A Chat With A Former Breeder 20th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Remember I said I’d speak to a former breeder and find out things about “responsible breeding”? Well, I did, and here are some of the things he shared with me.
He was a dog-breeder many years back, and responsible breeding, to him, would mean taking very good care of his dogs, especially the mother-dog. The mother must have enough rest time, and he had only bred a few litters in all those years. He also only sold his puppies to responsible owners after careful vetting.
I asked ...

Now, Who Is Fighting? 20th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Talking about warring animals, I also have two in my home – Cow & Bunny, and no, they were not bred as fighting-cats, they are just extremely territorial and this seems to be the nature of cats, especially if we have many cats in a confined space.
Most of the time, there is peace in the house, unless I am at work, then I don’t know what goes on behind my back, but there has been no major injuries in these two so far.
But sometimes, when we introduce change into their space, we in...

An Article On Pitbulls And Reflections On Breeding Animals 20th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Mrs Wong shared this: http://news.discovery.com/animals/pit-bulls -dangerous-120515.html#mkcpgn=emnws1
THE GIST
A Maryland court recently decided that pit bulls are “inherently dangerous.”
Animal experts and advocates disagree with the ruling.
The problem is complex, with some pit bulls bred specifically for fighting.
In short, here’s what I feel: Humans have no business breeding dogs to fight. That is just downright mean.
It all boils down to this: What makes some humans e...

Coping With Aging Pets 20th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Bobby will be 16 years old this October. That is pretty “senior” for a dog, so as with senior people, old age comes with all kinds of problems.
Sometime last year, Bobby was really going down. He had lost his appetite and had become extremely scrawny. Home-cooked food changed that and turned him around, so that problem is taken care of for now. He also started acupuncture and from weekly, it became fortnightly, and now, it’s just one session per month as maintenance.
Since he b...

Our Revised Multiple Fund Policy 19th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Each time some form of abuse or suspected abuse happens, it is a red alert for us to revamp the way we do things so as to prevent a repeat of such a case. As explained in the earlier post, we owe this to our donors and also to preserve the credibility of animal charity.
The last time we did a major revamp was when a certain rescuer created a huge misunderstanding between a vet in USJ and us by removing a kitten that was being treated there (while the vet was not looking) and bringing it to to ou...

Zenning Up Bunny’s Place 19th May 2012, by AnimalCare
I love Zen spaces.
It has lots of breathing space.
And it only has “enough” and nothing more.
Barest minimum.
I am a confirmed minimalist at heart and in practice.
So, this morning, I had some time-off and I decided to Zen up Bunny’s Place a bit.
Paid a visit to the local departmental store and got two storage boxes to address a spraying problem and create more space in Bunny’s Place.
This poor tree-trunk bench’s leg has been the target of Cow and Bunny’s spr...

Do You Want To Make History? 19th May 2012, by AnimalCare
I received this youtube link from the Singapore Vegetarian Society.
I assure you there are NO ghastly scenes at all – please trust me on this.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6ehL18rqlM&a mp;feature=youtu.be
Is it possible that one day the whole world will be vegetarian? Many doubt so, but then again, 50 years ago, did the Americans think they would ever have a Black president?
Please watch the video, and let’s decide if you’d like to make a difference.
Yes, it’s Saturda...

What Is “meezer-Ing”, And The Tale Of The Malaysian Cat Now Living In Austria! 19th May 2012, by AnimalCare
Dr Susanna was here a few days ago and I told her all about Baggy’s shrieking when confronted by Cow.
Dr S took one look at Baggy (who was also playing the perfect host, like Tabs, examining all of Dr S’s things) and said, “Of course she would. She’s part Siamese. They’re all drama queens!”
Oh, so Baggy is part Siamese?
I must confess I know absolutely NOTHING about breeds because it doesn’t matter to me, but it pays to know because certain breeds have s...
