PRAYER OF A STRAY
Dear God please send me somebody who'll care!
I'm tired of running, I'm sick with despair.
My body is aching, it's so racked with pain.
And Dear God I pray as I run in the rain,
That someone will love me and give me a home.
A warm cozy bed I can call my own
My last owner neglected me and chased me away
To rummage in garbage and live as a stray.
But now God I'm tired and hungry and cold.
And I'm afraid that I'll never grow old.
They've chased me with sticks and hit me with ston...

Pole’s First Attempt….from Alcatraz? 21st Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
It didn’t take long….
After breakfast today, the 1st attempt was carried out and I caught it all on camera.
Watch…
From the box-bungalow where Pole has declared her home, suddenly, she dashed across the room, heading straight towards the door!!
Gaining sufficient momentum, after careful calculation last night, the feline-catapult was launched, and….
Up!!!
Hook on, TEAR with all your might!!
Indy cheers her on.
Go, Pole, go!!

Macha's Story...
Macha is one of the many dogs you can help through Soi Dog's sponsorship program:
http://www.soidog.org/en/sponsor-a-dog-o r-cat/
Macha arrived with an extremely bad wound on her paw which was severely swollen & infested with maggots. After extensive treatment it was obviously still causing her much discomfort & the decision was made to amputate.
Your sponsorship will help support Macha during her recovery. Hopefully one day, we can find a special home for this sweet girl.

More Litter Tales (Part 2) 21st Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Call me crazy, but right now, I’m using three types of cat-litter.
I was hoping I’d be able to change to the paper-litter (for health and environmental friendliness) but my brood wouldn’t go anywhere near it. So I was going to give the whole pack away until my friend, Cathy, told me to sprinkle some onto my existing Ever Clean to get the cats slowly and gradually accustomed to the new litter.
Oh well, why not? Nothing to lose, I hope.
But I had run out of Ever Clean already, so...

Cat-Proofing The Last Bastion….Ze Grille! 21st Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
After all the heart-stopping episodes (my friend Cathy said her heart also stopped many times just reading my posts yesterday!) by Indy, Pole, Tabs and Cleo, we just had to do something to cat-proof the last bastion – the catgrille.
The catgrille was actually meant to curb Cow & Bunny from going out ‘coz they spray. But so far, only Cow sprays now. Maybe (just maybe) calling the place “Bunny’s Place” has had a good effect – Bunny doesn’t spray anymor...

A Rescued Puppy, Saved In The Nick Of Time (Leslie Guoh’s) 20th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Last week, my friend, Leslie Guoh, texted to say a newly rescued puppy which her daughter had brought home, seemed very ill. The puppy was motionless, going down fast. She thought the puppy was going to die soon.
I advised her to quickly send the puppy to my vet for treatment. We will provide a subsidy since it is a rescued animal.
Leslie did, and today, the puppy is alright.
Here is Leslie’s story:
Dear Sis
Hope you are in great health, from the kindness
you bestowed on little pup.

We have sponsored the neutering of one male dog (RM30) and the spaying of one female dog (RM40), both brought down from Raub by Meiji to Klinik Kembiri. Both dogs were rescued from the roadside. The male dog was extremely emaciated initially but after a week of feeding, seemed healthy again.
The procedures were done on Saturday and both dogs are doing well now.
As Meiji could not send me the photographs, here’s the receipt:
I have requested for photographs in future as it is needed for au...
