Spaying (Ovariohysterectomy): The Benefits In Dogs 12th Jul 2011, by SPCA Sarawak

The obvious conclusion is that we should breed fewer dogs and cats and produce fewer litters. The best way to ensure that this occurs is through sterilization procedures, so a larger percentage of dogs and cats are incapable of breeding. Performing an ovariohysterectom...

We had also not made any announcements in the media and solely relied on blog, Facebook and email announcements. A big thank you to all our volunteers who gave their best to ensure that the adoption drive went on well. Terima Kasih.

Updates On Karuna (doing Well!) 11th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Here's Karuna, folks...According to the vets, she is doing as well as can be expected of such an old dog and one who was brought in in this state. The daily cleaning of the bite wounds continues. Karuna is still weak, but she is able to walk to a corner to poo, and the best news is that she has a great appetite!She looks pretty sad...poor thing. I suppose that's how an old dog feels when she has no proper home or people to love her. The bullying and attack by the pack of ...

Why Neuter Your Dog? 11th Jul 2011, by SPCA Sarawak
Why Neuter Your Dog?Dr. Lila Miller, D.V.M., ASPCAMale dogs and cats mark territory by spraying urine. This is especially true of cats, whose urine has a very strong odor. Neutering eliminates the odor and markedly reduces the incidence of urine spraying. It is most effective when performed before marking starts, but will often work even after the marking has become a habit.Neutering eliminates the occurrence of testicular cancer.Neutering markedly reduces the incidence of benign hyperplasia of ...

Congratulations To All Pikachus And Tweety Birds! 11th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
I continue to be awed and inspired by all our brave and heroic yellow-coloured friends and even though this is a blog about animals, I'll make an exception and pay tribute to them all. The reason you see fewer postings here is because I'm still reading all the touching and inspiring Bersih stories on the Net! Perhaps the animals would also benefit when we have more caring and righteous leaders. Perhaps we can then push for no-kill at the pounds and CNRM on the streets and we wo...

Peek-A-Boo! 10th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Eh...who's this?Why, it's Cow the Mau!Cow has been extremely "cooperative" with our medicine-feeding endeavours in the last two days. Today has been extremely smooth-sailing. He actually came to us asking to be caught so that he could take his medicine....would you believe that?He allows us to plonk him into the carrier, and takes his medicines (two pills) without any fuss whatsoever. Then, we heap praises on him and he gets a generous serving of Fussie Cat.But now, I thi...
