Reggie The Bat in Ipoh
http://www.petfinder.my/pets/53090
Reggie is the Daredevil of the Canine World! She's retired now, and in search of a home which is blind-dog-proof. We suspect one of her parents may be a bat (or Batman), because she has inherited some awesome super powers.
Yes, Reggie is blind.. yet she has 2 huge, round, mesmerizing eyes.
And she navigates using her ultrasound super canine ability, plus an internal GPS and Doggy Maps system. Don't think you can keep your cover lo...

Perky Says “Gong Xi Fa Cai!” 26th Jan 2014, by AnimalCare
Perky was our Klang Pound rescue.
I named her Perky because I saw her the cheerful and determined spirit in her and indeed, she bounced back from several mishaps; one of which was when her stitches tore after being spayed and I was alone with her on the farm, miles from nowhere. I still remember that incident and how I pressed on her stitches to stop the bleeding. Later at the farm, she was identified as being too sickly, so we brought her back from the farm and by the time she reached the shelt...

The New Patio Alpha? 26th Jan 2014, by AnimalCare
As Mr Miyagi says, “Fighting not good. But if must fight, WIN.”
Timmy and Vincent are the patio alphas. Vincent keeps all newcomers at bay (he only failed with Mr Zurik and Heidi) while Timmy chases anyone who intrudes into his vegetable garden. Timmy is also a bully of sorts. But luckily, nobody bites or scratches. It’s just a lot of noise and the aggressor giving chase.
But lately, Ginger (yes, you read that right, mild-mannered sweet-faced Ginger) had been showing that he is...

Mr Zurik’s Eye Wound 26th Jan 2014, by AnimalCare
It was only yesterday morning that I detected Mr Zurik’s eye wound. He had been squinting for a few days and I’d washed his eye with salt water, but yesterday, a wound appeared.
The wound was quite deep and a bit of pus oozed from it when I pressed on it. Yes, the Russian allowed me to.
Being Saturday, my regular vet doesn’t work, so I thought I’d try to nurse the wound myself.
I washed it with saline, then applied iodine and the Wound Protector (“Happy Bum GelR...

Willy Must Have Gone “on Leave” Again 26th Jan 2014, by AnimalCare
Yesterday morning, Willy did not turn up for breakfast.
I sort of “knew” that he won’t be coming.
Somehow, you just “know”.
Willy has this habit of disappearing during festive seasons. He disappeared for 10 days during Hari Raya, but reappeared after that long break. I was worried sick that time until I realised perhaps he had a home and his owner had sent him for Hari Raya boarding.
But then, he disappeared for another holiday as well after that, and now, he has di...

A Quilt Cover And A Blankie For A Birthday Boy 26th Jan 2014, by AnimalCare
Not too long ago, a friend asked if my mum could help make a quilt cover for her and in return, she would give a generous donation to AnimalCare. She drew the design for us too. The quilt cover was meant for Chinese New Year.
Here it is:
Thank you very much for your generous donation for the animals!
And another friend asked if we could make a blankie for a birthday boy whose Japanese name is “dragon”.
So, I sewed this blanket, making it as boyish as possible. Stripes give it a mascu...

Sharing this Post Helps So Much!!!
The Harmony Fund is helping sponsor the feeding of 1,305 cats and dogs at the Shelter Kiev SOS in Ukraine - an extraordinary refuge with an incredible back-story.
In the early 90s, the shelter's founder Tamara Tarnawska gathered fellow journalists and, with the use of hidden cameras, they revealed a long-time practice rounding up stray dogs and cats to be killed for their fur at a local factory. After Tamara brought down a massive worldwide protest against ...

OWL FOUND IN VACANT BUILDING SOARS FREE!
Last week, a snowy owl was rescued after it became trapped inside a vacant building on India Street in Portland, Maine. Tom Gagne, an experienced falconer, rescued the owl from the third floor of the Grand Trunk Railroad building. After spending a few days convalescing at Avian Haven, this one was ready to fly free again and released over a nearby marsh. So thankful to all who cared for this beautiful creature.
