We Appeal For Your Understanding And Cooperation - We Have Our Limitations Too
19th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Last weekend I was swarmed with calls, some of which involved the rescue of animals. Coincidentally last weekend I also had many other things to do which involved my other role as a public speaker. Many people do not realise that AnimalCare does NOT provide rescue services. We do not have the expertise nor skills to do such work. It is stated clearly in our policies but granted, some people do not find out just what is it that we do. Just because we are an animal welfare NPO, p...

A Coup-De-Tat Attempt....at Tiger's Baby Baskets
18th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Tiger may be Gandhi-personified and he may be the only cat who has never hissed at anyone, BUT woe betide whoever attempts to take his baby basket....And who might these brave (naive?) detractors be? It was a peaceful Saturday night. On cold and rainy nights, cats love to cuddle up, don't they?Watch....(caught in the act, by Ming-Yi while I was away): Hey Bagheera...baskets? It looks real comfy, doesn't it? But Uncle Tiger's sleeping in it...we shouldn't disturb him (says Bagheera).&nb...

Injured Kitten In Need Of Rescue And Help
18th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I received this last night, at 11:57pm (near midnight):There is a very young kitten near my house whose eyes seem to be unopened - don't know if she's blind - and both her hind legs are disabled (maybe injured). I really don't know how I can help her and I don't trust myself to. Reason being, I had a rather bad experience trying to nurse an injured baby bird when I was young. My friends and I were trying to warm her up on a cold rainy evening in Camerons - the idea was to hold her in our p...

The Food Story Continues
17th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I went to check out Petsmore to get the small packs of Orijen so that I can test it out for Bobby and the cats.They only had Orijen for Adult Dog and Acana for Adult Cat, so I bought these.The verdict so far - Bobby finished his Orijen (but had to mix with wetfood because he cannot smell out any dry food. Cow did not like Acana. The girl at the shop said Orijen and Acana are similar in taste. They did not have the small pack for Orijen. The rest of the cats are still having a si...

The Story Of Food
17th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
A shelter manager told me once that variety in food is the key when it comes to ensuring healthy nutrition for your pets. So, yesterday, I thought I should buy a new brand of catfood for my cats. Bobby had already achieved very significantly improved weight and demeanor after going on Canine Caviar for just THREE days, so I thought I should try the Feline Caviar for my cats. I went to Amy's shop and was told there were other choices as well. A friend had just told me about Orijen,...

Ah Fatt's Three Market Cats Spayed-Neutered
17th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, Ah Fatt managed to capture another three market cats and he brought them to our panel vet.All three have been spayed-neutered (2 females and 1 male) under our sponsorship now.Just after the operation.Ah Fatt says recently, there has been a lot of dumping at the market. Well, we know that's irresponsible, but the consolation is that it is the lesser of two evils. It's better than people dumping them along the highway where there is no one to look after them. Kudos to Ah Fat...

Don't Mess With The Guardcat!
17th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
The other day Azie came to my house to collect the gloves while I wasn't in. I had told her she could come right in as I'd left the gloves on the porch. Azie said my cats ran off when they saw Azie (a stranger) coming through the gate. All ran off....except one. Which one? This one!! Why, it's Tiger! Good ol' mild-mannered Tiger, Gandhi-reimcarnate in cat form. The one who has never fought with any other cat (or anyone, for that matter, except to claim back for his baby basket from the Sun...

Updates from Erica, on her rescues:Hi, it's been a while since updated with you. How are you? I'd named the 3rd kitten, Blue sky. Ha-ha, like a Red Indian’s name. Rainbow, Sunshine & Blue sky, represent a new beginning after the rain, a hope perhaps.He's very active & playful, this is why I could't catch his photoes nicely. Today I will bring him for his 2nd vaccination. By the way, I'd made appointment for Sunshine to spay on this coming Monday,19 Sept. I will bring her...

It's her Shamini Popiko Sasha Woof - now, that's the writer of the MDDB blog.Hey, Bobby used to do this as well. My children called it the Penyu Pose (Penyu = Turtle) because it looks like the flippers of a turtle.Wani says Shamini is too fat to do the Fish now.In case you're wondering how it came to be called the Fish Pose....actually, I don't know! My children started it when Cow fished around!I googled and found the yoga Fish Pose, which is nothing near our animals' Fish Pose!
