Amy Thum's Female Cat Spayed
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Two nights ago Amy borrowed one of our traps and managed to catch a female cat in her neighbourhood. She has been trying to catch this cat for two years....so, finally!!Apparently, this cat was so aggressive she climbed all over the clinic! And vet had to sedate her quickly and get her spayed. She was just beyond control...probably so angry at being trapped!When CNRM doesn't work, it would have to be TNRM. Here she is when first caught. Amy used fried fish as bait. ...

The Five Kittens Are Active And Very Much Alive (dumped In Styrofoam Box)
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
I had to arrange for boarding for the five kittens that were dumped in front of my gate (in a styrofoam box this morning) because they have diarrhoea and the flu. Here they are at the first clinic. Our vet has already dewormed all of them. Hopefully, the diarrhoea is due to worms and not a viral infection.They have also been fed small amounts of Baby Cat, and are very strong and active now. This is a far cry compared to this morning when my husband had first found t...

This Is What Some "Humans" Do
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
This morning, while I was at work, my husband called to tell me someone had dumped a box of five kittens in front of our gate. The five kittens were placed in the styrofoam box you see in the photo above, with a big rock on the lid. How can they breathe in a covered styrofoam box?The kittens looked dirty and quite sickly and were very weak when my husband found them. They felt extremely hot (because the styrofoam is not porous) and could barely move. He texted me and I to...

Reprinting Pawprints On My Heart (my First Book)
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Pawprints on My Heart was written in 2008. It tells the stories of my childhood pets and my rescue and caregiving work. It is my first non-academic book (there have been five more after that, and no more academic books!!). Since then, a total of 12,000 copies of Pawprints have been published, all for free distribution, and the sponsors have been all my friends and well-wishers. Writing books is my personal interest and I have never used AnimalCare's f...

Playtime For The Sunny Kittens
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
This morning, I tried to teach the Sunny Kittens to lap milk from a dish. After all, Rex has stopped sucking from the bottle. And this morning, Honeybear (!) did not want to suck as well. Come, kitties....it's milk. Nah...they weren't interested. Honeybear tried later, and splashed the milk all over the floor, and then he shook his little paw! It always starts off this way... Rex can lap, but he did not quite want to do it. I'm syringe-feeding ...

Emergency - Puppy Rescue From Puchong To PJ (fosterer Needed Urgently)
16th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
I met Koo and Mei Leng as they brought the rescued puppy from Puchong to Subang Jaya. Then, I led them to the clinic in PJ where there is an emergency call-up service. Koo and Mei Leng bringing in the puppy.Here's the puppy. Gosh, she is so tame. Koo said she barely put up any struggle when he caught her. What Koo did was to lure her under a car. It's easier to catch them once they are under a car as they would only be able to crawl. Then, you grab...

Ah Fatt helped pick up the 6 cats (5 females and 1 male, all spayed-neutered, but this includes 2 previously-spayed females whose ears have now been notched) and sent them back to the market at 8pm this evening.We met him there. Here are four of them. Another two. This little boy is Ah Fatt's youngest son. He's learning the ropes from his dad, obviously. Look at that adorable little kitten. He's come to greet his friends again. Deciding where to put w...

Bushytail Is Doing Well (and So Is Sudhamma!)
15th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Updates on Bushytail by Sudhamma:She ate fish and dry food. She can walk but I don't let her walk so much. Still keep in cage. Already taken antibiotics. Done warm compression, applied Flavin on her leg and changed her pad. The stomach wound looks dried up. She did not make a noise; she is easy to deal with. I can see that she is recovering fast. She is a very strong cat.Oh yes, she certainly is. She probably didn't know how severe her case w...

Help Needed Urgently For Injured Puppy
15th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Lim Mei Leng just called requesting urgent help to catch an injured puppy in Puchong. She spotted the puppy and it has a badly injured leg, but being a stray, the puppy is very hard to catch. Mei Leng requested help from two men nearby who were watching, but they did not want to help.If you can help in any way, especially if you are a dog-rescuer, please contact Mei Leng directly on 012-9761958.Mei Leng is worried as the injury (on the paw) looks really bad. It appears like it'...

The Sunny Kittens
15th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, I gave the Sunny Kittens a pedicure (had their nails trimmed at the tip). It was very easy with Rex and Fox, but with Honeybear, it was quite a struggle!Honeybear is turning out to be the most mischievous of the three. But he is absolutely adorable, as are Rex and Fox.They are still the most obedient kittens I've ever fostered. They don't make a noise when I'm not around and would be happily playing or sleeping in their room....until I get home. And even when I do, they don't scratch ...

Lilac, To Be Discharged
14th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
The vet had been so busy the past few days, he still had not prepared Lilac's bill during the few times I had gone to the clinic. He finally did today, and we've now paid for it. The bill came up to a whopping figure, and after subtracting the deposit the owner had left there (supposedly for euthanasia as they said they could not afford the surgery fee), it was still quite a sum. Lilac had also been boarded for so long now, and all this costs money. Lilac's case is on...

The Return Of The First Batch Of The Market CNRM Cats
14th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
I went to check on the other seven cats at our other clinic this evening. The five females and one male have been spayed-neutered. The one I'm touching here is the male - the only thorn among the roses in this batch. He's so friendly and has totally recovered from the anaethesia. One of these females also have already been previously-spayed. The vet drew a picture to show me how her ear had been tipped ever so slightly. It wasn't obvious whether it was a delib...

SS15 Market CNRM (updates - 3 Already Spayed)
14th Jun 2011, by AnimalCare
One of our vets just called me - this is from the clinic where we had sent 7 of the market cats. The black-and-white one (the one who was looking really sad, remember?) has bad flu, so she could not be spayed. She is now under treatment. Of the remaining six, five are females and one is male. Amongst the females, TWO have already been previously spayed. Again??Unfortunately, the vet had already opened them up to look for the uterus, so they would need to recover fro...

Rex has always been the first to learn anything new and achieve a milestone.He was the first to use the litter-box, the first to eat kibbles....And as of yesterday, he did not want to drink milk from the bottle anymore.

Soon, Fox and Honeybear come to join him. Yucks...Fox decides she pref...
