2nd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
We’ve been going in and out of the house a lot in the past week because there is just so much to do for the new house. But each time we go out, Tabs would be waiting to dash out of the door.
My husband devised a method to keep her occupied with a game so that we can sneak out…
Watch…
This is called “Find the Feather”.
Method: Drop feather through hold into tall box.
Here’s Tabs trying to retrieve the feather.
She uses her paws and claws.
Then, she use...

Getting Ready To Move
2nd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
It’s been a month since Bunny started behaving strangely, ie. looking not his usual self and sleeping only upstairs.
This morning, he came down for breakfast with Bobby. Bunny likes the home-cooked food, and for the past month, he has not asked for snacks in between. It does make me wonder if he’s trying to lose weight, as that’s what the vet said he must do. Even Dr Susanna said Bunny is obese and should lose weight lest he might become diabetic. Dr S also said by eating ho...

Can’t Please Everyone…
2nd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I know the New Year should not be a time for lamentation, but for me, every day (no, every moment), we make a fresh clean start and it is reality that every day, we will encounter problems.
And we attempt, with our best possible efforts, to SOLVE the problem. But some problems just cannot be solved. In such cases, we have to change how we look at the so-called “problem” so that it doesn’t become a problem anymore.
A few days ago, I was communicating with someone who asked for h...

The Doggies That We Lost
2nd Jan 2012, by Second Chance
Case Number 1A big Bull dog was dumped at our shelter by one irresponsible person who claimed he rescued him from the street. This poor dog was obviously malnourished , skinny with ribs protruding only. He ate lots and lots of kibbles when we first fed him and he drank lots of water too. We are not sure what the owner did to him, but he sure looked pitiful. We called Dr lee to come and check on his health condition, he was distemper negative. He stayed only a few days in our shelter , the last 2...

Books for Animal Lovers: Mutts by Sharon Montose
What’s the leading dog breed in the world? Well, of course, it isn’t a “breed” at all. The top dog, in terms of the numbers, is the humble mutt. And mutts—in their infinitely quirky, oddball, all-mixed-up variety—have a very special place in all our hearts.
Even so, mutts’ contributions to dogdom—and to the millions of human beings whose lives they share and enrich—have tended to remain uncelebrated. With Mutts, pet photograph...

This would be one of the highlights of the New Year!!
On 21st Dec 2011, a lady by the name of Ah Yoke called me regarding an owner who was about to throw her two-year old Husky out on the streets because she (the owner) did not have time to look after the dog anymore. I told Ah Yoke to get me a photograph from the owner, and with her consent, I will blog for adopters. However, the owner never got back to me.
I normally do not blog unless there is a photograph, but this time, I made an exception,...

Rescuers Are Actually Happy…I’m Glad!
1st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/12/30/new-polic y-from-4th-january-2012/
I had thought the new policy above would be met with complaints from rescuers but so far, my fears have been unfounded.
The few people whom I spoke to say it’s good to revise the policies to make rescuers more responsible.
This morning, I called one of the rescuers who have sought our sponsorship for many of his rescues. He doesn’t read English and is not internet-savvy, so I thought I should explain our new ...

Treasure Every Moment – Wisdom For The New Year
1st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Permit me, if you will, to share this little story with you.
Long, long ago, a wise man asked his three disciples: How long is the human lifespan?
The first answered: As long as a few days.
The wise man said: You have not learnt the truth.
The second answered: The space of a meal.
The wise man answered: You have not learnt the truth.
The third answered: The length of a single breath.
The wise man answered: YOU have learnt the truth.
So, how long is our life, folks?
Only as long as the next bre...

The Hundredth Monkey
1st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Here’s a sharing from an older and well-seasoned rescuer who has seen decades of rescue work:
I hope the coming year will be better than all the years before. Please do not despair if
you faced with challenges; it only serve to make you stronger in person and in spirit.
If what you have tried to communicate all this while does not seem to bear fruits; I would
like to share with you what I remember from my Behavioral Science case study a long time ago on
how ‘new awareness is created ...
