20th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
Here’s an incentive for all who might want to lose weight: http://www.meatfreemondays.com/lose-t he-meat-lose-more-weight/
An excerpt:
Want to lose weight? Confused by the plethora of diets and dietary advice on offer? There is a simple way to eat yourself thinner: cut back on the meat.

Dog Carries Cat Home
19th Jul 2015, by PetFinder.my
Which conclusion would you arrive at? =)
a) The dog is so intelligent it knows how to carry the reluctant cat home to its owner!
b) The lazy cat is so intelligent it has successfully trained its pet dog to chauffeur it home!
Whoever the superior furry mastermind is, we are sure both of them are a bundle of joy to have within the household.
Adopt one (or better yet, two!) now from the thousands of cute homeless animals at http://PetFinder.my and we're sure you'll be busy filming them pulling ...

Another Big Cow-Indy Fight
19th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
The last “big” fight they had was when Indy swiped at Cow’s right eye and left him one-eyed for a few months. If you had been following the blog, that was certainly one of the most challenging tasks I have ever had to face.
And during the time when Cow’s third eyelid was sewn up (that took 22 days, I think) and later, he went through a second round, but this time was without the third eyelid operation, there were no fights in Bunny’s Place.
And the reason is obviou...

Furry Japanese Sea Bunnies
Sea slugs aren’t exactly creatures you’d consider to be adorable, but Japan’s Twittersphere has just rediscovered what is probably the cutest sea slug ever – Jorunna parva, a sea slug that looks like a fluffy bunny.
This tiny sea slug’s bunny ears are actually rhinophores, or chemosensory scent/taste organs that help them detect chemicals in the water and make their way across the ocean floor. They can be found from the Indian Ocean to the Philippines to Ja...

Indy’s Many Adventures
19th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
Ever since Indy has proved to us that he isn’t waiting to escape to someone’s roof, he has been getting daily trips out.
Indy will always be Indy. He lives up to his name.
Why is this plank loose? Who made it loose?
Wait, what is going on out there? What’s that noise?
Ginger watches from a safe place.
Wait the humans are getting worried about me. I’ll just sit down and pretend to be contented.
He he…I’m off again.
From here, I can easily ju...

Zurik’s Hari Raya
19th Jul 2015, by AnimalCare
During the month of Ramadhan, Mr Zurik did not come for breakfast. He only came for dinner, which was around 3.30pm or 4.00pm. Sometimes, he came late, at around 5.00pm. But he definitely turned up for dinner.
Not for breakfast.
I was very sure he had decided to “go home” to where he had originally come from. We’ve followed him on his routes before. From our house, he goes up the road, then he disappears into one of the houses.
We’ve asked a neighbour (...

Adopted Dog Alerts Police & Saves Owner
GERMANTOWN - Thanks to man's best friend and some quick police work, a Germantown, Missouri, woman is alive.
Early Friday morning, John Boy, a black labrador, was found running around the Autumn Ridge neighborhood off of County Line Rd. in Germantown.
"He stood there and barked a little bit, then I rolled down my window and called to him. Then he wagged his tail and got more friendly until I got out of my car. And then he ran a little bit," said Jeff Go...
