The Press Conference (Cruelty At The Boarding House) 5th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I've often avoided these publicity functions unless I can contribute in some useful ways, so when Wani and KTAJ invited me to be present for the press conference this evening, I asked in what way my presence would be useful. Wani said it was to show support and solidarity of the many animal welfare NGOs. Alright, for that purpose, I'll go.The reporters were there. It was a full hall.Many of the pet-owners whose pets had been victims of this scam were present. Others were concerne...

Alarie wrote to me a few days ago, requesting help for a female cat and her new kittens (3 months old). The cat is in the box. SO obedient? Oh wow...that's nice.Alarie has been looking after her for more than 3 months now. She came to Alarie's house when she was pregnant and has since delivered and finished breastfeeding her babies. Where are the kittens, I asked? I had thought we would get the kittens dewormed. Well, what do you know? Alarie said our other panel vet offered to ...

Back To Spaying-Neutering Work 5th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Today we had two cats in for spaying.One was Mama-X from Jessy Lian. Mama-X is estimated to be at least 11 years old and was still "actively" giving birth. Mama was spayed today, with no mishaps (thank heavens!). She was put on drips throughout the surgery and during recuperation. The vets said she appeared to be a strong and healthy cat. Here's Mama-X after surgery, still on drips to be on the safe side.Jessy Lian stayed throughout the surgery to wait for Mama-X. Julie Pek dropped in and s...

A Note To All 5th Sep 2011, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Resorts World has blocked quite a number of us from their FB page. When you post comments on their FB page now, only your FB friends can see your comments, the other 147,000 RWS FB fans cannot see your comments. The questions really are: Does Resorts World have something to hide?, Why won't they let their FB fans see our views and concerns?
Please help to post comments on their recent posting.

Cruelty At Boarding House - Photo Update Of The "Dying" Cat 5th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Maslinda sent this photo, taken when she visited the three cats boarded at the vet in PJ today.The cat is at least sitting up and that is a good sign.You'd see that the body has been shaven - three cats were brought in in this condition yesterday. I checked with a vet and she suggested that perhaps the cats were so hungry (or maybe even traumatised), they bit off their own fur, or each other's fur. This seems plausible as only the hair on the torso appears to have been bitten off. It ...

The Anti-Pitbull Breedist Legislation 4th Sep 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
Firstly, I would like to pay my deepest condolences to the Victorian family that witnessed their toddler attacked and killed by their neighbor’s pit bull. I totally empathize with the mourning of this Victorian family and definitely support stricter laws being enforced by the government. These laws should include harsher penalties for the owners of un-contained aggressive dogs to prevent any accidental injury or death.
Often the pet is euthanized after it has severely i...

Cruelty At Its Worst (more Updates At 9.30pm) 4th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
The KTAJ rescuers arrived with the cat. I was already there waiting for our vet, who was coming all the way from Kajang. It so happened our vet also had to attend to some dogs at the clinic, so we were lucky. This cat did not look so bad, but according to the rescuers, he looked really sick while at the boarding house. Yes, it is always best not to take chances with animals. His bottom half is filthy - he must have been sitting in pee and poo for a week, and had been without food...

Updates On 4th Sep 2011 4th Sep 2011, by Animal Concerns Research & Education Society (ACRES)
Through our concerted effort to post comments on RWS FB page over the weekend, we have shown that they are not open to a dialogue about their plans to hold wild-caught dolphins captive. We have shown that they rather delete your comments or ignore them than to respond to your concerns. The questions now really are: Do you trust RWS? Do you trust a company that is not open to public feedback? Do you trust this for-profit company to look after the welfare of the remaining 25 wild-caught dolphins?

Cruelty At Its Worst (the Pet Boarding Case) 4th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
I contacted Wani over this case and Wani got the rescuers to send the sickly cats to the vet in PJ. So I drove down there to wait for them in case any downpayment was needed for these cats. The important thing is to get them treated first to save their lives. The next step would be to locate their owners to take them back.The cats soon arrived. There were six of them. These are the worst of the lot, I was told. This poor, poor cat was in very, very bad shape. She is all skin and bones...
