Updates On 13th Sep 2011
13th Sep 2011, by SPCA Sarawak
You must understand - you will pay to bring your animal to our shelter. Many people seem to be under the misconception that things related to an animal shelter are free. The cost to maintain an animal shelter is incredible. The shelter must pay for food, vet bills, rent, insurance, medication, heat, electric, phone, website, advertising, staff, and hundreds of other things that all businesses have to pay for.

IOI Mall Adoption This Sunday
13th Sep 2011, by Second Chance
Hi all, please please do help spread this to your friends and families. Our shelter is extremely overcrowded and just 3 weeks ago we had more than 20 very sickly dogs dumped at us without any notice. There are just too many of them for us to handle at the moment and as most of us are volunteers that have full time job, we’re not able to give the furry frens the care, attention and love that they deserved. If you or your friend/family members happened to be looking for a pet, please do consider...

Two Baby Kittens And A 15-Year Old Blind Dog
13th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
First thing this morning, as I was preparing Bobby and the adult cats' breakfast, I heard loud mewing from the room...it's the Blueys. They're really smart now and know how to ask for what they want! These two are definitely more demanding than the Sunnies. The Sunnies were....aristo-kittens. A real class act in their own right!So what did I see when I went into the room?Yup, they are acrobats too. We want out! We want out! After Round One of feeding, it's chilling time with Uncl...

This lovely gal was rescued from the pound when Ming Yuet and Uncle Wong were at the DBKL dog pound to rescue another of our naughty dog who were caught when wandering outside. The sight of the tiny, skinny and mangy gal broked Ming Yuet’s heart and she couldn’t leave the pound without taking her along. Ming Yuet affectionately call the lovely gal Jelly =). Jelly has since then been vaccinated. Jelly now has silky fur thanks to the mange jabs. Jelly is estimated to be 10 years old. She h...

It's Nestea Now....
13th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
A few months ago, it was Lipton Tea. Due to pressure from the animal-loving public, Lipton stopped using animal testing. Now, it's Nestea. From PETA:The company that makes Nestea conducts deadly tea experiments that involve poisoning, electrically shocking, surgically mutilating, and decapitating animals. The company has caused animals to suffer simply to investigate the possible health benefits linked to tea products and ingredients, even though the Food and Drug Admini...

The Middening Has Stopped!
13th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://www.myanimalcare.org/2011/08/if-y ou-think-spraying-is-badwait-till.htmlUpdates from my cousin:I'm pleased to report that the middening seems to have stopped. I think what's been going on is a tussle for dominance between the two males. On the one hand, the younger, smaller sized Yevaud who was our first adoptee. And on the other, the tabby Odin, who's older and heavier-set and who looks that he might have strains of a Bengal cat ancestry. (Each of them has a female sidekick and...

My Two Helpers
12th Sep 2011, by AnimalCare
The morning started with litter-box training. But as always, litter-box doubles up as playpen!Baloo has developed this naughty little habit of pressing down on Bagheera' head. Poor Tiger...he doesn't come into the room anymore ever since the Blueys occupied it. But at least he did not run away...he's either in the kitchen, on the piano stool or outside in the porch. Luckily Mary came to help me with all the packing on Saturday. Pre-ordered stocks. Today,...

A few days ago, CP was very concerned that Manja had not been eating and was limping.So, it was off to the vet's: Manja did not dare come out of the carrier, so they had to open the top. Comforting Manja while the vet checks her hind leg. Checking the bones in her paws. The vet did not find anythi...
