The Pole Escapades Continues…
24th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Pole’s in-built mechanism got to work again this morning.
After breakfast and a big clean-up, she jumped onto the gutter ledge to try her luck. One could see in her eyes that she was bent on escaping again.
Previously, there was a gap here, but it’s been sealed off by Ah Keong, the contractor.
Everybody loves the Pole Escapade Shows. Otherwise, life at Bunny’s Place can be pretty boring.
Pole walks the length of the gutter ledge and tries every possible loophole.

Baby Alligator Found In Small Aquarium At Restaurant
24th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Nandhini sent me the photos below at midnight last night. Apparently, a restaurant in USJ is keeping a baby alligator (or crocodile) in a small aquarium. A quick check reveals that this species is protected and it may be breaking the law to keep this poor animal in a small aquarium.
Nandhini has called the Wildlife Crime Hotline at 019-3564194 but was told that this case belongs under the Tiger Alliance and they cannot take any action. They will forward the report to the Wildlife Department wh...

Found – Spitz Mix In TTDI
24th Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
From Koo (below). Please help forward the link.
Dear Dr Chan,
I would appreciate it very much if you could publicise this lost dog case in your AnimalCare blog:
This male dog was found at about 6.30am on Saturday, 21 January 2012 in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur (TTDI). He was very tame, friendly and willingly came to me when I called him. He did not have any collar or dog tag and the vet couldn’t scan any microchip either. The vet has informed that the dog is unneutered, aged abou...

H i there
Seven months ago my husband and I arrived in this wonderful city of
yours. We were so awestruck at the modernity and all the shopping
malls! We moved into a Guest House here in Taman Seputeh for a few
weeks, just to find our feet before we venture off into other Asian
countries. (We are still here)!
At the nearby commuter station (Seputeh), we found a young cat in a
bad shape. Her owner abandoned her on the nearby rubbish dump...

Life And Death Waits For No One – In Loving Memory Of Ah Wong (Hooi Bin’s)
23rd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
It may be Chinese New Year and many superstitious Chinese would go “choi! choi! choi!” at the mention of death, but not for us, because the New Year is just like any other day for us – Life goes on, and life and death waits for no one. If one’s time is up, one goes.
Hooi Bin wrote to me on Christmas Eve 2011. She had just rescued Ah Wong, a stray cat, off the streets two weeks back. Ah Wong looked like he had mange, but it turned out to be more serious than that.
Here is ...

Sponsor-A-Pet-Programme At PAWS
23rd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
I was sourcing a place for the dog that Mahesan wanted to rescue when PAWS’ manager told me about their Sponsor-a-Pet-Programme.
I think it is a really wonderful programme, especially for rescuers who have nowhere else to place their rescues. They can surrender the animal to PAWS and sponsor the animal for the rest of its life, subject to PAWS’ Sponsor-a-Pet-Programme policies.
This is how it works:
The true purpose of this programme is to give the animals a chance to live longer unt...

Sunsuper Dreams Updates!! (Kenyan Dream Is Down To 9th Place)
23rd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Dear Friends,
It is now 3.30pm. I’m not at home, but my friends have just alerted me that the Kenyan Dream has had its votes reduced to 208 (and now, it has risen to 218 in barely ten minutes). It has also dropped from 2nd place to 9th position.
Our votes also got reduced from 3232 to 3000. This means some of our supporters had probably voted twice or multiple times. We urge everyone to please play by the rules. Each person is to vote only ONCE and the best way to help us win is by forward...

A Message From James Blackwell (Sunsuper Dreams Contest)
23rd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
A reader brought to our attention that the prize for the Sunsuper Dreams Contest is actually only AUD5k and not AUD10k as earlier thought.
Here a clarification from James Blackwell himself, the person who nominated us:
Hi Dr Chan! i am writing to inform you that i have realized that the winning money for this month superdream is actually AUD5000 not AUD10000 that i initially thought it would be. As i read their “frequently asked questions ” section, it mentioned that the extra AUD500...

This Is Connie James’ Furkid Family
22nd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
For the last few hours, I have been thinking about that poor little white dog now at the shelter, and all because the person who surrendered the dog doesn’t trust us enough to allow Connie James to adopt the dog. Connie has already agreed to her terms – that she will FOSTER the dog and return the dog to the rightful owner should we succeed in finding the owner, failing which Connie will adopt the dog. I have spoken to the SPCA’s chairperson and she said all they need is for the...

22nd Jan 2012, by PetFinder.my
GONG XI FA CAI.. welcoming the Year of the DRAGON! Ain't it cool if we have dragons as pets? Much less traffic jam riding them to work, and they can cook awesome BBQ with their fiery breath
Remember to secure your pets and ensure that they are properly cared for. May all of you get an abundance of Angpows and cookies (and spare a few for your beloved furries).
Have a great fun holiday and drive safely! =)

Correction: It Is Not 10k, But Only 5k (Sunsuper Dreams Prize)
22nd Jan 2012, by AnimalCare
Dear all,
A reader has just alerted me that the bonus 5k grant is not for the winner with the highest no of votes, but for an Australian charity of their choice, in conjunction with Australia Day this month.
This is taken from the Sunsuper Q&A:
What is the bonus Australia Day Grant:
To celebrate Australia Day, for Round 11 Sunsuper will be awarding an extra grant to a dream of their choosing that benefits an Australian charity, organisation or cause. This decision will be at the sole discret...
