From 7 Puppies To Only 6 Now
24th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/04/22/what-went -wrong-for-the-7-puppies-and-their-mother/
I was informed last night that one puppy had passed on while being on drips at the clinic.
Apparently, it is not parvovirus but distemper that had afflicted the entire family.
The incubation period for distemper is known to be between 3-21 days but most websites put it as 7-21 days.
The puppies are already 4 months old, according to the caregiver, and they had been breastfed by their mother while the wh...

Indy Is Limping…again
24th Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, Indy was sleeping for a long time in the basket on my table, and it seemed a bit too long. When he woke up, he limped a little. I thought it was just a sprain, but after observing him a bit, it looks like the old problem has surfaced again. That December nightmare.
The only thing I started giving him about 5 days ago was the stemtech. A friend of mine had just lost her cat due to pyelonephritis last week. Indy is a pyelonephritis suspect case, so I thought I should just give him the s...

Tinsel Will Be Adopted…and This Time, For Good, FINALLY!!
23rd Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/04/02/tinsel-ca t-for-adoption-terry-saws/
Tinsel has a rather sad history. As a tiny kitten, he was rescued by Terry’s friend, from behind the tyre of a car that was just about to roll over him. Terry fostered him, and when he was old enough, we found an adopter for him. Unfortunately, his wife was allergic to cat fur and Tinsel was returned.
Next, Tinsel was adopted by a couple. After almost three years, the couple migrated, took their other cat but did...

She'd been found on the streets by some Australian tourists. She charmed us all on arrival with her wrinkly little face & sweet personality. She was shy, yet very eager for human company & used to scoot along the ground 7 curl up at our feet.
Chrisi's now 15 months old, having spent the last 10 months at the shelter. She's blossomed into a beautiful girl...

THE SAD STORY OF "MORK"
23rd Apr 2012, by Soi Dog Foundation
THE SAD STORY OF "MORK"... Gill got a call this week from a European man to say that a dog outside the "Catch" restaurant in Surin Beach needed euthanizing! She asked him why & was told he had been attacked & that all down 1 side of the dog there were open wounds. Gill explained that we do not euthanise animals without a vet seeing them, trying to save them is our top priority. At the end of the day it would be our vets decision, if that decision needed to be made.
Gill set off straight away w...

Equation Tshirt – Would You Like One?
23rd Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Our Equation tshirt arrived last week and as of now, we’ve sold out on S36 (teenage Sports size).
We cater for 14 sizes, but will later be downsizing it to only 9 sizes because managing 14 sizes in five designs is just too much work for me! Storage space is another problem too.
With 8 sizes, I will rename it using the usual XS, S, M, L and XL. But this will only happen much later after all the existing stocks are sold out.
Actually, the sizes differ by only a little. For example, I can ...

How Old Is My Pet?
23rd Apr 2012, by MDDB & MCCP Penang
How Old is My Pet? Correctly Calculate Your Dog or Cat's Age!Most people think that calculating the age of dogs and cats in "human years" is quite simple: multiply their age by seven. For example, a 4-year-old dog or cat would actually be 28 years old in human years.But when you really begin weighing out the arithmetic, this method doesn't add up. Say a 1-year-old dog is the equivalent of a 7-year-old human -- get out of here! How many 7-year-old humans are sexually active and capabl...

Injured Dog Spotted In SS2/4 (Huey’s)
23rd Apr 2012, by AnimalCare
Huey’s on her way back to Penang but she spotted a dog with a leg injury in the SS2/4 area this morning. Would anyone be interested to help?
Hi Dr Chan.
I saw this dog in SS2/4 this morning. Looks like his front leg was broken or something. As I’m already leaving KL, do you know anyone around that area who would be able to check him out? I don’t think he is a pet as there’s no collar whatsoever on him.
I know this is a long shot since I have no any further info, and I als...

23rd Apr 2012, by PetFinder.my
A welcomed update to Malaysia's long-awaited ANIMAL WELFARE BILL.
Will 2012 finally be the year that brings forth desperately-needed enhancements on our half-century old regulations?
Let us not forget that with the legislation in place, improved enforcement is equally critical to put words into action.
Let's keep our fingers crossed and continue to show our strong support to the NGOs that are fighting hard to make this a reality!
