Updates On 27th Feb 2012
27th Feb 2012, by SPCA Sarawak
A job is only considered completed and the reward deserved when it's carried out from start till end. A cat hoarder called in the morning claiming to be an animal lover but wanted to hand over 50+ cats to the shelter. Got rude when asked why did she start hoarding in the first place and did not neuter them. It was obvious she considered her duties to the cats over when I mentioned that the shelter is full of cats which desperately need homes and may have to reduce the numbers by euthanasia.

Please Do NOT Do This
26th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
So far, I’ve had two receipts (with form) placed in my postbox, asking for subsidy claims but I do not even know who the requestors are. They had not contacted me prior to making the claim.
Our subsidy claims are given according to procedures listed here: http://myanimalcare.org/subsidy/

Once approved, get the treatment done and pay the vet.
2. Send the original receipt and duly filled form to me by post.
Once received, within 2...

Female Street-Cat Spayed (Mary Yap’s)
26th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Mary Yap sent this female cat who frequents the vicinity of her office area for spaying a few days ago, and we have sponsored RM100 for it.
She sure looks a lot like Indy (she even has the same Harry Potter lightning marking on the forehead, just like Indy)!
Done!
I know this is a long shot, but if you’d like to adopt this cat, please contact Mary on 012-3282260. Mary says the cat is very friendly and “manja”. She comes easily to people and that was how Mary managed to catc...

Our Ex-Sporo Cat, Puteri, Having A Time Of Her Life Now
26th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
Puteri was a street cat, picked up by Mary Yap from Taman Tun.
Puteri was initially diagnosed as having bad flu but later, it was found that the spot on her nose was a sporotrichosis infection. Puteri was treated for many months (we subsidised the treatment while Mary sponsored the boarding), and subsequently Puteri was adopted by Nor, Mary’s colleague.
Puteri is now best of pals with Chombi, Nor’s other cat (who is FIV-positive).
Here are some photos:
Puteri
As beautiful as ev...

Lilian Tong’s Kitty, “Girl”, Is Doing Well!
26th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
From Lilian:
Good morning Dr. Chan!
Sorry for the late reply. It was a longggg day yesterday! After kitty’s checkup I went around town searching for a cage, hot water bottle, litter box.
After getting the cage, the litter-box and all her stuff, before I could set everything up, I needed to clean the apartment with clorox just in case the kitty left any fleas (because she was playing around on my floor mat/carpet/old clothes), upon the vet’s advise. I made sure I mopped o...

Eye Injuries In Pets Are True Emergencies!!!
26th Feb 2012, by Dr Rayya's Online Veterinary Journal
It has still been very steady at work which is great for a change. I have had a very interesting case load from routine general anaesthetics and dentals to working up a parrot with a non-weightbearing lameness to a behavioural consultation dealing with inter-dog aggression within the same household. Ah my line of work definitely never gets boring.
If anything, my poor brain cells are usually swamped with high energy demands and threatened with information overload.
When my brains ...

Zippy News!
25th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
I’ll let the photos tell the story….
Tabs also started putting out her paw to “feel” for the latch (just as Pole did yesterday). This little girl learns fast!
I do zips. I don’t need to undo latches.
This morning, Cleo zipped out and ran upstairs. I didn’t know why. Then, I found out – you know how in the old house, Cleo was my husband’s alarm clock? She would wake him up every single day? Well, she just wanted to wake him up again. Is that...

Let’s Talk About Food Again, Shall We?
25th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
So, we’ve been talking a lot of the benefits of raw food and home-cooked for our animals, but granted, some of us cannot home-cook, while some of our pets refuse to take home-cooked and what more, raw, especially after they have been on kibble or wetfood for years.
I’d like to adopt the moderate stand, and also to “listen” to what our pets want. Animals, believe it or not, may not be able to read the ingredients list, but sometimes, they actually KNOW what is good for the...

Hermione Is Adopted!! (Chen Chen’s)
25th Feb 2012, by AnimalCare
From Chen:
Hi Kah Yein,
Affinity sure is strange. After I posted Hermione’s profile on Petfinder, my inbox was flooded with requests for her. This is a very nice welcome after being abandoned. Anyway, at the end, she went to a family today that has another kitten that she can play with and grow up together. It’s a loving family with lots of laughter and the family takes the extra care to provide the best for their cats – stay indoors, quality food, lots of toys, lots of play an...
