Mr. & Mrs Yong reluctantly posed for pix

Thank you for dropping by to visit our furry friends.

When they first visited the shed & saw Subang with her pups, they asked us why we did not spay her. We then explained to them that we actually rescued Subang and her pups from the pound. We are so surprised that aunties uncles of their age actually understand the importance of SPAY-NEUTER rather than seeing SPAY-NEUTER a cruel act.

Why you should spay-neuter your dogs & cats? And even rabbits?

Amend archaic Animal Act 1953 - The Star Saturday April 24, 2010

We read with great interest the article contribute by Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye in The Star on Saturday (page N57) on 24 April 2010. For those of you who misses it, we would like to share it out here.


BEING an animal lover, I have been following closely issues concerning animal welfare, particularly on acts of cruelty to animals.

I applaud the many NGOs and animal welfare activists who have been championing the cause of animal welfare and working hard to draw the Government’s attention to amend the archaic Animal Act 1953 and make it relevant to current needs and challenges.

I fully understand the calls and aspirations by these activists for I myself have several pets in my home which I regard as members of my family.

I wish to associate myself with the numerous calls to the Government to act without further delay and introduce amendments to the Animal Act 1953 (2006 Amendment) to provide for deterrent punishment against those who are involved in acts of animal cruelty and abuses as well as to better enhance animal welfare.

Poor enforcement of an archaic law by the authority concerned is largely responsible for the rise in animal cruelty cases.

Besides seeking urgent amendments to the Act, more can be and should be done to educate the public on animal welfare and pet ownership so that they fully understand their responsibilities and help minimise acts of abuse and cruelty to those animals.

State Governments and local authorities also have an important role to play in animal welfare by providing land to be used as animal sanctuaries where all captured strays will be homed and looked after.

Municipal dog pounds must act to improve the deplorable conditions dogs are kept in. Catching strays must be done humanely and not in a cruel manner.

Animal welfare organisations should continue to pursue animal welfare issues by involving their elected representatives to raise such issues in Parliament.

The authority concerned had several years ago spoken of the need to amend the Animal Act 1953 and other related laws but nothing substantial has been done thus far.

I call on the Veterinary Services Department which is the custodian of animal welfare to brief the minister concerned on the urgent need to monitor animal welfare issues and introduce relevant provisions to minimise acts of animal cruelty and abuse.

The animals that share our planet are a part of us. It is our moral duty to protect them from harm and abuse.

On animal welfare, Mahatma Gandhi once said: “The greatness of a Nation can be seen by the way it treats its animals.”

Updates from Happy

Happy (a.k.a. Sleepy a.k.a. Reiki) sent us an happy email.

As usual, pictures speak louder than words.

When she was Reiki (in Dec 2009)……

When she was SLEEPY (in Feb 2010)……

Now she is HAPPY (in April 2010)…..

Happy is so Sai-E-look-alike, just that Sai E is brown/white & Happy is Black-n-White, with all the moo-moo cow spots.

This is Sai E.

According to Happy’s daddy (Wong), his fiancée (Michelle) was still able to lift the 3-month-old Happy up above her head. But now Michelle can no longer carry 5-month-old Happy over her head. Hahahaha.

Are you still eating non-stop like a piggie, Happy?

We are all so happy to see Happy bring a bundle of joy to Wong's, family.

Update from Daddy, Mr Wong again,

She's completed her vaccination and she's due for spaying next month. Planning to give heartworm guard next weekend.

She's becoming picky with her food. Partly my fault coz pampering her with organic can food, occasionally la. She's so manja at times, always picking her toy and playing it beside us, where ever we go. She knows how to sit, hand and give high 5, left and right :-)

Glad to hear her mom is in good hands and she's looking very healthy and pretty. Thanks to all your effort. Keep it up!!

Little Mocha & Puchong

Lil Mocha was tested Distemper positive last week. Fan has been fostering him since then.

Hang in there, Lil Mocha!

Magic Wand

I wish I had a magic wand
To make it go away;
I'd wave my scepter over you
Until you were okay.

I'd think good thoughts; I'd send you love;
I'd transmit healing vibes;
My wand and I would surely beat
Whatever the doc prescribes.

But there is no magic scepter, so
I cannot cast a spell;
Just know you're often in my thoughts,
And I hope you'll soon be well!

By Joanna Fuchs (from www.poemsource.com)

We felf so sorry knowing that Puchong (Mocha’s mama) did not make it. She passed away on 22/04/2010. She was very weak since we took away all her pups. Gosh! She must be missing her pups loads. How we wish we could bring her pups to see her before last breath.

Puchong could not understand why her pup was brought out from the cage. Her 3-legged pup went to the rainbow bridge on 27/03/2010. Read the story here.

Our heart torn into pieces when we saw this picture of Puchong looking puzzled, not knowing what had happened to her precious baby.

Good Bye Dear Puchong! Please send our regards to your other 3 pups at rainbow bridge. May you rest in peace. Love you lots!

Another Trip to the Vet

After visitng Sai E & Fei Mui, off we went to visit Starry, Jimmy White & Sulise who have distemper & are currently hospitalising @ Dr Ben’s clinic.

Depressed Jimmy White just recovered from distemper, now looking for a good home.

He loves human companion.

Yes Jimmy, I know you don’t like to be caged but we have no choice. Let’s work harder to find a loving owner for you.

Oh, even Starry was admitted due to (suspected) distemper as well.

Now you see the importance of vaccinations. Even adult dogs need their annual booster.

Sulise who loves to roam around freely whining to get out from her cage as well.

It seems she doesn't twitch / tremble as much today.

I was crying my heart out knowing that she trembled a lot yesterday. I thought she was going to die. Hang in Sulise!

Please please please. All dogs need vaccinations, no matter males/females, bigs/smalls, purebreds /pariah dogs, puppies/adult dogs.

Quoted from Fort Dodge Brochure:

“Why You Need to VACCINATE Your Dog?

Responsible pet care requires puppies to be taken to the vet for their initial course of vaccinations, but this CANNOT protect them from the rest of their lives. The immunity weakens over time and your pet can again become susceptible to disease.

Should your pet become infected, treatment can require frequent visits to your vet and possible hospitalisation.

However NOT ALL diseases can be cured and disability or DEATH may result. The only PRACTICAL means of protection is VACCINATION!”
