Hi Dr.Chan,
During one of my trips to FRIM (Forest Research Institute Malaysia) in Kepong, I saw a docile black medium sized kitten (named her Octi). I told Octi to come back again to the same spot next week and I’ll be back with a carrier. She really came back. So we packed her up and made arrangements for her spay...

Updates On 21st Nov 2012 21st Nov 2012, by The Great Animal Rescue Chase
Today we are thankful for all the everyday heroes among us.
Recently an elderly woman in Illinois began feeding two stray dogs. Although she couldn't catch them, she tried to be sure they wouldn't starve.
Then one day, tragedy struck and the littlest dog ran into the road at the wrong moment. With more determination than ever, the woman was able to lure the surviving dog into her garage with food. She called in Ed Kostro, a seasoned rescuer, and he arrived to find more than he expected...

No More Publicising For Fosterers, Only For Adoptions 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Effective today, please be informed that we will no longer be able to publicise for fostering unless it is for our sponsored animals. We will, however, still publicise for adoptions.
The reason is, we can take full responsibility for our sponsored animals, but we cannot do the same for the animals of other rescuers.
Off and on, we encounter cases where some rescuers who ask for fostering help through us do not honour their word of taking back the animals after the agreed period of time. We have ...

Something To Share From The VSS Newsletter – Why Love One But Eat The Other? 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
It’s thanksgiving soon for the westerners and the demand for the poor turkey will heighten. It’s like just over here – when it’s Chinese New Year season, the slaughterhouses go on full swing.
Here is something from the VSS below and there is a link to the PETA message too. Take a look and maybe we could make one for Chinese New Year, eh?
Our message has always been a moderate (hopefully, non-offensive) one: Please let’s eat LESS meat.

RC BabyCat For Etta James And Kittens 21st Nov 2012, by AnimalCare
Etta James’ rescuer requested a fosterer for her (Etta) one day before she gave birth. One of our friends agreed to foster and the whole family (Etta James and her brand new newborns) was transported to this fosterer. Ever since then, the family has thrived under the fosterer’s care.
A few days ago, we needed a fosterer urgently for Chitam, a black kitty. Etta’s fosterer was willing to take Chitam in, so Chitam was transported to her.
Little did we know that Etta James would ta...

Subject: Lovely calico cat looking for a home.
This pretty calico cat was abandoned when the people of the house she was staying in packed up and left the house rather hurriedly.
The girl was left stranded outside an empty locked house – no humans, no food, no love. That was 3 months ago. Since then we have been leaving her dry cat food every time we pass the house when we go for evening walks.
We have n...
