Winnie And Dad - New Rescuers In The Making!!
18th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
I wrote this about a week ago: http://www.myanimalcare.org/2011/07/appe al-for-help-to-catch-stray-dogs-in.html. It was about Winnie Low and her father, who feeds the stray dogs at his workplace in North Port, appealing for rescuers to help capture the dogs to be spayed-neutered. Since no one volunteered, Winnie and her father decided to try to do it themselves. So, Winnie and her mum came over yesterday to borrow two of our large foldable cages. This morning, W...

A Wonderful Carnival At SS19/1
17th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
We starting setting up our booth at 7am this morning. The moment I arrived, the children and residents of the neighbourhood were right there to offer to carry all our stuff from my car. The committee members of the SS19/1 Residents' Association were very helpful too. One cannot help but feel the warm hospitality and friendly welcome extended by everyone who was there. "This is going to be a good day", I thought to myself. Soon, CP arrived, followed by Mary and Amy. ...

Fox Parade Close Up

Fox parade close up, a photo by Rayya The Vet on Flickr.
Via Flickr:
This is a closeup that I took today. This is when I identified that the animals were FOXES. We were driving home and we saw this sight. We actually had to stop and I walked down to assess the situation more closely. I wasn’t sure what animals they were from a distance.
Not such a nice thing to see on my birthday!
I would like this to be a topic for discussion.
I realise foxes kill alot of animals and they usually do it f...

Remembering Dodo, Mayo Clinic's Resident-Cat
17th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
This is a short but very sweet tribute to Dodo, Mayo Clinic's resident-cat who passed away a few days ago. It's from Cheryl Poo:Sigh Kah Yein, I just read your blog post about Dodo. I'm feeling sad as I've always liked the ginger guy. He was one of the most gracious cats I've ever seen. When I brought Cookie in to be spayed, I let her out to wander around and Dodo followed her into the first room. He was so cute... he was eyeing Cookie and I was a little worried that this way bigger cat mi...

An S.O.S. Trip To The Hospital For Bunny
17th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
After Indy came home and all the hustle and bustle in feeding him medicine and trying to deworm the rest, we noticed the Bunny was unusually quiet. It was after dinner that we felt his body and it felt really warm. He was also sleeping and not looking too good. The previous two days, he had been making a lot of mischief. But he is definitely unwell now....Oh dear...tomorrow is Sunday and Bunny's regular vet is closed. Why do pets usually choose to fall sick on Satur...

TVT DOG And Puppies
16th Jul 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
This stray mum that has TVT and seven pups is being fed by an elderly man. When he noticed that she had TVT, he wanted to call the local council asking them to take her away. Luckily, Ashley managed to coax him not to. We have promised to treat and spay her before releasing her back at where she is now so that the elderly man can continue feeding her. We wish there is a better place where we can send her but reality dictates that there is little hope for mother dogs to be adopted. We have also g...

16th Jul 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
WE received notification several days ago that there were three puppies at a school in Taman Tun and the school authorities had given up to noon to get them.

We now need to take them out of there and find them temporary foster homes pending adoption. We would be very grateful if ...

Young Adult Male Dog For Adoption
16th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Here's another request:This is the picture of the young dog my selfish and irresponsible neighbour threw out. She said, "he's naughty" and she "can't accept" it. He is around 7 months old - he's a puppy, of course he would be energetic and high spirited!! He's now in my garden, too intimidated by my 4 to go into the house. They seem determined to menace him because, well, they can! He's good with cats and small dogs (my 4 are smaller than him!!) and sweet natured and ver...

16th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Here we go again....I know, it's endless, but that's the reality, and if we give up and say, "there are so many of them, how many can we help", then everybody will stop helping and the animals will suffer.So, here goes:Dear Dr.Chan,I would like you to help me post the photo of this kitten on your blog seeking for fosterer/adopoter. Apparently, my neighbour - the Aunty have no choice but to give the kitten away because her husband (the MAN OF THE HOUSE) DOES NOT LIKE CAT & ask Aunty to take t...

Indy Goes To The Vet's
16th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
I've always been concerned that Indy drinks a wee bit too much water. He only drinks from the running tap and no where else. He would call us (yes, he CALLS us) to go into the kitchen and turn on the tap for him. Then, he licks the running tap water. And it has always seemed to be me that he licks a bit too long. Cats are not supposed to drink a lot of water. So, I thought I should bring him for a check-up, especially after just visiting the kidney failure cat...

Karuna's Old Age Problems
16th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday the vet called me in the evening. Apparently, one of Karuna's lesions had ruptured and needed either dressing with antiseptic, or surgery under sedation. The vet was concerned about putting Karuna under sedation because of her age.This afternoon, there was another swelling on the side of her body. The vet decided not to use sedation and just try lancing to drain off the swelling. Karuna, surprisingly, did not put up a fuss at all. She allowed the vets to d...

End-Stage Kidney Failure Cat
16th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
This afternoon, Mary and I spent some time accompanying Mary's colleague at the clinic. The colleague's cat is suffering from end-stage kidney failure. There seems to be little that allopathic medicine can do for a cat at this stage of kidney failure except to put him on drips and to force-feed.There are numerous causes of kidney failure. Too many to list down. But some of the signs would be excessive intake of water and weight loss. This cat used to be obese, but b...

HORRIFIC SATURDAY
16th Jul 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
It was a horrible day today with several cases of dogs in distress. We received our first call at about 7.50 am today from a grocery store owner who said that a young dog that lingered around her area in Setapak was knocked down by a car. She said the dog was howling in pain and asked if we could collect it. We advised her to take the dog to the nearest veterinary clinic where it can be first treated and collected by us later in the day. When w called about half-an-hour later, the lady sa...

Cows Saying Hello!!!
16th Jul 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
I was walking my boyz down the campbells creek path walk and these four cows ran towards us. They were asking me for food but closely watching my dogs’s every move. Some even assumed the bull attack stance but thankfull didn’t go through the fence. They were so entertaining because they followed us for most of the walk. I even got to pat them and feed them some grass. As they always say, the grass is greener on the other side of the paddock and it trully was in this situation; they h...
