Cat With Eye Injury, In Need Of An Adopter After Treatment (Koo Swee Por’s) 17th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Koo spotted a friendly cat with an eye injury at a mall in Shah Alam:
Hi Dr Chan,
Yesterday, I was in iCity for a meeting when I encountered a cat that need medical attention but need to consult you on your expectations, estimated medical cost and its future if rescued.
It is a young (to me), friendly and beautiful (to me) tabby cat with orange coat and white on its chest and paws. I only encountered it briefly. It was unusual because iCity is seemingly devoid of any strays and I understand th...

Four 2-months old puppies were dumped at Second Chance two days ago! The puppies were placed inside a box with a "SORRY" note. :( Although we understand that everyone has their own difficult circumstances, we hope that these kind of incidents do not happen. It is extremely unfair to the puppies. There were three male puppies and one female.

What It Entails To Foster A Special Needs Animal 16th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
I know many people are impressed with how Sunshine had miraculously recovered from being a paralysed dog to an almost good-as-new dog now save for the bit of knuckling of the hind paw. Sunshine’s recovery was “miraculous” and that is only because she had a very, very committed caregiver, Lydia, who was with her 24/7 (literally) for the first 10 weeks. The work needed was very heavy – turning her to prevent bedsores, coaxing her to calm down to be handled, massaging her,...

Nowadays, we often hear of kidney failure in pets, and some of these pets have been fed with the “best” foods available on the market. However, it is usually commercial foods, or processed foods.
Please let’s read the labels carefully, or do sufficient research on the companies that produce these foods.

Is Cesar Millan Going To Fix Your Dog? 16th Apr 2012, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
Today I would like to talk to you about Poppy, 2 year old Labrador with aggressive tendencies. She was booked in with me two weeks ago for a brief consultation to discuss her behavioural issues. The owner walked in the consultation looking quite unsettled. He handed me the behavioural questionnaire I requested his family to fill out and said:
‘After going through the questionnaire, I don’t think ‘Poppy’ has a behavioural issue?’
I instantly realised how tender the...

And….it’s Here!! The EQUATION! (the 2012 All-New AnimalCare Tshirt) 14th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
I had been waiting for the new tshirts to be ready…and finally, they arrived yesterday evening. The supplier had to do a stock-count so I could only collect them this morning.
But first, allow me to thank Kean-Joo for helping me source for the team of young artists, all from BrandCare. They submitted more than 20 designs and from there, we short-listed a few, and finally, I chose one of the simplest designs. I tweaked it a bit here and there, changed it a bit, and voila…here it is!

One Dog And 2 Cats Vaccinated (Bernice Chee’s) 14th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Bernice and Donovan will be migrating soon (*sniff*, there goes two of our trusty volunteers…). They have been feeding the stray community in their neighbourhood and now they have to make plans to rehome as many of them as they can before they leave the country.
I suggested they get the animals vaccinated first, for protection.
Today, we did two cats (already neutered) and one dog (also spayed). We’ve subsidised the cost of the vaccinations.
Mommy Dog, a terrier mix. Gave birth to...
