Rulers Who Made A Difference 10th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
While it’s true that we, the ordinary people at the grassroots must do our part in helping animals and this means each one of us, there are still things which will reach a dead-end unless certain laws are changed and in its place, kinder laws are implemented and enforced.
For example, each time we meet with any politician over animal welfare issues, we only have ONE request: Please spare our ear-notched animals. The answer has always either been a “No” or a “We’ll l...

Here is another heartwarming sharing from one of our readers:
It takes a lot of courage to protect innocent animals. You remember (name withheld)? She’s the ones with many rescued cats. Ever since I’ve known her she’s really afraid of dogs (turned white and pale) even the smallest dog came near her at the vet. But she had seen me with dogs i.e. rottweilers, pit-bulls etc.
She moved to a new place and she started feeding a stray dog – we discussed re the issue on th...

Some things are destined to be... and today this statement proves itself very true.
Dean was riding his mountain bike when this cute little poodle, who was clearly lost, came running up to him. The dog also had a fracture to his hind leg.
He notified the SPCA about the dog and brought him over to us in hopes of finding its owner. Dean even designed his own posters to help trace this dog to its owner.
The owner was never found and Dean came to our shelter today to claim the little poodle and g...

Daffodil has been coming to the grille more often…
And she sits right outside the grille.
We think she has decided to be the Patio Family representative to make friends (and peace) with Bunny’s People.
Will Bunny’s People reciprocate?
Mr G came to say “hello” from above this evening.
Indy is always on the lookout for such “visits”.
Hey, Mr G!
I hope eventually Bunny’s People will get used to seeing the outside cats on the ledge.

What Is Happening In Other Countries 9th Apr 2013, by AnimalCare
We are generally told that females can be neutered at around 4.5 months of age while it is advisable to wait for males to be at least 8 months before getting them castrated (to decrease the chances of having urinary problems later on due to early castration). However, vets differ on this.
This is a sharing by a reader of what is happening in Darebin, a suburb in Melbourne.
DAREBIN pet owners who follow their vet’s advice not to desex puppies and kittens until they’re five or six mont...
