Please Exercise Due Courtesy When Giving Out Handphone Numbers

This is just a gentle reminder that AnimalCare does not offer any 24-hour service by phone. If you notice, there is no phone contact anywhere on this blog. We are only contactable by email.

If you require a medical/neutering subsidy, kindly apply through email. We will respond within 24 hours as that is the best we can offer. If you need help urgently, please contact groups that offer such service. I am sorry, but we do not have any resources to offer this and would appreciate it very much if rescuers do not demand for it.

In the first place, we have never claimed to be a rescue group. We are only a charity fund.

If you are unable to write an email for any reason, please get a friend to write it for you as we need the softcopies of the photos and our form is only downloadable from this blog.�We have applicants who are not literate in English too, but they get someone else to write the email, send the photos and help them fill up the form. They post the forms and receipts on time and it reaches us within the 2-week deadline. They follow our procedures, all is well and we are thankful for this. They do not insist on calling me.

In these past few weeks, I have been getting phonecalls from people who insist they must speak to me on the phone and nothing else. Sometimes these calls come when I am teaching, attending a meeting, giving a public talk or spending time with family. When I do not answer the phone, it means I am not able to speak at that time. Hence, please do not keep calling endlessly. Send an sms, if you must. I will respond when I read it.

My phone number is for family and friends. I would deeply appreciate it very much if those who have my phone number exercise due courtesy and please�ask me before giving it out to others.

All AnimalCare communication is by email. We will respond within 24 hours unless I have no internet access. If you require an immediate response, please contact other groups which have phone contact or the service that you need.

Thank you for your kind consideration and understanding.

When in Rome, (please) do as the Romans do.�
