Go Pikachu!May all yellow-shirted, yellow-feathered, yellow-coloured beings be safe and well!

Day 4, Round 1....goes To Cow....sobs 8th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
As of 5.10am until now, I have failed to catch Cow to put him into the carrier. He's elusive and ferocious at the same time....Here he is, so near and yet so far.There's no way I could catch him this morning. I tried, and he went totally ballistic, claws and jaws. Looks like Plans B, C and D won't even work because they all require me to put Cow into the carrier. Now, I cannot even get him into the carrier. Well, so much for contingency plans....Looks like the Cow h...

The Purest Of Charity 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
I've been quite fascinated with the things Bavani can do and have done ever since I found out this petite girl had been a volunteer zoo-keeper at Zoo Negara and she dares to feed snakes! What courage!Today, as we were manning the booth together, we talked about lots of things.I told Bavani I had learnt from a very devout Hindu friend many years ago that helping animals, for Hindus, is the best way to redeem one's unwholesome karma. He never told me why, though. Bavani said it's...

The Cow Story....the Novelty Is Wearing Out.... 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
My friend, CP, came over this evening to get a tshirt and we got talking, so Cow's medication was delayed till quite late. Throughout our chat, Cow was nearby, trying to attract attention, I think. CP wanted to do some healing on Cow, but he hissed and scratched. Yup, the Cow is back to being the Cow again....So, medication was delayed till quite late.Now, Cow was nowhere to be found. I went out and called him. He finally came...I don't know where from. I want...

Updates On Karuna 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Ref: http://www.myanimalcare.org/2011/07/old- dog-badly-injured.htmlI have spoken to the vet, but the line was really bad, so this is what I've got.The X-Rays looked good because it did not reveal any major damage. The fact that Karuna is eating is, of course, a very good sign. However, her lower quarter is extremely weak, and this cannot be diagnosed yet. She did stand up, though. The vet thinks there could still be some sort of minor paralysis, but there is no cert...

Ken Huber rescued this dog yesterday, from a grocery store. Apparently, the workers were ill-treating this dog and Ken stepped in. The dog looks like a lost or abandoned pet. It was found in a grocery store in Plaza Damas, Sri Hartamas.With the help of MDDB, Ken has sent the dog to their vet for an evaluation and possible treatment, if any.Ken has requested that I put the dog up for adoption. However, I think the dog could be lost. Here are the photos:

Old Dog, Badly Injured 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Yesterday, someone from the local temple called me. Apparently, a dog had been attacked and bitten by a pack of wild dogs at the playground near the temple and was very badly injured. I was at work all day but I told the person to bring in the dog to our panel vet immediately. By evening, the person still had not sent the dog, and our vet had waited. I found out today that they could not catch the dog....until this afternoon. The vet called me this evening as I was ...

Malaysians In Motion, The Event 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
We started at 9.45am this morning.... My students, Yang Yik and Bavani were a big help.Here we are... Irwin, who very much inspired me to write "Make Time While the Sun Shines" (especially the part about...ahem, punctuality) came by to give moral support. He collected some of my Time books to give to his friends (yes, those who are always late for class!)Luckily I had a Size 40 in my car for Yang Yik. Good fit. There was no tshirt sales today, but everybody liked this...

Malaysians In Motion 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Today is going to be a long day, and hopefully, it'll be a productive and rewarding one. One of my former students has organised this event called "Malaysians in Motion" where the theme is.....And it's also about standing up for what you believe in even if you are standing alone. That's their catch-phrase. AnimalCare has been invited to open a booth. No money transactions, so no fund-raising and no tshirts. Just promoting the awareness that even if you are st...

How To Give A COW A Pill (written With Some Confidence Now) 7th Jul 2011, by AnimalCare
Day 3 Round 1 goes to yours truly!!Looks like the carrier-trick is working, and instead of Cow developing resistance to the trick (which we thought he would), he seems to understand that's how things are going to be and he's relenting/cooperating....OR, I'm just pushing my luck and dreaming?Never mind.....it's moments that matter. If it doesn't work, we have Plans B, C and D in store.So, this morning, it was breakfast as usual first. After everyone had eaten, I first took out the pil...
