Updates On Kenya! (Reena Kong’s) 22nd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Kenya is the beloved pet of Reena Kong. A very unfortunate accident in the alley in August 2011 caused Kenya to be critically injured. Her right eye was gone, the left engorged, her lips were smashed and her tongue was hanging out. I remember the very afternoon that Reena called me and asked me to recommend a vet who could address Kenya’s problem. The vet Reena consulted earlier had suggested that Kenya be euthanised.
Reena would not give up on Kenya, so she sought treatment. Kenya went in...

We Have No Provisions To Give Out Loans, And Other Related Matters 22nd Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Dear all,
In the past few months, there have been rescuers writing in asking for help for their animals. When I offered our subsidy plan, they write back saying they have absolutely NO money at all. Some of these are working adults. I find it rather hard to imagine any working adult who has NO money at all unless their house has been razed to the ground or there has been a calamity in their lives.
But no, some of these people perpetually have “no money”. Is it a case of bad financial...

Natts was found at Baan Yaa & rescued by Soi Dog in February this year. Poor Natts had a maggot infested neck wound, probably caused by being tied up for a very long time.
It's difficult to imagine the pain & suffering this must have caused him.

Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/02/21/darwin-th e-real-story/
Here’s more from Narelle:
I was showing one of my volunteers yr site and saw the latest one on Darwin. The only thing that doesn’t add up, is we didn’t get it thru a big group. It was a lady, she originally rescued it and put it in the clinic. I know she raised funds for it’s care in the clinic and cargo up….maybe the bigger group lumped them all in together. But you are about right…..Whatever, ...

Remember a few days ago, I just posted the story of Darwin? Way back in July 2006, I was just starting out and a then established group wanted to do a bigtime rescue mission to take dogs out of the Puchong dogpound, I decided to help them and got my brother-in-law’s lorry to ferry the dogs out.
