Fosterer Needed For Kucing (Kamaruzaman’s)
26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Updates from Dr Dev:
Hi Dr Chan,
Attached is the latest pic of Kucing. He needs to be handfed. He is otherwise ok but still hasnt gone to toilet or eating by himself. Very accepting of food given to him though up to a certain point. Bill so far RM951. He needs fostering but the guy who brought him in says no money to pay for his tin food and also no cage to keep and also cannot look after as he himself has a kid. So looks like I have to take care of him unless a kind fosterer can do that.
Kind R...

New Claim Forms
26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Today, we’ve had three cases where applicants filled up our forms wrongly again, claiming for 100% subsidy for medical treatment instead of the agreed 50%. In all three cases, this is the second time it has happened.Despite my repeated explanation that our subsidy is only 50%, applicants still fill up 100%. I don’t understand why.
This makes our work very hard because every claim form is audited.
In view of this, we have revised our forms.
To all applicants – kindly download ou...

26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
We have fully sponsored the neutering of 2 male cats, brought in by Maslinda Abd Talib. The rates at this vet is equivalent to our subsidy rates.
While at the vet’s (photos courtesy of Koo):
The neutering could not be done on the same day as there were many emergencies at the vet, so it was postponed to the next day.
The cats have been neutered and have returned home now. All is well, as can be seen from the photos below, sent by Maslinda.

Happy Tails From SPCA!
26th Apr 2012, by SPCA Selangor
APRIL 2012 - "Hello SPCA! This is Sasa, the adorable cow-coloured dog that we've adopted from SPCA Ampang last year, on the 14th of April. So, today's her first unofficial birthday! Sasa was a victim of animal cruelty as some heartless person scalded her with hot water when she was only a puppy. A Malay man with a heart of gold brought her to the SPCA when he discovered the wounded puppy. Sasa survived the ordeal but now bears a huge scar on her back. We noticed her at the SPCA when we saw her s...

Can We Neuter Our Way Out Of Killing?
26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Huey shared this: http://www.nathanwinograd.com/?p=9022
I think it’s really, really good food for thought.
The gist of it is that the author questions if neutering is THE best way to control overpopulation and he thinks it is NOT.
He thinks it should start with having no-kill shelters.
There must be no-kill shelters first, and then, there has to be neutering. The two must co-exist.
I must say I totally and absolutely agree. And that is why, as hard as it is sometimes (in difficult cases...

Hi Dr.Chan,
This female dog was seen wandering around the area near Menjalara park
for about 3 weeks already. I initially thought she belongs to one of
the shop owners. But everytime I go there to feed the strays, she
would seem very hungry and so I gave her food as well. I asked around
about this dog and no one seems to know who th...

Good morning KY!
Since you’ve been busy taking care and worrying about Indy, I’m thinking maybe you’ll like to blog my story about trying out World’s Best Cat Litter.
I’ve read about World’s Best Cat Litter (WBCL) for many years but never managed to get a pack until yesterday afternoon. It claims to be totally safe for pets, people and the environment. It’s flushable and se...

Indy Eats On His Own!
26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Last night was, thankfully, uneventful, so Indy and I slept through the night.
This morning, I awoke early as I had made a fresh batch of homecooked food late last night and I was going to blend it all this morning as it was too hot last night. It was sealed tightly in the pressure cooker, so no worries about bacteria contamination there.
I got everything blended while everyone else watched from the grille.
I dished out the food to the 6 of them plus Bobby, and was going to feed Indy.
But he dec...

Spaying Subsidy For A Female Cat (Hew Sook Yean’s)
26th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Ever since implementing our subsidy scheme so that we can reach out to rescuers all over the country (we did away with panel vets), our former panel vets have been given our subsidy forms so that they can recommend needy rescuers to apply for our subsidy.
One of our former panel vets have been recommending many rescuers to our fund, which is a good thing, especially when it is through recommendation of the vet. At least we know the vet thinks the rescuer needs the subsidy, ie. a first round of &...

Methycobal For Indy
25th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
The vet told me yesterday that between Neurobion and Methycobal, the latter is more potent since it has B12. So, this evening, I went to check at the local pharmacy and the pharmacist also recommended Methycobal for nerve ailment.
Methycobal is very much smaller in size compared with Neurobion, hence, much easier to feed. The pharmacist gave me a discount and it is only RM7.50 for 10 tablets. He said normally, for nerve repair, it is recommended to take for 2 months in humans, but for animals, ...

The Issue
25th Apr 2012, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Did you know that there is now a ban in place on animal testing for cosmetics and their ingredients in the European Union, as well as on the sale of some cosmetics that have been tested on animals elsewhere in the world?
Croatia and Norway have followed suit by banning animal tests for cosmetics and ingredients, and in 2015 Israel will also implement a ban.
However, there are no restrictions in other parts of the world, including the U.S. and Asia.
