What Plan Are You Brewing, Mr Zurik? 24th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
He’s up to something, I know.
I think he is planning an escape so we are on Code Yellow and high vigilance today.
I “measured” Mr Zurik’s breathing last night while he was asleep. It was 11 breaths for 30 seconds! Previously, it was 15 breaths. While I know this is a very unscientific way of determining whether his breathing is laboured or not, it’s still good that it isn’t 20 or 25, right?
He ate two breakfasts today and I have given him all his medicines. I...

The Day Ginger Got Trapped! 24th Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
It was yesterday.
And it did not happen outside (thank goodness!). It happened in the house, at the patio.
Ginger has been occupying the cage at the patio as his “property” ever since I used it to house Cow (after his dental) and also Bunny (after his dental). That was when Ginger started going in to occupy it.
Before this, nobody went into the patio cage. It was an understanding that that cage is the sick bay. Only sick people went in. Hence, no un-sick person of sound mind would go...

Photos From Soi Dog Foundation's Post 24th Apr 2019, by Soi Dog Foundation
We recently received an early morning call from a monk at a local temple. He’d just found two little pups dumped there – no doubt by an owner who hadn’t bothered to have the mother sterilised and now expected others to pick up the pieces. This is a regular occurrence.
Please join the fight against such cruelty and ignorance by donating at https://bit.ly/Saving_Unwanted_Puppies A small monthly gift from you will not only fund the rescue, medical care and shelter of unwanted pups such as B...

Photos From Soi Dog Foundation's Post 24th Apr 2019, by Soi Dog Foundation
A few months ago we called on our supporters to help find our lovely girl Citra a home. Thanks to YOU, she has found a wonderful home and is living out her #furrytailending in Calgary, Canada. Citra was brought to our shelter after being struck and injured by a vehicle. She was in immense pain until the vets treated her. Although her leg had to be amputated, Citra did not lose her list for life.
Citra is not your average looking street. Her silver coat, golden eyes and sleek ridge back makes h...

Shot Dog Feels A Million Times Better Thanks To Yo.. 24th Apr 2019, by The Great Animal Rescue Chase
SHOT DOG FEELS A MILLION TIMES BETTER THANKS TO YOU!
When this thin hunting dog turned up in Busovaca,Croatia we asked for your help in providing veterinary care to remove the buckshot pellets from his legs, repairing an injured leg and routine care to rid him of ticks and worms. Thanks to all of you, he's now doing wonderfully.
"This is one of those old stories," rescuer Esnaf Mehic of Croatia explains. "Hunters use dogs only as long they are good for something."
But as the old saying goes...

Satupy's Story 24th Apr 2019, by Soi Dog Foundation
Satupy arrived at our shelter with the most horrendous wound circling his neck. Dangerously infected, his injury was life-threatening - but he had nobody to care for him.

Zurik’s Feud With Heidi 23rd Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
For two days now, I have witnessed Heidi bullying Zurik.
The first time, I saw Heidi whack him with her paw. The second time, I saw them both in a stand-off and this time, Zurik wasn’t shying away anymore. He was standing his ground.
Good for you, Mr Z!
This is a neutral-face.
We classify Mr Zurik’s face into three categories which goes with how he is feeling. (1) Pussy-cat face, (2) Neutral face and (3) the KGB face (with the menacing eyes).
This is also a neutral face.
Enjoying ...

Thunder-Cats!! 23rd Apr 2019, by AnimalCare
When I was young, I used to watch a cartoon called ThunderCats. I wonder if anyone remembers this show…
There was thunder this afternoon. Where were all the cats?
I know Zurik is terrified of Thunder. So I put him into the carrier, but he didn’t want that, so I let him find his own safe place and he decided to just do this (photo above). Later, I went upstairs and Zurik accompanied me up as my bodyguard. Whether he needed my company or he was providing me company, I don’t kno...

Whale Video 23rd Apr 2019, by WWF Malaysia
For much of human history, whales have been seen through the mist of their blows 🐳 the glint of their backs as they break the surface of the water or the elegant pulse of their flukes as they descend into the deep ocean beneath. Majestic, isn’t it?
However, whales and dolphins across our planet are facing serious threats. We must act now to protect these amazing creatures, which serve a key role in the ecosystems people depend on. http://wwf.panda.org/?345691/Turning-the-tide
