Updates On 26th Jul 2013 26th Jul 2013, by SPCA Singapore
We found this boy (now named Zac by his loving family) just over a year ago. Our Animal Rescue Officer (ARO) had received a call from the public and arrived on the scene to meet with a kind finder, who informed him that he had found a male Husky pup tied to a tree and subject to the elements. The finder had reason to believe that the dog belonged to a neighbour, and our ARO left a note at the alleged owner's home after getting no response, asking for the owner to contact us when he/she returned....

Please Exercise Philanthropic Prudence When You Donate 26th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
It is rather coincidental that we received these two pieces of news yesterday and this morning and we would like to share it with all of you as it is a good reminder to all of us that as donors (or in our case, as a society that gives out subsidies), we must exercise philanthropic prudence, ie. to be careful and wise in giving out donations, to ensure that our hard-earned donations are properly and ethically used. As a donor, your money is also hard-earned and given in trust, so you might also w...

For Cat TNRM-Ers – This Is A “drop Trap” 26th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Shared by a rescuer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3SydX7jn ox8
It sure is easier than my ribbon method!
Beware of the tail, though.
It boasts of 4 advantages, but I think the part about trapping whole families, ie. “trapping the mum-cat without leaving the kittens behind” is a good point.
Our disclaimer holds.
My way:

A Healthful Vegan Diet (go Meatless Today And Save Some Animals!) 26th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Now, whenever I speak about eating less meat, there will always be the counter arguments, ie. so-and-so is vegetarian but is so unhealthy and weak, so-and-so is vegetarian, practises yoga but dropped dead at 40, etc.
Yes, there are always the exceptions. Nothing is fool-proof. Surely we know this. There is no elixir or secret formula that works for everyone.
We just have to give an idea a try and see if it works for us. But here is the thing, if we already do not believe in it, then forget about...

A Quick-And-Easy Meatless Meal 25th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Step One: See what you have in your little vegetable garden.
Taiwan kau-keh….good stuff.
The vege they put in otak-otak. Can do too.
(Can someone please tell me the name of that vege!!)
Basil and curry leaves. Yes, can do as well.
Now, as you cut the young stems of the vegetable plant, immediately replant (don’t deprive the poor young shoot of the needed carbon dioxide and oxygen please – that would be cruelty to plants!). Snip off all the leaves but leave the tip with the...

Otto The Tight-Rope Walker And Indy The Spider-Cat, And… 25th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Otto the Shrew is a regular visitor to Bunny’s Place, especially in the evenings. In fact, he is so agile, he even manages to get to the pantry and nibble on all the remaining kibbles without being caught by the 3 titans, Tiger, Tabs, Cleo or Pole.
You’ve got to give credit to the Shrew Squad training, and of course, the KGB trainers.
This evening, Otto came as usual, but he decided to….well, entertain us a bit….
…with this tight-rope skills!

Dinner At The Patio 25th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Nowadays, it’s not Bunny’s Place making the dinner calls but the patio.
At around 4.30pm, the Patio Family sends a representative to call for dinner.
And since the call is made, Bunny’s Place is awakened and they too want to be fed.
At Bunny’s Place, there is not much of a problem when it comes to eating. Everyone waits at his or her spot, quite patiently too. Those who cannot wait, jump onto the slab – it’s an understanding amongst them. And after eating, ev...
