OSCAR'S AMAZING JOURNEY!...
Soi Dog supporter "Pia" recently adopted one of the rescued "Dog Meat Trade" dogs from Nakhon Phanom.

Pole Is Happy In Condo And Other News
11th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
This morning, when I opened the backdoor, Pole was looking quite happy in her condo. I had prepared myself for the worst, ie. she had figured out a way to open the latch and has escaped again! But no, my preparation for the worst possible scenario was unfounded…phew!
She actually looked pretty happy in it.
Everyone had breakfast around the condo, and Pole had hers inside (an honoured privilege!).
Then, when Tabs went near the condo to nose around, poor little Tabs got hissed at by Pole (Do...

Buy A Recycle Bag And Help Feed The Furry Frens
11th Jan 2012, by Second Chance
Handsome Jackson was crowned our unofficial furry model for the day as we took full advantage of the lovely surrounding to take picture of the recycle bags to sell. Because of Jackson’s shiny black fur, all the colors match well with him :D Each recycle bag is RM10 and all proceeds will be used for running of the shelter. Limited Edition recycle bag with Jackson’s bite >_<

Two Proud Owners, Pole And Tabs
10th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Today, Pole is the proud owner of a new condominium.
House-warming the ground floor first.
Third floor.
I’ve given Pole Tabs’ litter-box as it is smaller than the rest of my litter-boxes and it fits right in.
Pole also has a brand new matching green water bowl fixed to the bars so that it won’t topple over.
The 2nd floor is nice too.
Pole has tried all the levels and she seems happy with it.
Many thanks to Cathy for going all the way to Puchong to get it for me.
As...

Updates On Ah Wong
10th Jan 2012, by Second Chance
Ah Wong has long been cured of her TVT. This is Mrs Lai's report on our beloved Ah Wong."She looked very happy and when she saw people, she barked as laud as other dogs. I opened the door of the cage and she eagerly moved her body forward wanted to come out of the cage. I was busy tending to other dogs and when I looked at her again, half of her body hanged out. So I understood her wish to come out and walk. I held her body and helped her walk around the room, she wagged her tail happily ...

Pole STILL In Cage At 12.48pm
10th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I’m almost going to freak out already, worrying if Pole made another escape attempt from the cage, but phew! She did not not.
While teaching, I did worry. What if something unexpected happened? Like maybe, someone left the sidegate open, and Cow leads everyone out, and they were now marching down the road, in single file, all seven of them, trying to find the way back to the old neighbourhood. When that vision appeared in my mind, I freaked out.
A friend told me when he was a child, he w...

Please Sponsor Rogers Today!
10th Jan 2012, by Soi Dog Foundation
Roger's was found and cared for by France and his girlfriend while visiting from Australia. She has probably been owned by a foreigner before & dumped when they left.
She obviously can't fend for herself so will be staying at the shelter. Yet another example of the importance of Soi Dog's sponsorship program.
If you are in a position to spare 80 cents a day please consider sponsoring Rogers or one of the many other dogs which we care for... http://www.soidog.org/en/sponsor-a-dog-or-cat/

I’m…dreaming Of A….big Cage?
10th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Sung to the tune of White Christmas:
I’m dreaming of a big cage…
The one that’ll keep Pole safe.
Where there’s space to stretch,
And platforms to jump on,
To keep her away from the rooftops…
Sorry folks, I’ve gone slightly cuckoo, so please excuse the extremely lame lyrics up there….
Yups, this is my dream…
Waiting for the 3-tiered cage and hope that’ll solve my problems once and for all.
Also, I managed to plead for the contractor to come ...

Possible Trouble?
10th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I hope not!
Guess who is visiting?
Huge and formidable, isn’t he?
He has what I would call the “classic” elderly tomcat look.
Well, hello Mr Cat. Glad to meet your acquaintance.We just moved into your neighbourhood.
Er…I hope you’re too big to come in through the gutter, Mr Cat. Please don’t, ‘coz we have seven cats here and you’re much bigger than all of them. Why, you’re even bigger than our dog, Bobby.
We mean no harm or disr...

The Nightmare Begins Again…at The Break Of Dawn (but Only For 10 Mins!)
10th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Pole escaped again…
We thought we had it all figured out?
No, Pole is always one step ahead. And she’s smart and devious, too.
This morning, everyone had breakfast and Pole had hers in the cage. After that, I cleaned her litter-box and let her out to stretch.
Last night, when I let her out, she went to the sidegate and looked at the gap and the gate at what we thought was her escape route, or rather, what she wanted us to think.
But we were all fooled.
That was not her escape route.
