Happy In His New Forever Home - Sparky's Update 21st Oct 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
Sparky's fur has grown back and he has put on quite a fair bit of weight. We are restraining ourselves not to over-feed him too much. He is rather greedy and is constantly looking for food, probably due to his bad experience going hungry. If we don't stop him, he will even rummage through the dustbin – something that he might have done when he was living life as a stray. Currently, I'm giving him Velcote (vitamins for silky coat) and I think its positive effects are showing.When Sparky was fir...

From Rags To Riches - Prince's Update! 19th Oct 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
Prince came as a package along with his mother, Lady – the dog with the badly injured maggot infested ear. When Prince was first rescued, all of two and a half months of age, his ears were chockfull of ticks and was absolutely grimy and filthy. Rescued from an industrial area, he grew up with his fosterer and the fosterer's 2 dogs for almost 2 months. As if life for Prince was not hard enough, he was attacked by a Rottweiler while out on a walk with his fosterer. To read about the attack, plea...

Mei Mei's New Lease Of Life 14th Oct 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
It has been about two months and I'm glad to say that Mei Mei has comfortably settled down in her new environment. My other dog, Chu Chu, is happier these days as she has a little sister to play with. They can go wild when they play in the garden, knocking flower pots over and sending turfs flying.That is why I am unable to leave them together in the garden without supervision. At night, they have to sleep in seperate areas outside the house. As Chu Chu has a bigger covered area in the car porch...

My Visit To Noah's Ark On 13 Sept 2008 - By Suzanne 12th Oct 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
Every animal lover should not miss out on making a visit Noah’s Ark for an enriching experience. In fact, I believe schools should organize educational tours to Noah’s Ark to help instill a love for animals in our younger generation.Boarding the coach at Boon Lay interchange with our bags packed to the brim with treats made us feel as if we’re going for a weekend holiday. The journey itself was a breeze with surprisingly smooth traffic at the Immigration checkpoint. Heading via the 2nd lin...

Noah's Ark Is Meenachi's New Home 5th Oct 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
On July 30, we rescued Meenachi, a dog living on an industrial estate. She had a slash wound on her right hind leg near her abdomen. It was thought that such a clean wound was unlikely to be caused by a machine or motor vehicle accident. Previously, this was how bad her wound was:Meenachi's old wound Remember Uncle R, the kind Malay uncle that carried Meenachi to receive help? The Uncle R that touched hearts and moved us to tears with his selflessness and kindness? Indeed, his story painted a pi...

Back To Basics - SMU PAW Tours Noah's Ark! 30th Sep 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
23 Aug ’08 - 35 people. 1 coach. The same passion. Okay, maybe not all of us shared the same passion then as there were a handful who were a tad fearful of dogs. But that aside, we all boarded the coach with the same readiness and the same enthusiasm. Where were we headed? Noah’s Ark- the animal sanctuary we heard so much about. What were we in for? An experience that we were not going to forget for a long, long time; an experience that we wouldn’t have chance to enjoy back home; an experi...

Some time in the afternoon, Princess and I were on our way to the stables, walk...

Aftermath Of The 13th Sept Tour... 21st Sep 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
It started out as a gloomy morning, with major downpours throughout Singapore. My heart sank as I looked out the window at 9am. I kept praying that it would not put a damper on the one thing I had been looking forward to all week – my trip to Noah's Ark.Thankfully by 11am, the sky gradually cleared. Not long after, people began arriving in groups from 1.15pm onwards and without much of a hassle, we set off at 2pm for Noah's Ark. This was the first time we had 3 buses going to Noah's Ark and it...

Bikers: 17th August 2008 Noah’s Ark Visit 16th Sep 2008, by Noah's Ark CARES
I know that Hart would have loved to come along with us – I really do. Hart was the initial organizer of the very first Noah’s Ark trip for the bikers previously. He was the one who led us to discover an animal haven we thought didn’t exist any longer – a sanctuary of lush greenery and boundless space for dogs, cats and horses to live happily, and literally ever after.What beautiful lush greenery...Since there were requests by bikers who had heard so much about Noah’s Ark but were unab...
