Willy-O Seems A-Ok Now!
18th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
There was whining at the patio this morning and no prizes for guessing who it was.
Yes, it was Mr Zurik. He was just sitting on Timmy’s chair and whining. And whining. Loudly too.
I think he just wanted attention OR maybe to prove a point.
So anyway, I fed everyone and everyone was happy. It was the whole gang – Daffodil, Rosie, Ginger, Vincent (now he eats with everyone again), Mr G and Mr Zurik.
Then it was Willy’s turn.
Medicine first. Plop, plop…okay, no problems ther...

YOU SENT THEM FOOD TODAY
www.HarmonyFund.org
Thanks to our supporters, a week's food just went out to the dogs at the Gladno Polje in Sarajevo. This shelter is in very bad shape and we are relieved that it will close in the coming months as the municipality does not care for the dogs here and they would be safer elsewhere. Now efforts must be made to find other placements for the 96 dogs here.

Responsible Cat Feeding (from Cat Welfare Society, Singapore)
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Please share widely (applies to dog-feeding too): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSTHS1Y7BGw &feature=youtu.be
We’ve received email complaints from a few people regarding irresponsible dog-feeding in certain areas in the Klang Valley. The people who wrote to us were reporting these cases out of goodwill because if such news gets to the council, you know what will happen to the poor dogs. And why? It is because the humans who feed them had not been responsible and their actions make t...

Mr Zurik, Heidi, Tabs And Little Elmo
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
After I finished cleaning Willy’s bum, Mr Zurik came again to antagonise Vincent. I must have chased him off at least 3 times this evening alone because he was making too much noise and I was afraid the neighbour would be disturbed. But he is very persistent and keeps coming back.
You see what I mean?
Can you imagine the racket that accompanies the aggression between these two?
I finally had to resort to splashing water to break up the cold war.
But Mr Zurik keeps coming back.
That’...

Willy’s Soothing Bum Gel!
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
After feeding everyone, I decided I’d try my luck at cleaning Willy’s bum and applying the lemongrass soothing gel.
This is my first-aid kit. It consists of the lemongrass gel, Dermacyn (for cleaning the wound area) and cotton pads.
Oh…and Halo too, because…
…I needed a tasty enough snack to lure Willy to stand up so that I can clean his bum (that’s his anus and scrotum).
It took a few rounds of treats to keep him standing up. I could see it wasnR...

Mr Zurik Keeps Willy Company?
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
At least that’s what I thought!
I rushed back from work today as I was a little worried about Willy being left alone for 8 hours.
The first thing I did was to clean up his cage and I noticed he had well-formed stools and just traces of pastiness. The faeces are definitely firming up.
I fed him his medication too. As before, he tensed up and tightened his muscles so grabbing the scruff of his neck was a problem again.
But right after feeding him his medicine, Willy had a visitor.
It was Mr...

A Visit To Shibuya Train Station (Hachiko’s Station)!
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
My son flew to Haneda International Airport recently and visited Shibuya train station. That’s the very train station that loyal Hachiko waited for his master for many, many years.
Sobs, I know…I cried buckets after watching Richard Gere’s movie. I don’t think I have ever cried as much after watching any movie in my entire life because I remember still crying buckets when I went to sleep that day.
Anyway, my son said the whole town is abuzz with Hachiko momentos.
Here are...

Born in our shelter on 1 June 2013, these six tiny babies went home with one of our loving fosterers for a good bout of dedicated care. Mommy rabbit came to us with two other rabbits, found abandoned at the lift lobby of Block 214, Lorong 8 Toa Payoh. Fortunately, she had a smooth delivery and the babies fared well under our fosterer’s care. The babies are growing strong, mommy is doing well, and they are now back in our shelter and ready for adoption. These babies are very young and will need...

A Case Of Using An RIP-Cat To Solicit Donations
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
We subsidised the treatment of Tuah in November 2012: http://myanimalcare.org/2012/11/29/medical- and-neutering-subsidy-for-rescued-cat-in-melaka-no ra-faswanti-bt-ibrahims/

We have advised Nora to inform the said organisation of Tuah’s demise. Let’s hope it is just a case of miscommunication and la...

Willy, The Still Water And Street-Fighter???
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
And how is Willy? Oh, he decided to bite me today, so giving him his medicine was a bit of a struggle. And Willy is a very smart cat. Since yesterday, he had mastered the art of tightening the muscles around his neck so that I cannot get a good grip of the scruff of his neck. There was barely any skin to grab onto since he had tightened his muscles there. So, it was very difficult to get a grip.
He did the same thing again this morning, and snarled at me as well, showing his teeth. I know, I kno...

Guess Who Came After Breakfast?
17th Jul 2013, by AnimalCare
Yes, no more surprises…Heidi came over to say hello after breakfast today.
I was preparing to go to work when I spotted a little tabby at the grille. Indy was already on the defensive (look at the slant of his head).
Tabs meets Heidi.
Heidi went to the kitchen.
I thought she might be hungry so I offered some food.
But she didn’t like kibbles. Only wetfood.
This time, I think she was quite hungry as I could hear her growling as she ate (only the wetfood).
Her colour and markin...

WOLF FAMILY SAVED IN SERBIA
www.HarmonyFund.org
We're working with an extraordinary rescuer in Serbia. This is a land where wolves are regularly hunted. Surviving pups are "raised" by hunters who save them for future hunts. But not this time...
The wolves you see here has just been rescued by Dejan, our hero on the ground in Serbia. Dejan lives very, very modestly trying to find enough food for the wolves and for the 160 dogs who have found unconditional love at his shelter.
