Food Donation For Meiji's 125 Dogs
26th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Meiji Lai single-handedly runs a dog sanctuary up in the hills in Raub, which is currently home to 125 dogs. She taps rubber to sustain the sanctuary. We have been helping Meiji with the spay-neuter and medical needs of her dogs for two years now. Meiji has since stopped taking in new dogs because her sanctuary is full, but she needs funds for the daily running of the sanctuary. All her dogs are spayed-neutered and vaccinated. She ferries the dogs all the way from R...

Updates On The 5 Gingershells
26th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Four of the Gingershells are doing well. But one of them (a tortoiseshell) had blood in her stools (diarrhoea) yesterday evening. I told Nandhini to separate this kitten from the rest and syringe-feed water to prevent dehydration. The kitten is still active and it is not massively bleeding but we don't take chances. So, this morning, Nandhini is bringing her to the vet's. We're calling her Mulan. Mulan is probably the weakest of the lot. She's also the m...

Updates On Amber
26th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Amber started bleeding a little again. Long story cut short, Krystal sent her to the vet yesterday and Amber was given another chemotherapy jab. It could be the start of a relapse, but luckily Krystal saw the blood and another jab has been given now. Amber just needs to be monitored for a few more weeks. The treatment is sponsored from our funds.

What A Long, Long Day.....
26th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday had truly been a very long day of animal-related work.I'll post all the not-so-nice news here in one posting, and all the better, hopeful and our regular news in separate postings after this....1. Goldie's case is far more complicated than what meets the eye. It's very sad to know that there is so much dishonesty in this small circle of humans who are supposed to be sympathetic towards animals. The bottom line is, thank goodness Goldie is safe in her first fosterer, R...

Klinik Kembiri Offer By KTAJ
26th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Klinik Kembiri, as I understand it, was set up for the purpose of spaying-neutering stray and rescued animals. It is subsidised by the SPCA, hence, they can offer the lowest rates in town.We have always encouraged people to send their animals to Klinik Kembiri, especially if the numbers is big. The only reason we still offer our Subang Jaya vets is to facilitate those who cannot travel too far. KTAJ is now offering their SNIP programme rates to everyone:Hi Dr Chan, KTAJ (K...

And Someone Else Also Has The Will To Live On
25th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
As I was having hot soup for dinner yesterday (after having not eaten much for the last two days!), I received a call from Wani, all the way from London. Wani was very upset; I could hear she was in tears. Apparently, one of their rescues, a dog named Goldie (who is blind and has other health problems), had been adopted but the adopter had just sent the dog to be euthanised at the SPCA today, without Wani's knowledge.Long story cut short, Wani asked me to help get the remains of the ...

Toby Goes Home!!
25th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Toby was also another "near-euthanasia" case where the vet had suggested to have him put down. He had kidney insufficiency, had been vomiting and then, had stopped eating. The blood tests clearly indicated "renal insufficiency" (which is slightly less severe than total renal failure, if I want to be technically correct, that is). He was put on drips, given antibiotics, but still wasn't too well on the second day.CP went to give him an hour's healing that evening. He improv...

25th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Who is this pretty little cat?Why, it's Bushytail!!For those how have not been following our stories, Bushytail was brought in with necrotising mastitis (infection of the mammary glands, not one, but several) and pyometra. Euthanasia was suggested by the vet as she was in a very bad state, but surgery was also an option, though extremely risky as she was very weak. So, surgery it was. During the surgery, it was found the infection was so widespread, the vets could not remove al...

Abandoned Dog For Adoption (real Cutie!)
24th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
This is a wee bit of a complicated story as it's received from a third party, so I'll do my best to report it as I understand it. A dog was found abandoned at an apartment area in Puchong. The guards took in the dog, and have now tied it up. They are feeding the dog, but not providing it any shelter from the rain or the sun. It's been two days now. One of the apartment dwellers, a Ms Latha (012-4633788) has taken on the responsibility of trying to find an adopter fo...
