Jaffa And The Folding Chair
28th Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
Jaffa is one very special puppy that got trapped in a folding chair and no one knew who caused the accident. She lost a few of her toes on her front legs & fractured her back leg in the process. She was stabilised and then surgery had to be performed to tidy up the damage on her front leg and surgically repair her fractured back leg. Ten minutes after we put her under anaesthetic, her heart stopped. She had to get intracardiac adrenaline and we managed to resuscitate her. We had to pre...

A Happy And Less Timid Coral
28th Jul 2011, by Second Chance
Coral has been with us since end of last year. She was very timid and lifeless even after a few months.~ Coral in Nov 2010 ~In the first month, Coral rarely stepped out of her hiding spot ( inside this huge cage donated by a kind samaritan ). She don’t mix with other furry frens and cower in fear when most of us try to go near her. ~Coral in Dec 2010 ~Coral finally built enough courage to venture out of her hiding spot but was still looking joyless. ~Fast forward to Jun 2011~She SMILED!!

Slithering Snake
27th Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
I have been very fortunate in my experiences as a vet. I have seen quite a wide range of cases that not many vets would have. I feel blessed and quite thankful for that. It has made me a much better and more well-rounded vet. I am simply ready to tackle any species and am so keen to learn more and more each day! I personally enjoy knowing a little bit about everything instead of a lot about one thing because I can always build on my good foundation with more knowledge.
I can’t think of an...

A True Story To Share
27th Jul 2011, by Second Chance
We recently came across this article entitled “ A Teary Mother Bear Killed Her Baby and Committed Suicide- A Heart Breaking True Story”.We have decided to share this story though it’s not related to Dogs/Cats but still very much relevant if looked from “caring about animal welfare” perspective. The story brought tears to our eyes and lumps to our throats, for we simply cannot comprehend the amount of suffering humans are capable of inflicting upon other fellow living beings. All in the...

Please Try NOT To Bring Any Strays You See On The Streets To The SSPCA.
27th Jul 2011, by SPCA Sarawak
Most of them, although not clean or healthy looking, can take care of themselves and bringing them to the SPCA will result in more work, costs and burden to the staff who already have to take care of a few hundred animals, many of which are sick and severely malnourished.Of special concern are animals like kittens and puppies which are too small and young to be separated from their mothers. Sometimes, their mothers are not around because they have gone looking for food to feed themselves so that...

NASTY PEOPLE
26th Jul 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
More evidence is cropping up that Chitta's attack was prompted by the suspect who cannot tolerate dogs. Yesterday local council dog catchers went to the area and caught five of several dogs that were being fed by the residents there. These were the dogs that we had plans to TNRM as there were already people feeding and caring from them. These dogs were living behind Chitta's house and were probably her friends. We called up and the council people us that they had received a complaint from someon...
