1st Mar 2012, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
Last month MDDB member Christine Lai had the shock of her life when she spotted a kitten with its rectum hyanging out. The kitten was rushed to our panel clinic and a surgery carried out to reinsert the prolapssed rectum. The plucky cat survived the surgery and was doing very well but died a few days ago. We are saddened with what had transpired.

Grandpa Pinky Is Happy Now
1st Mar 2012, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
When the staff of a shelter were summoned to take Grandpa Pinky away from the five foot way, which had become his home, they immediately knew that he had little chance of survival if taken in. They also felt a strong sense of pity for the old poodle cross, that must have seen some very good times during its prime. They called us and we said we would take responsibility for Grandpa Pinky. He was immediately sent to one of our panel clinics where he was examined. The vet found that he was b...

A Word From Narelle…
1st Mar 2012, by Langkawi Animal Shelter & Sanctuary Foundation
Well, we tried, but no way could we beat a competitor that put on 3,500 votes in three days… We voted in what we believe was the good old fashioned way and in the spirit of the competition. The team around LASSie were superb. Jerome our volunteer worked tirelessly updating constantly Facebook, Twitter and blogs and even got us on YouTube! Alison and all Bon Ton and LASSie staff worked hard at it daily. Robert even took the computer round to each table to gather votes in ChinaHouse, Penang. O...

About Pedigree Dogs And What Wrongful Breeding Does
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Su Ann Quah shared these:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhXHFOrBbEc
http://youtu.be/_kYDRjPqBgM
If you are an owner of a pedigree, you are strongly encouraged to view these two videos.
If you are intending to purchase a pedigree, please watch it, too.
If you don’t mind a mixed breed or a local dog, please adopt one from the shelter or the many adoption drives for rescued dogs.
Coincidentally, I just heard a most disturbing story. Apparently, there is an animal lover who has been shelteri...

Daisy Duck Attacking Dewey The Librarian!
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Just weeks ago, Daisy, Dewey and Thor were three of four siblings left outside a vet’s clinic. Someone spotted them and asked for help. We blogged and our reader responded the next day (by then one of the siblings had died) and took them over. Even then, Daisy was in really, really bad shape and we all prayed VERY hard she would survive.
It had not been an easy task, literally bringing them back from the brink of death, but our reader (who requested anonymity) did a job only angels do R...

More On Being A “rescuer”
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Here is another sharing from one of our readers, as a response to my post: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/29/the-vari ous-types-of-rescuers/
I have received emails several times from one of the person who appealed for help in rescuing strays around CBJ. When i mentioned I am an individual just like him and i can only offer to help to catch but not to foster or adopt as I too have a few at home relying on me financially as as well other aspects). All I get was a rude reply. There’s anothe...

Help Needed To Catch And Rehome Two Stray Dogs (Hanie Razaif’s)
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Hanie Razaif wrote to me on 23rd Feb, with a huge problem – some stray dogs on her street were (still are) attacking her cats, resulting in the death of a few of her cats. These dogs were also attacking the children and joggers. Hanie does not want to call the council, knowing the fate of the dogs, but she is at her wit’s end, trying to find solution.
If you have any idea to help, please contact Hanie at kristalchampagne@gmail.com.
Here is her dilemma:

The Various Types Of “rescuers”
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Here is a sharing from one of our readers who would rather remain anonymous. On her own, she donates a sum of money to her neighbourhood vet, to be used, at the vet’s discretion, for genuinely needy cases.
Dear Dr. Chan,
I am compel to share with you some of my own inside scoop of the rescuers after reading your blog and your venting.
Honestly, I do not have the energy and the strength to do what you do; that is why I admire what you do through AnimalCare.org.
Yes, there are many categorie...

On My Way Home Today…
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
As I was about to turn into the guardhouse, I saw this…
It’s a Golden Retriever and what appears to be a terrier or shitzu (sorry, I’m hopeless at identifying purebreds) going for a stroll, but the small fellow is in the middle of the road, nonchalant about the possible dangers.
I slowed down, and tailed them from a distance, to ensure they were safe.
The retriever sort of “guided” the small one to cross the road and the two went on happily on their stroll.
Th...

When Diva Was Here…
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
For the last two days…
…while Diva was here,
My two youngest cats were clearly jealous.
Tabs hissed.
Indy took voluntary exile and sought asylum….behind Pole’s condo.
Can you spot him?
There….
And that night, he refused to come into the room. He spent the night on the chair at the Clubhouse, to be as far away as possible from the rest….as a mark of protest!
Luckily our place is now escape-proof, otherwise, Indy might have run away from home agai...

Diva, At Mary’s House
29th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Here are some updates on Diva, at Mary’s house:
Hi KY
Diva settled well in my house yesterday. She sleep throughout the car ride (must be tired after exploring your house the whole day) and well behaved when I introduced her to Uncle Tigger and Aunty Winnie, but the two hissed at her. Both, Tigger and Winnie went on hunger strike and you can see in one of the pic, Winnie tucked herself in the bathroom sink ha ha ha.
She spent few hours exploring the entire house after ‘checked-in&#...
