. Unfortunately, due to not having a home to live in, all her kittens passed away. It was really sad when Jessy buried the kittens and Pretty Mama looked on closely. One cannot begin to wonder how that must feel for Pretty Mama.
But things soon perked up. Someone saw Pretty Mama’s photo on PetFinder and she looked exactly like their...

Another Sporo Cat (Elaine’s) 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, while I was at the clinic, I met Elaine, a college student. Elaine is a cat rescuer and she had just brought in a sporo cat. While we were there, the FIV-FeLV test was being done, and the cat was found to be FIV positive. I suggested that Elaine request for the RetroMAD1 since it has shown very good results with FIV symptomatic cats.
I also offered our medical help for the cat, should Elaine require it.
Upon further discussion, it turned out that Elaine is a student from my college!

Visiting Sugar (Eling Chan’s) 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/11/sugar-rescue d-dog-needs-hind-leg-amputation-eling-chans/
I went to check on Sugar today. Apparently, Sugar has a great appetite and gobbled up her food, which is a good sign. Part of her blood test results are out and to quote the vet, “it isn’t fantastic, but it isn’t that bad”. The vets were extremely busy today, so we did not want to take up too much of their time. The vets will wait for all the results to be in before proceed...

Having A Closer Look At Sunshine Courage’s X-Rays 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Today, my friend brought Sunshine’s X-Rays and we consulted our panel vet for his opinion.
The spinal chord IS broken at the lumbar vertebrae L6. It is obliterated and bits of it is crushed. From a medical point of view, an injury of this nature causes lifelong paralysis and Sunshine will not be able to walk again.
Her heart is not enlarged, but her lungs do not look too good.
Thanks to the homeopathy medicine from Dr Susanna, my friend was able to express all the compacted faeces you ...

Photos Of Sunshine Courage’s First Acupuncture Treatment 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
My friend sent these photos and a description of Sunshine Courage’s first acupuncture treatment on Monday:
Hi Kah Yein,
I just remembered that I hadn’t sent you the photos at Sunshine’s 1st acupuncture session at Dr Susanna’s clinic.
We did not take her out of the opened carrier as we wanted to minimise movement. The towel over her head has been useful in keeping her calm and she even fell asleep during the session with her head wrap on!!
I’d like to thank Joan Sh...

A Sunshiny Day For Sunshine Courage! 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Updates from my friend who is nursing Sunshine Courage (please note that my friend has requested anonymity, hence, she remains as “my friend”):
Hi Kah Yein,
Today has been an excellent day with Sunshine!
As far as I can tell, as of this morning, all the previously compacted poo has been removed manually. It must be such a relief to the system and I believe this opens the possibility of more healing as the body is not stressed by the accumulation of waste materials.
Previously when...

Saying My Piece, And Moving On… 24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I’m not in the habit of dwelling in the negative, but sometimes, in the course of dealing with so many different types of humans, the ugly human annoys you, and you just have to say your piece, if only to preserve your much-needed sanity.
I’ll get straight to the point, say all that I want to say and move on as there’s lots to do.
1. There are those who demand for help. Not ask, but demand. Please don’t do that. Nobody on earth owes anybody anything. Even our parents don&...

More Options For Sunshine Courage 23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Courage is now officially named “Sunshine Courage”, Sunshine is the nickname given by my friend who has agreed to nurse her for a few weeks.
I spoke to another vet today, just to widen my understanding of Courage’s condition and if she has more options.
According to this vet, it is recommended that spinal chord damage undergo reparative surgery within 2-6 hours of the trauma. After that, it might be too late and the damage would be settled.
For Courage’s case, we do not e...
