Drumrolll…..the ARMY GREEN Colour!! 1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
Finally….the supplier was so accommodating, they mixed six army green shades and 2 cobalt blues for us to choose from!
Here they are….
Hmm…now, they seem to look almost the same, but no, they are all quite different.
So, we took it out into the sun to get a better and sharper look…
To be fair, the priority is Army Green as it won by one vote (remember?) and the two shades of cobalt blue weren’t nice too.
I thought no 560 (covered by the supplier’s thumb) was ...

Updates On 1st Aug 2013 1st Aug 2013, by SPCA Singapore
We received a call about an injured community cat and our Animal Rescue Officer (ARO) arrived on the scene to find this. Near the flower bed at the void deck of Block 837 Woodlands Street 82 was an adult white and brown local cat. But this girl had an unusual injury - there was a rubber band tied around her left front leg. Our ARO brought her back to our shelter, and our consultant vet gave her a thorough check. The rubber band appears to have been wound over twice.
She may be injured, but s...

Body Language In Cats 1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
Chen shared this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bvsfB7sf4QU
No wonder, I’ve often noticed that none of the cats like a belly rub when they do “tummy up” and I’ve actually stopped doing the belly rub (I believe it’s dogs who like it!). What I do is to speak to them and acknowledge their trust, maybe rub their thigh instead. This video says all they want is a scratch on the head.
Lots to learn, folks! And about time too, since they understand us better than we do...

The Vegan Pet Controversy In Australia 1st Aug 2013, by AnimalCare
While it is entirely possible for some humans to be vegetarian or even vegan, we believe that cats are carnivorous while dogs are also carnivorous (but need a little bit more plant food than cats). However, we are not any expert on nutrition, so we always advise that you seek the professional opinion of a vet or pet-nutritionist on what is best for your pet.
This is reproduced, with permission, from the Vegetarian Society of Singapore (http://www.vegetarian-society.org/):

Dear all
I need to clarify my message on Lek Lek and Sonny’s unknown fate. It is highly unlikely that they would have been killed by dog meat foodies for their meat. I have been assured that dog meat eaters only go for older puppies, not adult dogs.

SAVE 85% FEEDING STRAY DOGS
www.harmonyfund.org
You guessed right. There's not really a "sale" but sometimes a sense of humor helps. We are indeed suffering from an 85% drop in donations during the month of July.
Summer does bring us so many blessings, but it's a bit of a tough time to raise funds. We haven't been able to respond to as many pleas for help as normal, but tonight, we took a little leap of faith and sent a small donation to Romania to feed these dogs.
Here's hoping that August...
