Goose Specialist Alert! 20th Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
1st collector for Goose Specialist Alert!
Follow my videos on vodpod
Here I was today examining a very much loved goose named ‘China’. What are the odds, seriously? Maybe the word has gotten out that there is a goose specialist in town. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely crave learning more and more about every creature.
‘China’ is a very much loved pet Chinese goose that lives on a teaching farm. He lives on the same farm that ‘Tom’ the turkey did. He ...

Tiger, Back In His Baby Basket 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
The Sunny Kittens were adopted on 18th June. While they were with me, they had conveniently taken over Tiger's baby basket. Tiger is the Gandhi in my household. He is a total believer in Ahimsa (non-violence) - He never fights back. If Cow and Bunny threatens to attack him, which they sometimes do, he would just close his eyes real tight and not move. Somehow, it works. The two alpha-bullies back off after awhile. No thrill in threatening Tiger - he never fights back! Hence, Tiger doe...

Indy Found! Safe And Sound. 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
You tell me if cats have a sixth sense.....My plan was to take Indy to the vet's for his vaccination after I'm done with Pole and Cleo. I saw him under a car and I thought to myself, "Indy, afterwards, I'll take you."When I came home, he was no where to be found. He had completely disappeared. Then I had Weiwen's case so off I went to the vet's again and I told the vet I could not find Indy anywhere. We even joked that he must have gone into hiding. It soon turned out to ...

Healthy and fat dogNose being held by a piece of skinWe received a call from a tearful young woman this morning saying that one of the dogs she feeds in her neighbourhood in Semenyih had had its nose looped off. The young lady Ain, who is pregnant, begged us to rescue the dog and said she was exhausted from crying after seeing its condition. She said the dog's mother was also agitated upon seeing her daughter in such a condition and was howling non-stop. Apparently both dogs were not strays but...

A Young Rescuer With 4 Kittens 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Szetoo Weiwen wrote yesterday, asking if she could bring four rescued kittens for a check-up at our vet's. This is Weiwen's first time doing kitten rescue. She writes:I was at a funeral last Thursday in Setia Alam and on the way back to my car I found the kittens in a box thrown beside a pile of rubbish outside a house. I asked the house owner about them and he got angry and said I can take them if I wanted.I brought them home and fed them and every evening brought them back to that ...

Pole And Cleo To The Vet's 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
I failed to give Pole and Cleo their dewormer so it's off to the vet's today.Cleo was happily lounging upstairs. I had to take her and put her into the carrier. So sorry, Cleo. Cow (who is Cleo's uncle) watches closely.Then, I went out to call for Pole. Cow and Bunny had driven their sister, Pole, out of the house shortly after she had given birth and her kittens had weaned off. The vets say these things happen because Pole's scent may have changed and they no longer know it's ...

The Good, The Bad And The Ugly 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Every single day, I say a little prayer to thank all my guardian angels and the universal Law of Karma for bringing genuine rescuers, caring animal-feeders, well-wishers and supporters to AnimalCare because without them, there would be no AnimalCare and we would not have the opportunity to help these animals. But once in a blue moon, we get strange characters. Here's one....1. This person contacted me on 7th July, which was the day I had the all-day event in my college, so I had...

Sad News - Cindy Is Gone 20th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Devi texted me yesterday morning with the sad news that Cindy had passed away. If you recall, Cindy and Stuart are the two kittens we were desperately trying to find a fosterer/adopter for because the rescuer was going to send them to the shelter. Shelters have a policy of putting down very young kittens and puppies because they will probably not survive in the shelter environment. Cindy and Stuart were only 3 weeks old. The first person who responded to our race against time t...

Wild Cocky With Broken Wing 20th Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
Wild cocky with broken wing, a photo by Rayya The Vet on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
This sulphur cocky was brought in with a fractured wing. She was not ready to go and was so vibrant and full of life so I had to give her a chance. I strapped her wing and it healed. I then rehomed her.
She is currently still in captivity but with a bird lover who is pretty well set up.
She flies around with a few other cockys in a large aviary!
