"Do We Have A Choice?" (new Book!) 2nd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
I have written a new book, entitled "Do we Have a Choice?". It has 19 chapters and 18 are dedicated to encouraging the reader to EAT LESS MEAT; not become a vegetarian, but just to EAT LESS MEAT. One chapter talks about other forms of cruelty like vivisection, etc. The book has been reviewed by two people, and they have found it to be "non-dictative and non-condemning" (which I'm glad for as it was written in that manner too!).I already have a sponsor for the book and we will be going to print a...

Injured Mother-Dog From Klang (Joanne's Rescue) 2nd Aug 2011, by AnimalCare
Joanne Lim called me on Friday evening (I was actually watching Harry Potter at that time!), requesting urgent help for an injured dog.

Our vet was also closing already. So, Joanne called MDDB and currently the dog is at MDDB's vet. Joanne has requested financial assistance to help in the cost o...

What’s The Matter, Miss Cotton? 2nd Aug 2011, by Second Chance
Something is definitely missing during our short trip to the shelter last Sunday.Yes, it is the infectious big wide grin by Miss Cotton.
