1st Dec 2011, by AnimalCare
From Dr Veeranoot Nissapatorn, medical doctor/lecturer/cat-rescuer from Thailand who now lives here:

From Pauline Leong (pauline.leong@gmail.com or 012-3067411):

Bunny Goes To The Vet’s
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
So this afternoon, it was Bunny’s turn to go to the vet’s for his vaccination.
Rather than me talk, I’ll let Bunny tell his story…first-hand.
So there I was, resting comfortably on their clean clothes, minding my own business, when suddenly….Mum patted me on the head, said something (she always thinks I understand, but how on earth can I possibly understand, right?), and then, she carried me and stuffed me into the carrier!!
Hey, what’s going on and where am ...

No More Kitty-2
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Today, the vet assistant told me that Kitty-2 did not make it. They all passed away one by one and even the vet was completely baffled and could not figure out what was wrong with them. They just kept having diarrhoea off and on.
That’s how dangerous diarrhoea is…and that is why we always recommend deworming as soon as the vet thinks it should be done. Deworming should be done by a vet, not by us, as it may be difficult for us to tell when the animal is ready to be dewormed.
May Kitt...

Sugar Is Doing Well (Eling Chan’s)
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I met Eling at the vet’s today. Sugar is doing well and should be able to go home tomorrow evening. However, Eling has to go to work, so she will board Sugar until Monday (at her own cost as we do not cover extended boarding) and take her back then.
Eling says she was able to pat Sugar, too.
The vet assistant told us that Sugar is able to walk around already. Her urination and defecation is normal.

A “Blessing” On Wheels (must Read!)
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
When I was first faced with having to take care of and make the necessary arrangements for Sunshine Courage, I called a few friends for advice and moral support. As you know, we do not “take in” any animal; we can only work with rescuers by providing the medical aid and the animal is then returned to the rescuer.
But Sunshine Courage was discovered by a Malay lady, and she could not take her in. And to make matters worse, Sunshine was paralysed. So, I had to do the needful. I had no ...

Sweetie Is Adopted!! (Linda Suhaili’s)
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/11/24/photo-upd ates-of-sweetie-from-ipoh-linda-suhailis/
From Linda:
Hi Dr Chan,
Sweetie has been adopted yesterday. One of the vet’s assistant apparently fell in love with her and asked to keep her when I brought Sweetie in for check up. She seemed perfect for her as she was the one caring for Sweetie at the clinic anyhow. Btw, the bleeding in her pee was due to UTI and she is much better after taking the prescribed meds.
So, yesterday evening, we sent...

Did You Know Lantana Is A Toxic Plant?
30th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I’m in the midst of getting my garden landscaped before moving and a friend recommended a nursery. For the cat-space at the back of the house, I’ve consulted vets, shelter friends and other friends who are more experienced to suggest what I should do.
One of the things suggested was to have flowering plants that would attract insects and butterflies so that the cats would have something interesting to look at.
The nursery suggested Lantana, which is a shrub with beautiful tiny flower...

A Female Cat Spayed (Prema’s)
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Prema contacted me last week to request help to get a female cat spayed.
The procedure will be done today, at our panel vet, under our sponsorship.
This is the cat.
Updates at 6.30pm – the cat has been spayed. I’ve just checked in on her at the vet’s.
Waking up from the anaesthesia.
Apparently, all her kittens died after her delivery (poor thing) and she still has a lot of milk, actually. The vet assistant wanted to “borrow” the cat for a month to feed two orphane...

Sunshine And Her Bone
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
This morning, at 6.30am, I drove down to pass the Advocate to my friend for Sunshine.
It was too early, so I did not want to disturb them. Just left it in the postbox.
My friend sent these photos of Sunshine and her favourite toy, a bone.
Yum, yum…
Aww….shh….(she’s asleep).
Get up…start chewing again!

Blacky Is Adopted (Jessy Lian’s)
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
From Jessy:
Good news Dr.Chan, Blacky has been adopted! I went to visit her as usual around 5.30pm. The pet shop owner happily informed me that a kind couple & their son had adopted Blacky and they left just 5 min ago. I wish I was there in time to talk to them & hopefully can get their contacts, so that I could pay Blacky a visit some day. According to the pet shop owner, Blacky’s new adopter was a regular at her shop & they wanted to look for a companion for their cat.

I Only Managed To Get Cow….
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Cow has been very obedient lately, and it was no problem at all plonking him into the carrier. In fact, he even walked right in.
Bunny was sitting on the pillar at Mac’s place, but the back door was jammed. Sigh… I kept calling him in, and he just looked at me and gave me that “knowing” look, as though saying, “Yes? You talking to me?”.
I gave up after trying on the door for 10 minutes as Cow was waiting inside the carrier.
Saved by a jammed door!
So, Cow and ...

Indy And Tiger Go For Their Vaccinations
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
After coming back from visiting Sugar and seeing that today the vet’s was not crowded, I thought I’d take Indy for his check-up. If you’ve been following Indy’s news, he is a suspect kidney problem cat because there was protein in his urine and he used to lick a lot of water from the running tap. However, his previous kidney readings (done in August) showed that everything was normal.
Indy was also due for his vaccination and Tiger (and Cow & Bunny) are already overdu...

IS THIS HUMANE?
29th Nov 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
First he says this is a humane method. When the going gets hot he says otherwise? So which is which?OPINION WANTED. This was a dog catching 'training exercise' between MBPJ and MPK. Dogs were caught to be brought to be euthanised. The picture you see is deemed as 'a humane way' of catching dogs. Do you all think what you see in the picture is humane? Please share - you response will be feedback for us. This 'training' escapade was organised by Petaling Jaya councilor Anthony Sivabalan Thana...

Sugar’s Amputation Went Well, But… (Eling Chan’s)
29th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Today is Sugar’s scheduled surgery and I’ve been calling the vet’s for updates. The surgery went well, and the vets are finishing the procedure now. The surgery lasted almost 2 hours because there was a bit of excessive bleeding but Sugar’s PCB level was good after the surgery.
However, an attempt to spay her revealed that she had already been previously spayed. This would mean either she was someone’s pet (abandoned, ran away, lost, etc) or her spaying was done b...
