Plant Your Own Pesticide-Free Vegetables
8th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Whenever I give public talks on eating less meat (which also means eating more vegetables), the counter argument to this is always this: Eating more vegetables means supporting the use of pesticides which kills millions and zillions of insects, which are also living beings.
Then, I’d say, buy organic vegetables AND the counter argument to this would be:
1. How do you know it’s really organic?
2. What if they also use pesticides or they kill insects in other ways?
I have nothing to sa...

Can rabbits be litter trained? By nature, rabbits choose one or a few corners to deposit their urine and most of their poop (also known as pills). So it is possible to litter train your rabbit! Here are some tips for litter training your rabbit...
1. Sterilising your rabbit makes litter training easier.
2. Watch your rabbit closely when you let it out so you know where it does its business.
3. Get more than one litterbox when you first start litter training your rabbit. They don't have the ...

Sale Of Turtle Eggs Makes Mockery Of Conservation Efforts
8th Jul 2013, by Turtle Conservation Society of Malaysia
Date: 8th July 2013
By: Sean Augustin
Source: fz.com
BAGS containing turtle eggs, resembling oversized ping-pong balls, were displayed openly by hawkers at the Pasar Payang market, in Kuala Terengganu.
The ones caked with sand were local eggs, while the cleaner ones were apparently from Sabah, or so they say.
Buyers would have to take the makcik’s word for it and shell out more money for the eggs from Terengganu, which cost RM35 for a pack of 10. Eggs from Sabah are priced below RM30 for ...

Igor Brings Otto!
7th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
And while Boss was sulking, Igor and Otto had other plans.
Igor had brought Otto for dinner!
I spotted Tabs looking at two shrews and a yellow butterfly in the garden.
Igor?
Otto?
When hungry, eat.
When thirsty, drink.
When you sense danger, RUN!!
Life can be simple, if we make it so.

Mr Zurik Vs….who??
7th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Shortly after Igor was done with dinner and had left the pantry, I heard whining inside the house…
Mr Zurik had come into the kitchen and on hand to lodge the complaint is…Timmy!
Timmy was whining non-stop.
Vincent decided not to interfere.
Timmy managed to make enough noise to get Mr Zurik out of the house. I’m not sure but I think Timmy chased him out of the house as I heard the sound of chasing and banging on the door as I was preparing Mr Zurik’s food. By the time...

Igor Visits…for Lunch And Dinner!
7th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Two shrews have been visiting our pantry very often these days. It all depends on their moods and the time of the day, but sometimes Cleo, Tabs, Indy and Cow will chase them.
I am quite sure it’s Igor and Otto visiting…
During lunch time today, we had a visit from Igor, I think?
добрый день, Igor!
Then, at dinner time, he came again.
I heard the familiar clackity-clack sound of nibbling in the pantry.
Only Tabs was awake and watching…
After sometime, the clacki...

An Owner’s Reluctance To Have Her Female Dog Spayed
7th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
In the past few days, we have been communicating with a reader on the case of an owner who has not got her female dog spayed. The dog, who is allowed to roam, gave birth to her first litter, and the owner only kept one male from it. The rest of the puppies were “thrown away”. Then, the son mated with the mother and subsequently, the mother has given birth to three more litters of which ALL the puppies had been “thrown away”.
Our reader came across this case and have tried...
