Dog Lovers Rally In Defence Of A Breed Of Their Own 26th Oct 2011, by AnimalCare
Mrs Wong sent me this last week:Ref: http://www.theage.com.au/victoria/d og-lovers-rally-in-defence-of-a-breed-of-their-own -20111020-1ma99.html#ixzz1bNX12v8ZPlease click on the link above and read it. It tells about an Aussie veterinarian, who, after 20 years of practice, is beginning to question the necessity (or not) and the rightness (or wrongness) of putting down certain breeds of dogs just because they are banned. It also says that there is no scientific backing that these dogs a...

The Taming Of Ice 25th Oct 2011, by Second Chance
The fierce and furious Ice is one of the 20+ dogs dumped at the shelter a few weeks ago. She is forever growling and snarling especially when anyone goes near her, probably due to the abuse she suffered in the past. Ice was extremely scrawny when she was dumped at the shelter.. Still skinny now, but it is our mission to fatten her up. We also hope that in time Ice will learn to trust human again.. It will be a slow process but with lots of patience and time, it is possible.~Ice is extremely wary...

On The Homefront 25th Oct 2011, by AnimalCare
I thought I'd be able to spend a quiet day at home and start packing for the big move, but the 5-kitten case got me out of the house. And, while I was at PAWS, I met a really techno-savvy guy who explained why I was having so much problems with my new smartphone (yes, I took THIS long to change over to a smartphone thinking I could have a better phone-camera compared to my trusty Nokia from the dinosaur era, and thinking I could have mobile network and receive emails on the go). The verdict is, ...

Found! - Fosterer For 5 Abandoned Kittens 25th Oct 2011, by AnimalCare
I called Cheang immediately after receiving that phonecall from our vet and Cheang agreed to foster the 5 kittens.Cheang doesn't drive out of her "safety zone" (something I totally empathise with since I too have the worst of the worst possible sense of direction), so she asked me to send them over to PAWS and she would meet me there. So I drove to the clinic to get them...Gee...they are so cute!They looked hungry, so I thought I'd get them to PAWS first, then feed them. I asked our v...

The Blueys Are Fine And Dandy (morning Updates) 25th Oct 2011, by AnimalCare
Last night, I was only able to see the photographs that Andy sent at about 10.30pm. This is no thanks to my streamyx...sigh. Ever since unifi came about, streamyx has really slackened. I'm getting unifi at my new place. Anyway, I was a bit concerned when I saw the stand-fan being put near to the table. The Blueys love to climb AND Baloo is fascinated by fan blades. Andy had told me yesterday that he was worried the air-cont might be too cold for the Blueys, so he got them a fan inste...

Updates On Mickey The Miracle 25th Oct 2011, by AnimalCare
A miracle...that would be one word to describe Mickey's case. But that miracle, I believe, was caused by a few contributing factors - perseverance, never-give-up attitude, lots of tender loving care, hardwork, spiritual help and last but not least, a belief in some higher force in the universe that decides. However, we cannot simply rely on that higher force to weave its magic. We have to do the work on Earth, too. And this includes the skill of our vets, the financial contribution from our fund...
