It’s #WorldHeritageDay!
Nearly half of UNESCO natural World Heritage sites are under pressure from harmful industrial activities. One example is Selous Game Reserve, one of the world's last wilderness areas. It is a natural UNESCO World Heritage site home to elephants, hippos and wild lions. Thumbs up if you want places like this one to be protected for future generations to come!

FIV Cats At Play
18th Apr 2019, by Soi Dog Foundation
FIV Myth Buster!
Myth: People believe that adopting an FIV cat means you’re adopting a sick cat with a short life span
Fact: The Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) directly affects their immune system which makes it harder for them to fight diseases but it doesn't mean that they can't live fun filled lives!
Have you considered adopting an FIV+ cat?
Soi Dog Foundation is one of the few rescues that give FIV+ cats the chance to live a normal life and find a loving home. FIV can only be pas...

Zurik’s Test Results – It IS FIP
18th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
All my hopes are dashed now. The Rivalta test was positive, which means there is an 86% chance that it is FIP. Coupled with the pleural effusion where the liquid is yellow and sticky, the positive corona virus test on the blood and the ALB/GLOB ratio being 0.5, it all points towards FIP.
My last hope was the Rivalta test. I had hoped it would be negative, but it isn’t. It’s positive. There was a small blob which shows the presence of exudate protein. The protein level in ...

Zurik’s Update
18th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
I’ve been doing my best to find out about the Rivalta Test and so far, there are two clinics that has done it before. In yesterday’s post, if you viewed the video, you’d see how relatively easy it can be done. It just needs a test-tube, water, a few drops of vinegar and one drop of the pleural effusion. Then, hope that the jellyfish will NOT appear.
The vet kept Zurik’s effusion aspirated from yesterday. I was told that the test “failed” yesterday because the...

Indy’s Water Intake
18th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
Indy has to drink more water in our attempt to get his creatinine level down (if at all possible) so that we can do his dental scaling and tooth extraction. Actually, among the four of them, Indy has the worst dental hygiene because of the presence of pus in his mouth.
However, due to the high creatinine reading, the procedure cannot be done yet.
But Indy is a kibble king, so this probably adds to the problem of insufficient water intake.
He used to drink a lot from the running tap and this happ...

Bunny’s Updates
18th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
I updated the vet about Bunny every day. Compared with Cow, Bunny’s recovery from the dental procedure was significantly slower. I was worried for the first two days. But now, he is almost back to normal behaviour.
The vet said one of the reasons could be Bunny’s reaction to the transdermal Tramadol. Maybe the dosage was too high and it made Bunny sleepy. So, we reduced it to 0.1ml instead of 0.2ml. Also, I don’t think he needs it much longer as he hasn’t shown symptoms ...

Just look at the difference you’ve made for Lloyd! Do you remember this gorgeous boy? He was a homeless dog who arrived at the Soi Dog shelter after somebody deliberately slashed him across the face. Now imagine for a moment if there had been nowhere for him to go….
Your help is desperately needed. The Soi Dog shelter is permanently operating over capacity. Please go to https://bit.ly/Saving_LLoyd and donate what you to expand the shelter so that more desperate animals like Lloyd can be giv...
