9th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I went straight after work today to collect the tshirts. Ahh, the two boys weren't around, so it was just me and a diminutive lady shop assistant, who is three-quarters my size. We, two diminutive persons, loaded the four boxes and one plastic bag of tshirts into the trolley and proceeded down to the basement.Loaded onto trolley...Loaded into car.My trusty old Kelisa is equally diminutive, but has carried every single box of tshirts for two years now.I came home and tried on my size - Ladie...

Playtime For The Blueys!
9th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Kittens, just like human children, need toys and playthings for mental stimulation, so late last night, I decided to make a playhouse for them.Husband says he will use the blade to cut the doors and windows. There...we put the litter tray inside, and put the two kitties inside. This is Bagheera, right? Gosh, I can't tell them apart now...Yes, it is.Baloo was scared inside the house, so we quickly "opened" the house and let him out.He was so scared, he didn't dare move at all.Okay, come...

Sick Kitten In Need Of Fosterer (urgent)
8th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
This is a request from Sherlyn Hoh (0146276884): I found a kitten today near a drain covered with big red ants. It is underweight (weighs about 250gm) and is as big as my palm. Tried to feed it with kitten tuna, kitten biscuits, cat milk and water but it refused to eat or open its mouth. Took it to the vet. Vet found a big red ant in its anus. Also another ant hooked on its body. It's literally in bones. Doc says he's around 6-7 weeks (judging from the teeth) but size of about 4-5 weeks.Aft...

A Sad Story Of A Tortured Cat
8th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Tati Ambia shared this. It is a very, very sad story of a tortured cat.http://tatiambia.blogspot.com/2011/09/momo-mal aysian-cat-tortured-alive-saved.htmlI read it and I truly feel so very sad for poor Momo.The key to reducing the incidence of cruelty would be the following:1. Stricter penalty for animal abuse as a punitive measure to curb cruelty.2. Educate people that animals are no different from us. They may not be able to speak or reason like us, but they can suffer.For (1), we do not have ...

Fatimah's Updates
8th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Aimy says Fatimah is doing well.Get well soon and have a happy life, Fatimah!Aimy has also asked me how to look after a blind animal. I do not know, because Bobby became blind only in his old age. He had grown up in this house, so it wasn't a problem for him at all. He knows every part of the house and is still able to go up and down the stairs. He still follows me all over, every step of the way. Even if I were to sneak to the bathroom while he is fast asleep, the moment I come out, he would be...

Danny Ong, a student, wrote to me a while ago about this wild rabbit that he and his friends had rescued and were looking after in Semenyih. But since the semester had started again, they could no longer look after it and hence, they asked for advice:I am a student studying in Semenyih and live with a couple of my friends in Taman Tasik Semenyih (TTS). It so happen that one day (in July) we found a rabbit running wild outside our house and we managed to catch it and care for it until this v...

The Blueys Go For A Car-Ride...to The Vet's!
8th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Bagheera's appetite had been so incredibly good today. Although I already stagger his feeds, giving him not more than 3ml per round, and letting him walk around to play a bit before the next round, in one hour, he would take as much as 10-12ml of milk.His stomach looked bloated today, so I thought he probably has worms. I know all kittens need to be dewormed, but the tricky question is - WHEN? Best to ask the vet. Our vets normally deworm if the kitten looks fit enough. Some vets deworm only aft...

Our Hero's Ready To Fly!
8th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I managed to peep in on Hero this evening just before the clinic closed for the day. The vets says he is doing well. Hi Hero!He mewed loudly, sat up and walked towards the door when he saw me. He definitely looks so much better today, compared to yesterday. He's quite photogenic, isn't he? I'll bet he can earn a good living working as a male feline model for catfood advertisements. Look at those eyes! Good boy, Hero...I offered some kibbles, but he didn't want any. After...

Aimy texted to say Fatimah's surgery went well and her daughter will be bringing Fatimah home today. We're very glad to hear this. I went to the clinic to see Hero today, but there was surgery going on upstairs so I could not see him.
