OUR WILD NEIGHBOURS: DUGONG
Once they were the legendary mermaids of the ocean.
Meet the graceful dugongs (Dugong dugon).
Another name for these aquatic herbivores is the ‘sea cow’, as they feed on a diet of vegetation - mainly seagrass - at a rate of up to 50kg a day.
Dugongs do not have fins, which easily distinguishes them from other marine mammals, especially the dolphin, despite being similar in size and shape to some degree.
Dugongs love the warm shallow waters, and if you are lu...

THE REAL ISIS
When we met this Isis, a 10 pound cat who was discarded by her family, we thought long and hard about whether or not to change her name. Should she continue to enjoy this special name given to her by the family who once loved her? Should she share her name with a terrorist group responsible for so much violence?
In the end we decided the name belongs to her. She epitomizes gentleness, patience, love and forgiveness. She's feeling like herself again, very happy with her new family...

SMILE! ALIEN AND HERSHEY STRIKE A POSE
A few weeks ago, we introduced Alien - a Hermann’s tortoise – to another tortoise, Hershey. Despite the size difference, Alien was not pleased by Hershey’s presence and started to show territorial behaviour by shell-ramming Hershey. Alien has since calmed down and learnt to co-exist with Hershey.
Here they can be seen ‘posing’ for a photo whilst enjoying their daily feed of greens!
The Hermann’s tortoise is native to Southern Europe, where t...

Puppies & Kittens Vs Mirrors
17th Mar 2015, by PetFinder.my
The mirror test is an experiment used to determine whether animals can recognize their own reflections. It's also the main indicator of self-awareness in animals. Oh, and it's pretty cute, too.
These dogs and cats may fail the mirror test, but they succeed at what's really important: being absurdly adorable.
If you are feeling bored, you can try the above stunt with your mirror too. Just don't let anyone see you doing it.
And if your mirror is missing an adorable pet, get one now at htt...

Today we received a desperate phone call, when our volunteers reached there, we found it in the drain, weak, old and blind.
The reporters asked sadly whether it can leave peacefully.
We held back our tears as we send it to the vet for its last sleep(PTS).
Thank you Mr Yong and family for RM100 donation and dog food for ISPCA.
