"MERLINWIZ" - DUMPED & FORGOTTEN.... WE NEED TO FIND HIM SPONSORS
31st Jan 2012, by Soi Dog Foundation
This old boy was discovered by a foreigner at Patong Beach. Merlinwiz is an old dog (approx 9 years of age) & he was found wandering around the beach in a very confused and disoriented state. We're not sure how Merlinwiz ended up at the beach, but he appeared to have been DUMPED by someone.
Merlinwiz could barely see as he had lots of discharge from his eyes (due to his age) & the poor boy was totally bewildered. He's now safe in our "Old Age" dog run. He sleeps most of the day, but enjoys bei...

A Tale From A Fishing Boat
31st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From a forwarded email:
The Best Day Of Fishing Ever!
Some fishing stories are a little hard to believe, but this guy has pictures to prove his story…
I’ve heard of salmon jumping into boats, but never anything quite like this…
Tom Satre told the Sitka Gazette that he was out with a charter group on his 62-foot fishing vessel when four juvenile black-tailed deer swam directly toward his boat.
“Once the deer reached the boat, the four began to circle the boat, looking ...

When We Bring An Animal To The Clinic, Please Do So Wisely
31st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I am compelled to write this over a recent case, if only for the information and attention of new rescuers when they bring their animals to the clinic for treatment.
Please be informed and be aware that clinics and hospitals (humans’ and animals’) are some of the least hygienic places to be at. If I go to a human clinic and there are people coughing or sneezing, and if I am weak, it’s very likely I would contract the disease too. Can I then blame the clinic for causing me to be...

Running The Last Laps (Sunsuper Dreams)
31st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
It is now 6.50am and we are currently leading by 925 votes. Is that a comfortable lead? Well, actually no. We’ve seen how a certain contender could put in votes by the hundreds in several hours, so this certainly isn’t a comfortable lead.
We’re running the last few laps now, so as in a sporting event, let’s give it all we’ve got.
If you have anyone at all who has not voted and may wish to support us, please forward the link to him/her.
Please vote only once.

On The Homefront
31st Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
And what has been happening at home?
Tabby Inc. share a chair.
So cute, right?
On guard duty.
Duty shift.
Senior guard uses toilet.
A bit of disturbing news, though, Cow has begun spraying in Bunny’s Room and I’m trying very hard to stop it. Sigh, wish me luck! Bunny hasn’t started spraying yet, but if I cannot get it under control, Bunny will. Was so happy in the first 3 weeks when there was no spraying nonsense at all.
The quick white Pole jumps over the cat-gril...

SPONSOR THE FAMOUS SHIVER!!
31st Jan 2012, by Soi Dog Foundation
Shiver was found at the side of a road at the brink of death. He had horrific skin infections, malnutrition & pneumonia.
We did not think Shiver would survive. After several months of intensive care & treatment Shiver's condition gradually improved. His story was shared worldwide & he helped create awareness of Soi Dog internationally.
We'd love to find Shiver a home, but at present he's still much too shy & nervous to be adopted. As a result, Shiver may have to spend some more time here at ...

Dear Friends,
It is now 12.00am, 31st January.
The Sunsuper Dreams Contest will end at 3pm (M’sian time) today. We are now, thank heavens, leading by 1079 votes.
The last few days of this contest has been a roller-coaster ride for us. Those who have followed our progress knows what it has been like. Suffice to say that this contest has reminded me what our world is like – full of imperfections and full of tests, but also full of hope and cheer, if we make it so for ourselves.
What ou...

Cats For Adoption (Inez Sue’s)
30th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From Inez:
Hi Dr Chan,
How are you?
I sent out the original receipt today, do let me know once you’ve received it.
We brought the female kitten to the clinic today, the doctor said she’s fine and just has worms in her stomach, he gave her the deworming paste hopefully she’ll get well soon. They couldn’t take in the kitten as they already had two over there.
My housemate actually meant that they were not comfortable with ALL my cats in the house. They told me that yester...

MEET "LUCKY" - CAN WE FIND THIS PRETTY GIRL A FAMILY!
30th Jan 2012, by Soi Dog Foundation
MEET "LUCKY" - CAN WE FIND THIS PRETTY GIRL A FAMILY! Lucky was found with a broken pelvis & femur, probably due to a road accident. She arrived at Soi Dog at just a a few months old, very frightened & bewildered.
After several months of treatment in our clinic she's healed well & is now healthy & living in our Puppy Run. She used to be a little scared of people, probably due to her limited exposure to humans as a small pup. But now thanks to lots of visits from volunteers, she's completely ...

22 Hours More Of Voting (Sunsuper Dreams)
30th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
After what seemed to be a really demotivating morning, finally some light shone on us at around 4.00pm.
The organisers began deducting votes from the dream that had overtaken us by storm this morning.
It had been a real storm watching the contender chalk up thousands of votes within the last two days while our CNY-holidaying crowd only managed to put in something like 50-100 votes per day.
I think most of our supporters have already voted, and we have practically exhausted all our avenues to get...
