2nd Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/07/27/roo-and-n adia-an-update-from-hamida-alonto/
Remember Roo, the little kitten whom Hamida Alonto picked up, sent to the shelter and was told Roo would be put down? Hamida brought Roo back the next day, sent her to the vet and put her up on PetFinder.my for adoption. Roo got adopted by Nadia, who, despite knowing that Roo did not have a “perfect” leg, still adopted her!
Hamida wrote this:
We should thank you. I’m sure I am not the only one wh...

The Patchwork Blankets – The Story Continues
2nd Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
We wish to thank everyone who has written in to order the patchwork blankets. However, it has come to our attention now that many may not have read the second post about the blankets (or the many comments in the very first post) and are under the impression that the blankets are still priced at RM50 per piece.
As per suggested by practically every reader who commented, such handmade patchwork blankets are priced much, much higher than RM50 on the retail market. A reader suggested that we do an ...

Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2013/08/01/medical-subsidy -for-mitz-pots-now-rip-rolida-intan-shahars/
The encounter was short, but the sweet memory will linger on…
Mitz Pots was a mother-cat rescued by Intan Shahar, while she (Mitz Pots) was still nursing her 4 kittens. However, Mitz Pots developed seizures and despite the vet’s best efforts, there was no hope of recovery. Intan brought Mitz Pots back home to be comfortable for her last days. Her 4 kittens have now been adopted to lov...

EXTREME CHIMP RESCUE LEADS TO PLANET-WIDE MISSION!
http://animalrescuechase.com/donation/chi mps-in-congo.html
Eighteen years ago, I was working at an international animal rescue charity in Boston and was involved in a campaign to rescue captive chimpanzees in the African rainforest. Mokolo was the first of them. As a baby he'd been sold to a German couple who adored him and let him eat at the breakfast table. But when they left Africa, they gave him away and his growing size meant growing dang...

Life Is Oh-So Comfortable…with Patchwork Blankets!
1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
Ever since I placed the folded patchwork blanket on my desk for the purpose of photograph-taking, I never quite had a chance to remove it because at any one time, a cat would be on it!
Meanwhile, the total number of orders for the patchwork blankets is now six. My mum is really excited about it as she can put her creativity to work again!
Peace to all.
Goodnight!

Willy’s Ear-Notch Is Healing
1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
The ear-notch is nice and dry now.
I think Willy’s rate of healing is just slower than the average cat. I’m still giving him Vetri DMG.
Letting him get used to eating with Heidi.
Heidi ate kibbles again today. Sometimes she forgets…shh.
But the moment Heidi growled, Willy fled!

Bunny’s Mischievous Water-Bowl Game
1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
For two days in a row now, I’ve caught Bunny red-handed toppling the water-bowl.
Not just any water-bowl, mind you.
It’s the stainless steel water-bowl which comes in a holder, hooked onto the side of Pole’s condo.
I didn’t manage to take photos of how he unhooked the water-bowl as I’m still not very good with my phone camera, so I missed all those shots.
But here are some after he had unhooked the water-bowl.
The aim of the game is to unhook it, that’s it.
A...

Heidi And Mr Zurik’s Spots
1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
This is Heidi’s favourite spot nowadays. It’s so comfortable, it’s almost like a hammock of sorts for her.
And this is Mr Zurik’s spot???
Is this for real?
Mr Zurik is in the cage with the door wide open?
Yes, it’s for real.
He seems to know the cage is his canteen and he is quite comfortable sitting there after eating. Isn’t that cute?
He comes out now…
Oh oh…
He came to “cari pasal” this afternoon.
I think maybe it was...
