Be Wary Of Fraudulent Emails
21st Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
This post has nothing to do with animals, but I thought some people might want to know about fraudulent emails supposedly sent by our banks. A few days ago, I received an email from m2u. It looked absolutely authentic, EXACTLY like the usual email alert from m2u informing you that someone had banked in a certain amount into your account. Pls see below.The email said a Goh Chin Chay had banked in RM200 into my personal MBB account for Victorine (Jacinta and Kelly's shelter in Ipoh, th...

The Appalling Extent Of Human Cruelty
21st Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Wani called me yesterday regarding this case:http://malaysiandogsdeservebetter.blogspot.co m/2011/07/evil-human-who-cut-off-this-dogs-nose.ht mlSomeone had lopped off the poor dog's nose. I hope that someone can be found and his heinous crime reported to the DVS. But the maximum fine is only RM200. I'm going to visit the dog today since Karuna is at the same clinic. Let's send positive thoughts to the dog and pray that he will be strong. Also, to the dog's mother who was cryin...

Flourescent Corneal Ulcer In Canine
21st Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
flourescent corneal ulcer in canine, a photo by Rayya The Vet on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
For a thorough eye examination, we must always do a fluorescein stain test. This stain will be taken up if there is a corneal ulceration. Using a UV light, you can detect the corneal ulcer as it will fluoresce bright green. The green circle in this dog is a corneal ulcer!!!

Updates On Stuart
21st Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Devi texted last night to say someone sent her milk for Stuart but it isn't Pets Own Milk. She did not mention the brand, but I hope it is suitable for Stuart. However, she said Stuart did not want to take the milk. Not drinking is a very worrisome sign for little kittens. They go down very quickly. Yesterday, Punitha had already found a volunteer fosterer who was willing to drive all the way to Brickfields to pick up Stuart, foster him until he is stronger and return him to Devi, but...

Visiting Naughty Sammy
21st Jul 2011, by Second Chance
We paid Sammy boy a visit over the weekend, and were we surprised to see the little fella recovering so fast and being so active!Sammy appearing energetic and alertApparently, this escape artist succeeded in running off once last week from the fosterer's house by squeezing through a very tiny hole, jaywalking around the area and keeping just enough distance so that the breathless fosterer in hot pursuit could never reach him. After almost an hour of running and coaxing and bribing with foo...

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.

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 ...
