The BIG Blanket Arrives!! 5th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
This is the BIGGEST blanket we’ve ever sewn and we’d like to thank our supportive and generous readers, Elvis, Morton and friends, for their very kind donation to our Fund for the animals.
Here are some photos:
That’s Ma Belle, Gigi and Elvis (yes, he’s a dog!).
This is their specially-made sofa bed. The blanket measures 8 ft by 12 ft. That’s about double of a king-size!
Morton is a sporo-survivor who is also FIV+. He’s been giving a lot of support to the m...

Pole’s Very First Trip Out Of Bunny’s Place 4th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
We have lived in this house for more than 4 years and today is Pole’s very first sanctioned trip out of Bunny’s Place (that’s excluding the time when we moved in and she escaped from Bunny’s Place by scaling the Stargate and went on to several neighbouring roofs, yes, a totally heart-stopping event for me, but she finally came back!).
Today, the contractor came to fix the back door grille. The bottom part of the grille had rusted terribly (thanks to our sprayin...

FEEDING THE STREET ANIMALS IN EXTREME HEAT
In Avsallar, Turkey the temperature is 45 degrees celcius (113 degrees Fahrenheit). It's just awful.
Volunteer Manuela Wroblewski spends 6 hours walking in that heat, bringing food and water to hundreds of dogs and cats who light up when they see her approach.
"I thought I was passing out today as it is so, so hot," Manuela Wroblewski said.
Each month, we need to send at least $2,000 for this mission, and we send more for spay/neuter as often as w...

Thong-Mang, Parvo Tough-Cookie 4th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
The day after I played with Thong-mang, she went off food and had some diarrhoea. Not taking any chances, her caregiver brought her to the vet and Thong-mang was diagnosed with parvovirus.
Being so small and estimated at barely 7 weeks now, the caregiver (a very experienced dog owner) was very cautious and had not got her vaccinated yet (which was wise as vaccination also carries risks). Thong-mang probably carried the virus in her (perhaps transmitted from her mother) and the disease cho...

Our Little House “doggie” 3rd Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
It’s Daffodil!
She has become very “doggie”-like now. She accompanies us everywhere, waits for us outside the bathroom, comes upstairs and guards us when we sleep in a typical dog-like manner, sleeping inside the room facing outwards towards the door.
Daffodil has decided to be our “dog”!
I’ve always said that if cats could protect their humans (as dogs do), we’d have 65 lethal “weapons” protecting us (that’s 13 multiplied by (4 sets o...
