A Sunshiny Day For Sunshine Courage!
24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Updates from my friend who is nursing Sunshine Courage (please note that my friend has requested anonymity, hence, she remains as “my friend”):
Hi Kah Yein,
Today has been an excellent day with Sunshine!
As far as I can tell, as of this morning, all the previously compacted poo has been removed manually. It must be such a relief to the system and I believe this opens the possibility of more healing as the body is not stressed by the accumulation of waste materials.
Previously when...

Saying My Piece, And Moving On…
24th Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
I’m not in the habit of dwelling in the negative, but sometimes, in the course of dealing with so many different types of humans, the ugly human annoys you, and you just have to say your piece, if only to preserve your much-needed sanity.
I’ll get straight to the point, say all that I want to say and move on as there’s lots to do.
1. There are those who demand for help. Not ask, but demand. Please don’t do that. Nobody on earth owes anybody anything. Even our parents don&...

More Options For Sunshine Courage
23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Courage is now officially named “Sunshine Courage”, Sunshine is the nickname given by my friend who has agreed to nurse her for a few weeks.
I spoke to another vet today, just to widen my understanding of Courage’s condition and if she has more options.
According to this vet, it is recommended that spinal chord damage undergo reparative surgery within 2-6 hours of the trauma. After that, it might be too late and the damage would be settled.
For Courage’s case, we do not e...

The poor dog, known as Vucko, wandered for five days, unable to eat and with maggots infecting the meaty pulp of his ruined face. Vucko was finally picked up b...

Two Stories of Loyal Friends and Proof Nobody Loves You Like a Dog
by Megan Drake
November 22, 2011
The love and loyalty of a good dog is well known. Recently, a report of a Hachi-like happening came from China. That was also on the heels of a similar story in California.
China
Lao Pan, a man in China whose only companion was a dog, died earlier this month at the age of 68. He left no family other than the loyal yellow dog with whom he shared his life. Once ...

Visiting Amber Horsey And Friends
23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
It’s been sometime since I last saw Amber Horsey. She was one of our amputees, brought in by Joanne Lim from Klang with a bad leg. The leg was amputated and I enlisted my friend, Lydia’s help to rehabilitate Amber Horsey.
Amber Horsey has been with Lydia for many months now, and is as fit, if not fitter than any other able-bodied dogs.
Amber is also good friends with Seven, Lydia’s other rescued tripod.
According to Lydia, the two of them rule her household and even bully the r...

Pretty Mama, Spayed And Will Be Adopted (Jessy Lian’s)
23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Jessy Lian brought Pretty Mama for spaying under our sponsorship today.
Pretty Mama was brought in about 2 months ago, but found to be pregnant, so the spaying was postponed. She delivered three kittens but all of them died. Poor things, and poor Pretty Mama. Jessy said she followed her when Jessy took her kittens away to be buried and she watched them being buried. That is so sad…
But here’s the good news. Pretty Mama will be adopted after this. Someone saw her photo and says she ...

Mandy Chee was the one who asked for help last night and she informed me that Eling Chan needs financial aid for the medical treatment for this rescued dog. So, this morning I texted Eling to ask the condition of the dog so that I could make an appointment at our vet’s and also to brief the vet about the condition of the dog. Eling said the dog was “ok”...

For Adoption!
23rd Nov 2011, by Second Chance
Amber was found emaciated and was suffering from TVT. TVT is a form of benign cancer which is transmitted through touch during mating. TVT is usually suffered by dogs that are not spayed or neutered. Not only that spaying/neutering helps control the overpopulation of strays, it helps prevent TVT in dogs. It has been 7 months since Amber has been cured from TVT and she is now looking for a home. At the moment she is with her fosterer, Krystal. Here are some pictures of Amber.Amber is a very frien...

Updates On Blacky (Jessy Lian’s)
23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Jessy Lian rescued a small black kitten a few days ago.
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2011/11/urgent- fostereradopter-needed-for-rescued-kitten-jessy-li ans/
We have pledged our medical subsidy for this kitten, but have advised Jessy that we do not cover boarding unless the kitten requires it medically. Jessy said she would discharge the kitten once declared fit and board her elsewhere at a more affordable rate since her family does not allow her to foster anymore cats in her house.
There was a ...

A Small Panic Situation Last Night (Courage)
23rd Nov 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday evening, at about 8.30pm, my friend sent an S.O.S. Courage was panting and breathing heavily with her mouth open. We all know that’s not a very good sign. That started happening about two hours after her meal.
By sheer luck, our vet was still at the clinic attending to cases, so I managed to get him to ask for advice.
As reported by my friend, Courage was having shallow breathing and appeared to panting. The mouth was open. Breathing was fast. Gums was dry. 125 pants per minute. ...
