30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Mickey's owner has finally visited him. She says he looks as fine and sweet as ever. She said the vet will remove the catheter today. If Mickey can pee on his own, it means the rupture has healed and all is well. If not, another surgery may be needed.We'll pray that all goes well.

Putih's Surgery Is Delayed
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I texted the vet and he said Putih's surgery has not been done yet as he had to source for the materials. I have advised Beng Kai of his options for Putih, ie. if it is urgent, he could transfer Putih to another vet if Putih is fit enough to be moved. As Putih's rescuer, it is totally Beng Kai's decision. We are only helping with advice and funds. Updates at 4.15pm: The vet has sourced for the materials and the surgery will be done soon.

No Kill Advocacy Centre
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
The chairman of Selangor's SPCA shared this with me: http://www.nokilladvocacycenter.org/We've always advocated the No-Kill Policy. We do not condone euthanasia but instead, provide palliative care for terminal animals. We do not spay pregnant animals. We do not support capture-and-kill and that is why I pulled our support out of the petition initiated by the SPCA as proposals No. 2 and No. 3 was "to euthanise in humane ways" - we cannot support that, so I asked that our logo be remove...

The Story Of Difficult (challenging?) Humans
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I once gave a talk on "Dealing with Difficult Humans" and was told by a member of the audience that in the first place, perhaps we should never label people as "difficult" because that already gives them a negative connotation. Point taken.So can I call them "challenging" humans instead, or perhaps, humans who have been sent to earth by some higher force to teach me patience? As most people doing animal charity work will attest to, animals are never the problem, it's always the humans. Yet...

Callie's In Hospital Again (Pet Boarding Cruelty Case)
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
During the Pet Boarding fiasco, 16 out of the 300+ cats died as a result of not being fed food or water for 9 days or more during the Hari Raya holidays. A total of 12 cat graves were also later uncovered within the premises of the operators of that boarding place. As such, we are unsure of he death toll. Of the ones rescued, many had been identified by their respective owners and have been reunited. Many were traumatised and some needed medical attention. We helped out with the medica...

Please Pray For Putih (surgery This Morning)
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
This is regarding Putih, the neighbour's cat that Beng Kai rescued. I have just communicated with the vet and Putih needs a rather complicated surgery which involves the re-wiring of his broken jaw and insertion of a feeding tube. According to Beng Kai's conversation with the neighbour last night, the neighbour does not want Putih anymore after Putih was hit by a car. The accident caused injury to his jaw and eye area, plus head trauma. The neighbour (who is the owner) prefers that Putih b...

A Touching Story On Loyalty
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
This is from a comment by Connie. I'm reproducing it here for the benefit of all readers: My belated dad once brought home 2 cute puppies. He said he found those puppies inside a plastic bag which was hanging at the fence. He said to my mum these two pups are god's creature yet, human ( god's so called most intelligent creature) has no brain for leaving the pups to die. He made a promise to the two pups that he will take care them until his last breath. He did take good care of them.10 year...

Sharing Responsibility For Putih, A Cat
30th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Khoo Beng Kai had earlier written to me asking how he could help this white cat, Putih, who lives in his neighbourhood. We discussed what needed to be done, and I had not heard from Beng Kai until a few days ago... Hi Dr ChanI am not sure you still remember me or not. I first wrote to you last month.Sadly today at about 8pm the cat that I have been feeding got hit by a car. Then the cat ran very fast to some bushes. I went to look for him & found him to be bleeding at t...

One Female Cat Spayed (Francis Tze's)
29th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Today, Francis brought a female cat to be spayed under our sponsorship. The male (who is the brother) was neutered on Monday. These siblings' mother was also spayed under our sponsorship a few months ago when I first started the One-Street CNRM.This is but one of the many community cats that Francis feeds on a daily basis at the playground in SS18.This is exactly what we are striving for - to turn stray animals into community animals, to have one (or a few) people looking after them for the rest...

Updates On Mickey - Day 3
29th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I went to visit Mickey this evening, hoping the vets would be free so that I would be able to get some updates on his condition. Unfortunately, the vets were in surgery so I couldn't speak with them.Mickey seems alright to me. I have urged Mickey's owner to please visit him, but she says she has no transport. It would mean so much to Mickey if she could visit and spend some time with him. An animal wouldn't understand why he has been separated from his owner and his safe environment (his ho...

3 Female Cats Spayed (Nandhini's)
29th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Nandhini brought three female cats to be spayed under our full sponsorship today. These are amongst the cats that Nandhini feeds in her back alley. Unfortunately, neighbours have got together and complained over the feeding and looking after of these cats, so Nandhini has to relocate the cats with immediate effect for fear that these angry neighbours will do something to the cats. I saw these three cats when they were just babies, when Nandhini brought them to our vet for mange treatm...

Updates On Mickey
28th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I visited Mickey today and managed to speak with the vet. The vet said the prognosis is good, but not fantastic. During the surgery, there was a lot of urine welling inside already, and it was not clear where the rupture was but the vet suspects it is not at the end of the urinary tract but just before that. If this guess is right, then it becomes tricky. If the rupture was right at the end, the urethrostomy can be done if need be, but if it's not at the end (as the vet now suspects), then ...

Burt, A Male Cat With Sporotrichosis (Norshidah's)
28th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Norshidah's elderly mother feeds many cats in her neighbourhood, and Nor noticed that one of the cats (whom her mum calls "Burt") came up with a lot of "wounds" after a huge catfight one day. So she enquired if I could make an appointment for this cat to be treated. The appointment was arranged for this evening.Nor brought the cat in and at one look, and the vet said it is very, very likely to be Sporotrichosis. Sporotrichosis (like Puteri's case, but hers was just one spot on the nose) is a dee...
