Ally, The Sleeping Beauty 2nd May 2012, by Second Chance
Ally was one of the 4 female pups rescued end of last year. Two of her siblings have since been adopted and she is still waiting for her turn to get a new home. She is about 1 year old now and that day in the shelter she gave us a scare. We thought there was something wrong with her when we saw her lying down in this unusual position. She must have heard our voices and opened her eyes, after that she went back to sleep, still in that awkward position. We had a good laugh! He...

H i Dr Chan,
Last Friday, a kitten was found in my car engine. I’m not sure if it
is a female or a male, but it should be approximately 1-2 months old.
Colour: Grey + Slight orangy & Black. (Sorry, I dont have a clear
photo of the kitten) The mother cat is nowhere to be found at that
moment & fearing for the little one’s safety, I took it home with me.
However, as I’m living with my parents & I already have 3 dogs at

Updates On 2nd May 2012 2nd May 2012, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
"Rodents? Leave them to us," said Munchkins, the reticulated python who was in the middle of digesting his lunch.
The town council called in their pest control who safely contained Munchkins and handed him over to us- along with his lunch- a huge rat who was regurgitated.
The eternally hungry rescue officers 'Ta Pao-ed' his lunch and delivered it after the python was released. Their appetite, sad to say, was 'released' too.

“Janganlah Menipu” 2nd May 2012, by AnimalCare
It has been brought to my attention that two rescuers (let’s call them No.1 and No.2) are planning to get someone else to put in some claims on behalf of them because they do not wish to reveal their names to us.
Hmm…but why? What is wrong with revealing their names? Unless they are running some clandestine operation which cannot see the light of day?
And do I know these two persons?
Well, I am, unfortunately, acquainted with No.1. She has claimed a number of cases from us previous...

Baggy Begins Her 3rd Day With My Cats 2nd May 2012, by AnimalCare
Last night, I let Baggy sleep in her Holey Box beside me as I slept on the bench in the room.
This morning, I found she had made herself a little sanctuary in the room, surrounded by two boxes. It was cute. Sorry my camera battery ran out on me, so no photo.
I thought I should take her out to the garden for a stretch…
Tabs wants to be friends.
Cleo is not antagonistic.
A little game of hide-and-seek, to break the ice?
The elders watch from a distance.

Sometimes We Need Closure 2nd May 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/03/18/lost-cat- please-help-to-look-out-for-it-jay-lams/
Jay wrote yesterday to say he has finally found out what happened to Ozee:
Found out from one of my neighbours. It’s most unfortunate that Ozee was run over by a motorcycle late one night about a month ago. Apparently the rider was trying to avoid a car, and so hit my cat. The neighbour came out because of the noise of the rider being thrown off his bike, and buried Ozee in his front garden. It e...

Dog Seller? 2nd May 2012, by AnimalCare
I received this a few days ago:
Message:
Greetings,
I am currently working at a pet store in KL. Recently our area is
being occupied by a stray female dog and her two pups. The two pups
are at the back of our store and the mother would go off (so far to
the front of the store)and come back to keep an eye on her babies.
Yesterday one of the pup fell into a deep drain and my colleague
rescued her. My boss is kind and allows us to feed these animals that
is as far as he will go. But my heart goes o...

Where Was The Cat During Those “lost” Hours? (a Sharing) 2nd May 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/04/24/this-is-a lmost-unbelievable/
In response to my post above on the case where a trainee vet opened up a male cat to be SPAYED without first checking if he was male or female just because the rescuer mistakenly thought and said the cat was female, and how the vet said, “Why did you tell me it was a female?” in defence, a reader shared her story below.
By the way the poor male cat is fine now. But we think this unfortunate mistake could have been...

Hi there Dr Chan. I am in great need of your help, advice & opinion
regarding the matter of a stray kitten that I’m currently fostering

is quite a long one…
It goes like this. The mama cat is a stray that frequently comes to my

so. When I first met her, she was already pregnant. Being a stray,

Baggy’s 2nd Day 1st May 2012, by AnimalCare
We’ll start off this post with a related Cleo story first….
Right after I wrote the previous post on Baggy, I had to get ready the house for the interview. I did a headcount and one cat was missing – Cleo!
I searched all over Bunny’s Place and really, she was gone….
I went out to the road, look into the drains, up the roofs, she was no where to be found.
This was really, really bad timing because the interviewers would be coming soon.
Then, I made another thorough s...

Lily, Kitten For Adoption (Tjong Yen Chian’s) 1st May 2012, by AnimalCare
From Yen Chian:
Hi Dr Chan,
Few days back, a family come over to see the kitten. They have just lost their cat a few days back and have adopted a new one and would love to add a new one. The kitten they just adopted was a male so I told them that they must spay etc. After I mention the adoption fee which is Rm 50. It include helping other stray, they immediately says that they doesn’t want the kitten. It make me feel upset but I guess that family cannot really take care of the cat well.

From Teresa:
Dear Kah Yein,
The first person who adopted Lotus, the 8-month German Shepherd whom I found tied to a pole at the children’s playground, returned him after a day. Said she is not ready to handle a high-energy dog like him. So I sent Lotus to the vet’s for neutering, vacc and deworm and a thorough check-up before rehoming him again. I’d like to appeal for a subsidy for Lotus...
