The All-Elusive Herbie Was At The Neighbour's!
25th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Aimy texted a few days ago to say she has finally spotted Herbie again - it looks like Herbie has chosen to live with her neighbour now. Herbie is this extremely spunky little kitten (estimated to be about 5 months old) whose rescuer/feeder had to give up for fostering/adoption because Herbie had made her place of work her "home". The boss wasn't too happy about a cat making herself at home at the office, so the feeder asked if I could find a fosterer/rehomer for Herbie. Aimy offered...

A Little Cat And His Caregiver's Perseverance
25th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Mas Ayu shared this:Very recently, I had this experience concerning a one year-old male stray cat which I have been caring for since he was dumped as a very tiny kitten alongside with his brother early last year. They had both looked similar, both white and orange, so having run out of nice boy names temporarily, I had named the brother O/W No.1 and him O/W No.2.Early last week, I had noticed No.2 sleeping on a cardboard box in a corner, not his usual active self and he had not come rushing for ...

Dog With Two Crushed Legs
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
I was at our vet's this evening and overheard an emergency case they handled yesterday evening. Apparently, an owner had brought in her pet dog (not sure whether it's a Golden Retriever or Labrador, but it's one of those) with two crushed legs. The story goes (thus have I heard) that the owner came back and the automatic gate opened. The dog ran out. The owner gave chase but the dog was faster. By the time the owner came back to the house, the dog had returned on its own, but was blee...

For All Dwellers, Great And Small
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
From Mrs Wong:http://theage.domain.com.au/real-estate-news/ for-all-dwellers-great-and-small-20110819-1j0ox.ht mlAs backyards shrink and people work more hours, pets' needs are being factored into housing design.Some architects would think they were barking. But when Madge Alexandra's clients asked her to consider the needs of their dog and two cats when designing their new Northcote house, she was pleased.''Most people want a cat or dog flap in an outside door. But otherwise, it's not common to...

Dog Thefts On The Increase
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Kar Ven shared this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-cana da-14637989What is the world coming to? And what would humans resort to next, all for the sake of raking in more money by victimising the weak and defenseless?You know how it is that we are usually about 30 years behind the West in "catching up" with what they do (which isn't necessary, really, but that's the way of the world due to colonisation).I can only hope that pet thefts will not develop into a crime here.

Rabbits In Need Of Rescue/help
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Mun Ee (t_munee868@hotmail.com) has brought this to our attention: Just now i walked pass this pet store at Pandan Indah. I saw this man looking beside a trash bin. I looked at what he was looking at, to my horror, there were 3 rabbits in a cage. They have very very very bad skin disease and their legs were so weak that they couldn't move. The skin disease was so bad that they don't even look like rabbits. Attached are some pictures of the rabbits. We do not know if the petshop has thrown...

Thirsty Kitty Cat
24th Aug 2011, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
This week I have been blessed with what I call a good cat run. I have had heaps of my geriatric cats come in for checkups or follow-up examinations. While I am usually psyched about seeing my feline friends, they do not share the same sentiment.
They arrive feeling flustered, humiliated and worst of all mortified at being in my consultation room.
I had two main coons today that live in the same household that were brought in at separate times. They both hid under the lid of their dismantled...

A Cat Family And Their New Owners (hopefully!)
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Christine has been writing to me to ask about this stray mother-cat and her kittens who lives around her house. This is Christine's first time learning to care for cats and so I thought a trip to the vet's would be good. At the same time, the cats can go for a check-up, too, since one of the kittens have diarrhoea. So, Christine came to borrow my carrier yesterday, and she managed to catch all three (mother and the kittens) today. That's Christine in yellow and her daughter, Zoey. Zoey says...

Kitten Adoption Drive This Weekend - 10th/11th September
24th Aug 2011, by Noah's Ark CARES
A family of 6 kittens are waiting to find good homes who will love and take care of them for the rest of their lives. We believe it's better to have a loving family as compared to having no family at all.The kittens are 2+mths old, healthy and active, and were rescued from an elderly guardian who can no longer care for them. They are extremely affectionate and love to interact with fosterers. We will rehome the kittens to genuine cat lovers and adopters who have experience handling kittens and c...

More Information On Ginger
24th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
From Peggy, after the visit to the vet yesterday:As regards Ginger, the vet said by the look of the wound, it doesn't look anything like sporo or cryptocococcis. He said the wound is too clean to be it. He cut off all the dirty bits, and scraped a bit off the wound onto the slide, and look under the microscope. What th earlier vet did was, he pressed the slide on the wound, but I could see the slide was all smudge. Could the smudge be stuck with some fungus or spores, is it possible, I really do...
