Kitten Adoption Drive This Weekend - 10th/11th September 24th Aug 2011, by Noah's Ark CARES

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...

KT Tan has this to share. I think it's really, really good. Thanks, KT.Grieve Not For Our Pets Who Have DepartedFor those of us who like animals... there is always the heartache when a dear one passes away due to illness, accident or old age. Sometimes we wonder whether a beloved sick pet should be kept alive as long as possible if there is no cure and not be put to sleep or should we put it to sleep to spare our beloved pet any further pain and suffering if there are any. And when o...

Not Sporo Or Crypto, But Something Else.... 23rd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Peggy Tiong was eager to start Ginger on Itraconazole since our vet said Ginger had Cryptococcosis. So, I had already ordered the medicine from our other vet and it had arrived today.So, Peggy brought Ginger over to collect the medication. However, our other vet took a swab (by scraping) of the wound and upon examination under the microscope, he said there was no evidence of Sporo or Crypto.He said it appeared to be either an allergy or mast cell tumour (probably malignant). See this: ...

Only-One And Mum, Orange, At The Vet's 23rd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
After Karuna's visit to the vet's, I went back home, grabbed my carrier and went off to fetch Wei Leng and June, with Only-One and her mum, Orange, in tow. By the way, Only-One is female. This is Wei Leng. Orange and Only-One are in the carrier. Orange is a lovely cat. We'll check Only-One first. Still a little thin, but the abdomen is quite bloated, probably due to over-eating, what with AD and mother's milk. She cannot be dewormed yet as it has not been one week since the l...

Snowy Day 6 23rd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Updates from Agnes:Snowy is certainly improving. The moment he saw me, he stood up, mewed a few times and then lied down, very relaxed. He has been eating very well from yesterday. He was given the RetroMAD once yesterday evening. The vet told me that another X-ray is necessary after Snowy is on the RetroMAD for a week as the fluid is likely to build up again. Before that, he will extract any fluid that is still remaining. He will continue to give the antibiotic and diuretic injections. He ...

Karuna Goes To The Vet's 23rd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
My mum called this morning to say there were blood stains on where Karuna lies on the floor, so it's off to the vet's for Karuna today. She has wounds again, and this time, it's due to pressure on her body as a result of lying down too much. Her fur was shaven, and the wound cleaned with water. There was also already a layer of "air" between the skin and the flesh, and this skin would have to be cut. Karuna was muzzled and the vet proceeded to cut the skin off. Can't use any sedat...

By ROSCOE G. BARTLETT BEFORE I was elected to Congress, I was a physiologist at the Navy’s School of Aviation Medicine.

The Fable Of The Porcupine 23rd Aug 2011, by SPCA Selangor
It was the coldest winter ever. Many animals died because of the cold. The porcupines, realizing the situation, decided to group together to keep warm. This way they covered and protected themselves; but the quills of each one wounded their closest companions. After awhile, they decided to distance themselves one from the other and they began to die, alone and frozen. So they had to make a choice: either accept the quills of their Companions or disappear from the Earth. Wisely, they decided ...
