28th Apr 2011, by AnimalCare
This is the X-Ray of the cat with diaphragmatic hernia brought in by Mrs Goh. The vet suspects the liver has gone into the chest cavity. Mrs Goh has decided not to proceed with the high-risk operation, but instead, take the cat back and look after her. The X-Ray and bloodwork (the cat is clear from FeLV and FIV) are sponsored from our funds. She'll have to be prevented from jumping and knocking into any surfaces.The cat seems to be okay now.

Why "Myanimalcare.org"
27th Apr 2011, by AnimalCare
A few people came by our booth at the petfinder event and asked why our website is "myanimalcare" and not just "animalcare".Well, that's because I could not purchase the domain name "animalcare".
