Pick up after your dogs! Let’s all do our part, as considerate dog owners, to make the environment clean and free from dog poop.
Responsible pet ownership means more than just walking one’s dogs daily (in the early mornings or late evenings, when the temperature is more favourable). Owners should always clean up after their pets, disposing of faeces in a sanitary manner, and dispensing water to wash away urine on concrete surfaces in community spaces.
Owners should always have ready plas...

Why are sun bears important? Fact #2.
Since termites are their primary source of food, they keep termite populations low. This in turn allows our tropical tree species to continue growing and thriving.

A bus driver in Bogotá, Colombia, did just that when he stopped his bus to pick up a dog that had been run over by another vehicle. He transported the pet to the nearest vet clinic and his actions saved the dog’s life.
It was nighttime when the SITP bus driver noticed the injured pet in the middle of the road along his route. Without hesitatin...

On Daffodil’s Trail
2nd Aug 2015, by AnimalCare
As you know, Daffodil is completely at home now, after straying the streets for more than 10 years before we moved into this neighbourhood in 2011.
Rosie was the first to invite herself into our compound. This was followed by her brother, Ginger, who came in to ask for help – he had been bitten by Mr Quack and the sore was turning gangrenous. So, Ginger came to the patio and sat inside the cage. How smart is that, right?
So I took Ginger to the vet and he had to be caged and on antibiotic...

Love for animals is nothing to sneeze at, either. If you think animals are too wonderful to be eaten, surf over to http://KindMeal.my and see the latest promotions on healthful, meat-free ...
