Mind Over Matter…sometimes (the Story Of My Thyroid Cyst)
16th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
I’ll like to digress again and share a little personal experience which I hope may be beneficial to some of our readers.
In 2015, I had a sudden craving for flavoured seaweed and over a period of a few days, consumed a bit too much. One afternoon, as I was eating it, I felt a lump growing in my neck. It swelled up and became painful.
Of course I was worried. And the swelling did not go down. It affected my swallowing, breathing and it even hurt when I talked.
So, after trying various DIY r...

Update- The Cat Died After A Few Hours Maybe More ..
16th Sep 2018, by Langkawi Animal Shelter & Sanctuary Foundation
Update- The cat died after a few hours (maybe more) of suffering. Please be a responsible owner.
.
I don't know what to say because I am so angry. Someone dumped him in front of our place, maybe last night or early this morning. Still breathing but not responding to anything. Might be because of virus. If it is virus, how dumb are this person to dump this boy at our place that's full with cats. Are you trying to kill our animals? I hope whoever you are, you have a safe journey back home after le...

The Pilling Sessions (Vincent And Pole)
16th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
Vincent is a darling today.
I started by wiping his head and mouth with a soft wet flannel cloth. He likes this.
There are three pills for this morning – the quartered Baytril, the Azodyl capsule and the B Complex. The syringe contains Vetri DMG (I’m using it to wash down the tablets, if necessary).
Re this B Complex, I don’t know if it was this tiny little yellow tablet (which only costs 10 sen) that gave Vincent a good appetite yesterday. Three days ago, he ate well, but tha...

The Staring Game (Vincent) And The Running Game (Pole)
16th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
This morning, Vincent played the staring game. He did not eat.
I’ve come to totally accept and embrace the fact that Vincent will have good days and bad days. So, it’s okay. I’m not going to beat myself up or think that I’m not doing my best because I know I am. Some things are just beyond our control.
Will see how the day progresses later on…
Last night, in desperation, I contacted two vets to ask why the 2-week medication is necessary, why can’t we just do...

As we celebrate a “new” Malaysia, under a new government which promises Harapan Baru to Rakyat Malaysia, AnimalCare only has one Harapan and one request:
Please, please, please spare the street animals from capture. Let the feeders get them neutered and please allow them to live on.
Just one request.
Boleh, tak?

Nightmare On Pole Street
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
Right now, my back is full of Pole-scratch marks and I’m in pain.
It’s been a nightmare.
After that mouth-pawing episode, I waited a few hours before offering Pole some food. She could not bring herself to eat so I left her alone.
Then, just now, at 8.00pm, we came home from taiji and Pole seemed interested in food. She jumped up onto the pantry and waited…
So I gave her some AD – no. Cubgrub – no. These are the only foods she would eat. I’ve tried liquid (mo...

Pole Eats But…
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
I decided it would be wiser to let Pole settle down properly and completely after a few traumatic experiences today – the trip to the clinic, our attempt to spray the Biosilver (which failed miserably) and our next attempt to squirt the Biosilver using the syringe (which failed). We also attempted to trim her nails (only managed to trim 2 nails after which she turned violent).
By 4pm, I decided to offer some food. I thought liquid food might be good, so I gave her some Ciao treats. U...

Pole Has Bad Teeth And Gingivitis
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
Ming-Yi and I took Pole to the vet’s today.
Waiting for our turn.
I already informed the vet that Pole is extremely nervous and “jumpy” so he was prepared.
The only times Pole had ever been to the vet’s was for her kitten vaccinations and spaying. There was also one other time when I mistakenly thought she had urination problem (blocked bladder), so I rushed her to the clinic. That visit was a total disaster as Pole was too “jumpy” until she was literally jum...

Vincent Eats An A+ Lunch!
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
Today, luckily for me, Ming-Yi came, so she was able to help me with Vincent, Pole and Ginger.
For some unknown reason, Vincent was exceptionally well-behaved today. Together, we managed to drop saline into his nostrils and clean them. He seemed to enjoy it too. We also managed to pill him without much struggle, except for the Azodyl (capsule).

Vincent finished 5/6 of this container of raw meat!

Indy In Action
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
I’ve been waiting to capture Indy in action but always keep missing it.
Here’s a video of the “second half”:
He focuses, then makes a tall leap with a single bound onto the bar of the grille, then he heaves himself up (using mostly upper body strength) and the rest…you can see in the video.

Stretch Therapy
15th Sep 2018, by AnimalCare
Allow me to digress a little this morning and share something which I think might be beneficial to some of our readers.
As animal caregivers, we perform so many chores in a day, taking care of our pets, rescues and more so, those who are ill. And often, this requires us contorting our body into various positions, which sometimes, can be detrimental to our wellbeing in the long run.
Since March this year, I suddenly developed very severe lower back pain. On hindsight now, I think that it is a cum...
