A Typical After-Dinner Sojourn 17th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
This is a typical scene you’d see after dinner every night…leading the way to the Stargate would be Cleo, followed by Bunny and Cow.
Pole had been REALLY well-behaved all afternoon. I let her out after I came back from work until dinnertime. She made no attempts to escape. Not even once. Why, she just napped on the catshelf, very contentedly. I wonder if I may assume that she won’t be making another escape attempt? Guess not. The contractor did not come again….

Sunshine’s Rehab 17th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From my friend who is fostering Sunshine:
I managed to get a urine sample from Sunshine last Wed and quickly rushed it to the clinic as I’ve been concerned over her peeing pattern. They found that her pee was very alkaline with PH 9 and Specific Gravity 1.018 and suggested that I bring her in for a blood test. So I dashed back home and packed Sunshine into the car and back to the clinic. Her blood test results came back pretty good so we know that her organs are not affected by wha...

Updates On 17th Jan 2012 17th Jan 2012, by SPCA Singapore
There has been a lot of discussion out there about people planning to get a Chinchilla ( aka Dragon Cat in the Chinese Language) as a pet to usher in the new year. Please think again. These gentle and fragile creatures require specialist care and can live till about 15 years of age, long after the lunar year is over. Please do not get one unless you are prepared to care for it for the rest of its life.

Liew, A New Rescuer Going Strong 17th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/12/28/a-new-cnr m-er-in-the-making/
Liew wrote to me sometime last month, asking advice on what to do with some stray cats in his office area. We got talking about trapping, spaying-neutering and Liew was going to borrow one of our traps.
He finally decided he’d purchase one and I referred him to our supplier.
With that trap, Liew managed to catch the entire family! He’s now thinking of becoming a longer-term rescuer, and doing it in his housing est...

Cleo, Cleo, Quite Contrary, How Does Your Garden Grow? 17th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Remember this little poem?
Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
How does your garden grow?
With silver bells and cockle shells,
And pretty maids all in a row.
Lookie here…
A little cutesy kitty amongst the crossandras.
Cleo, Cleo, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?
We had these pebbles to replace the grass as this patch is just too soggy.
Double purpose here – to address the sogginess and to prevent any cat (namely, Pole) from getting a firm foothold to jump!

Yianni, The Nile Crocodile Signals: I’m Still Alive. 15th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Here’s a very touching story about how an abandoned and neglected crocodile now leads a happier life because a human understood its message to her:
http://www.care2.com/causes/nile-crocodile-si gnals-rescuer-im-still-alive.html
It’s so true that we sometimes judge an animal by its looks.
Here’s an excerpt:
Humans have a misconception about the psyche of crocs and imbue them with villainous qualities because of their design as powerful predators. But the truth is that croco...

A Probable “Poleway” To Freedom (no Escape Today) 15th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I figured this was probably how Pole escaped yesterday. She has “demonstrated” it to me twice so far.
From the wooden shelf, she gets onto the clothes line.
She has no problems at all walking on the clothes line.
From the clothes lines, I figured she can hop onto the water pipe and from there, onto the gutter and thereon, onto the roof….to freedom! But it would involved some acrobatic contortion on her part which I don’t doubt she has.
She tries but gives up. Or...

Updates On 15th Jan 2012 15th Jan 2012, by SPCA Sarawak
Due to an increased grant from the town councils, we can afford to waive the adoption fees for adult dogs and cats until the 15th of April and we'd also like to help those who have the heart but not the funds to own a pet so do spread the news that there will be NO adoption fees charged for adult (local) dogs and cats until the 15th of April.
