WE NEED YOUR STUFF 25th Aug 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
POPIKO MAIL
Dear peeps,
its been quite some time since I've reached out to you all.
Those who have been long with us will know that it was I who started the first entry in this blog appealing for help.

Anyways, I have been busy managing the people who run MDDB and this can be a very challenging task.
It saps all my energy and that is why I have had very little, or no, time at all to blog.

Semenyih Puppy Update 25th Aug 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
Hi,
Remember the Semenyih puppy that was so fierce that it was difficult to handle him?
http://malaysiandogsdeservebetter.blogspot.c om/2011/08/semenyih-puppy.html
Well, we've been told by his fosterer that he is doing well and receptive towards people now.
This was not the case when we went to the clinic to get him last week or when we had visited him soon after his rescue.
He nearly chomped our fingers off and we had to get the vet and vet assistant to help put him into a carrier f...

MIMI CHITTA NEEDS A TEMPORARY HOME 25th Aug 2011, by Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better
Our noseless dog MIMI CHITTA is well and ready to be discharged from the vet. We now have to look for a place for her as we are unsure if we want to send her back to where she was so brutally maimed.
Her owner says she is willing to take MIMI CHITTA back but told us that we should give her away if someone else wants her.
However, they want MIMI CHITTA's mother MA BARKER back.
MIMI CHITTA has learnt to cope with her disability and eats well.
MIMI CHITTA - cannot be confined so she's seen her...

Are You Wearing Dog Leather? 25th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
This is from PETA:Where does the leather for purses, shoes, and belts come from? Many of us may think that we know the answer but don't know what animal the skin was taken from — or how that animal suffered. The truth is quite disturbing. Undercover investigators have provided PETA with horrifying photographs of dogs in Thailand as they were being slaughtered so that their skins could be tanned for leather. The photographs show terrified dogs sitting in crowded cages, awaiting their own ...

Atrocious Delicacies In China 25th Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Whenever there is atrocious news about food, it always seems to come from China.A friend sent me photos (which I shall not reproduce here, because it took me two days before I dared look at the photos - you can probably google for them if you do a word search on "waxed dogs and cats in China").Yes, apparently, the Chinese in China capture dogs and cats, wax them and sell them as "delicacies" and the Chinese consumers eat them.The photos are....very heart-wrenching, more so, to dog- and cat- love...

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...

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.
