Hi Dr Chan,
Good news! “Brownie” a.k.a Lulu has an owner! His owner spotted him and inquired.

So anyway, I will not be applying for any subsidy for...

Maximum Security….finally!! (the New Pole-Indy-Proof Grille)
23rd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
I had been waiting for the contractor, Ah Keong, to call me ever since he took the whole cat-grille back to figure out how best to cat-proof Bunny’s room.
Voila…today, he called!!
He came over with the full-length grille – added up from the old one. And he cleverly made a rectangular hole so that I could open the latch from inside the room. There is no latch on the inside (in case Pole figures out how to open latches, you’ll never know, right?).
Nice?
Actually, never m...

Bobby’s Acupuncture Today
23rd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Bobby had his fortnightly acupuncture session by Dr Susanna today.
Not much objection this time.
I notice Bobby has actually improved a lot (clinically) after all these acupuncture sessions. Also, the daily evening walks in the sun help a lot. It feels like he has more muscle now, and his appetite is much, much improved.
Prick, prick…
Happy and relaxed after the session.

The Blueys – Spayed On Monday And Doing Well! (Andy Lew’s)
23rd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Blueys news is always happy news, isn’t it?
Well, the Blueys were spayed on Monday and they boarded a night at the vet’s too. Andy brought them to a clinic near his place and apparently, the rate is only RM180 for each spaying and it includes one night’s boarding (that’s really good, right?). This vet uses the flank (side) method and also provides the e-collar.
Some vets do not use the e-collar as it stresses the animal, but some do. In one case sponsored by us, the cat b...

One Female Puppy Spayed And Adopted (Aaron Lee Szion Jin’s)
23rd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
From Aaron on 16th January:
The two puppies appeared at the same time one night in front of my house.
When they appeared, they were little puppies and I decided to keep them because I cant stand knowing they might die running on the streets like that.
So, few days later, i brought them to the vet and doctor said they looked around 3 months old.
And we had to give them some vaccination jabs as they were puppies, suggested the doctor.
As time passed by, my family and I decided to keep them.
