[reunited!] Lost - Jude the ginger and white community tom cat (Bt Batok St 52, Tue 2 Mar)



Our community cat, a ginger and white neutered tom has been missing since Tuesday, 2 Mar 2010. It was raining very heavily that day and since then, the feeder and I could not find him. Our area is Bt Batok St 52 Blks 501-511. The rest of the community cats are intact so we dismissed trapping.

He was last wearing a blue and pink collar and may answer to his name "Jude". But he is very timid so we are very worried for him.

More photos here: http://www.catwelfare.org/node/2213

Anyone who sees him please help contact Nicole at 93685796. We would really appreciate that.

Update Sat 20 Mar

[rehomed!] A new home needed for a wonderful dog, Toffee (Cocker Spaniel)



Dear All

We have a red Cocker spaniel dog called "Toffee" who we rescued from another expat family who had to move on from Singapore but we have to give him up due to landlord (who agreed a small dog when agreeing rental details) is now saying he is too big for us to keep him!

As you can imagine we our very upset as he has become a large part of our family in the few months he has been with us. He really is a super dog and we do consider him a small dog.

Toffee is completely free to a loving caring home as he will be surely missed by the three children and will break our hearts too. He is fantastic with children (loves fetch with his ball),soft, playful and has so much love to give to someone(s) wanting a new friend.

We have just fully sterilized him and has been checked all over with our vet.

If any of you or know of anyone, who can give him a good home for us it would be a great comfort.

[rehomed!] Found - Black tom cat in Buangkok

STOMPer Ester found this black cat in the Buangkok area, and wants to help it find its owner.

Said the STOMPer:

"This five to six-month-old black cat was found wandering around the Buangkok area just before Chinese New Year.

"He is very friendly and loves drinking milk. He might be a lost cat or he just got dumped during someone's CNY's spring cleaning? He is very very tame and he is very sticky (he kept following me everywhere I go). I believe he was dumped out during CNY spring cleaning as some chinese don't like black cats.

I just have a bad feeling that he is a pet to a young gal or guy and her/his mother dump the cat out in spring cleaning cos black is unlucky, and he love to cry....but after giving milk, he will stop crying and sleep soon after. He is more happy now as the other cats and dogs are accepting him as friend, but now always outside with them. No long sticking to me like glue...

"Will the owner please e-mail me at ester.tatu@gmail.com to claim him? Thanks."

Update Sat 20 Mar
The fosterer has decided to keep him.

[rehomed!] New home for kitten - all accessories provided



I am leaving Singapore to live in Australia and I can't afford the export and quarantine costs. It breaks my heart to let go of my sweet local female kitten, but if she goes to a good home I will feel better. I'm not exactly sure when I'm leaving but I would love to keep her until I go (maybe another month or so) but if someone really wants her now, I will definitely consider that.

I will give the new owner all her accessories (cat litter box, food bowls, scratching post, left over food - Science Diet - and excess Trustie cat litter left).

She is fully vaccinated and sterilized. She has no health problems and is the sweetest, most affectionate cat I've ever had. She is fun too. She really deserves a great home and a lot of attention. She is used to me being home during the day so she needs a home where she won't be left alone all the time.

If you are interested in adopting her and giving her a loving and safe home, please contact me at stephhamilton@hotmail.com. Many thanks.

Update Sat 20 Mar
The kitten has found a home.

[rehomed!] Female crossbreed found near Sembawang Park 23 Jan 2010


Medium to large female crossbreed with some border collie, approximately 9 - 10 months old.

I found her last weekend (23 Jan 2010) under a tree by the edge of the forest near Sembawang Park, along Andrews Avenue going towards Bottle Tree Restaurant. She seemed to be lost, and was highly nervous, hungry and mildly dehydrated. I fed her a few times and she was ready to follow me home. I have no idea how she got there, and whether is she lost or abandoned.

She is healthy, and lively. No signs of injuries, no visible health problems whatsoever. Coat is shiny black and seems to be groomed nicely. Nails trimmed indicative that she belongs to someone. Ears and teeth are also clean and ok.

Roxy is sweet and friendly to my other 2 dogs at home. She is extremely affectionate towards us humans at home as well and eager to please. She was shy at first but after the initial getting to know, she has warmed up to show us how nice and friendly she is. She is also very quiet, and when left alone, she will just settle down and wait for us to come back to her.

She understands some basic commands, and I am trying to teach her others. She is very intelligent and is picking things up very fast.

If Roxy belongs to you, pls contact us immediately at 9822 1251.

If you are keen to give Roxy a good home, pls do call us as well. Do let me know your background in having dogs. She is a sporting breed, so will need to be walked or given a good run every day. But you will get much happiness and satisfaction as she is such a darling. There is no fee for this. I will assist you in the transistion period to settle her in. I would have loved to keep her but I have already 2 dogs at home.

She has been adopted! But Missy is still looking for a home...

[rehomed!] abandoned hamster found in shoe!?!


I found a male roborovski in my shoe. I've regained his fattiness and health. Ready to be adopted. He's hyper active and shy towards strangers (will hide under his running wheel when you are there) but will be quite playful after few days. His favourite food is corn. He never bites unless you hold him for a long time and he will feel like he's trap in something, so he will bite your finger.

Email me at plaslim@live.com if you want to adopt this cutie.

He will come in a hamster cage with hideout, food dish and water bottle. The cage will be $15, bought at $30 plus. Price negotiable. However the hamster is FOC.

You can adopt the hamster without the tank but must bring own carrier or simple "ta bao" container.

Much thanks.

Friend of mine found a one legged (born with it) young pigeon (teenager probably) lying in the streets, in danger of being attacked by cats.

She is looking for a good home for the pigeon. Took it to vet yesterday and vet said it is in good health but it looks as if it wont be able to survive on its own.... with only one leg, landing after flight would be difficult and there are cats and dogs who would make a meal of it.

Anyone with experience with taking care of birds and willing to take this one? Thanks.

Donations/volunteers needed for Gentle Paws, a new shelter in Pasir Ris



Dear all,

We would like to inform you that there will be a movement of some dogs and volunteers from Mdm Wong's Shelter to a new shelter named GENTLE PAWS which will be set up in April 2010 at Pasir Ris.

This new initiative promises good medical care, a larger space, guarantees proper meals and ensures the cleanliness of the environment for more dogs who are less fortunate.

Some furkids that will be brought to this shelter are not fostered and the caregivers are supporting them through their own finances.

Some financial help will go a long way in keeping this new shelter going and easing the financial strain on the caregivers who initiated this.

With this, we sincerely appeal to you for voluntary help in terms of donations or manpower as Gentle Paws will be starting from scratch and they would definitely need any form of help.

Do email farmwaylove@gmail.com and they will get back to you regarding the details very shortly.

Or you can make a voluntary donation through POSB Saving account 126-84039-0 and do drop them an email at farmwaylove@gmail.com after transferring so that they can acknowledge your donation and put it properly in the books.

Thank you very much for your kind support!

** We will be moving in on 3rd April !! **

Please support us! We would need donation for things like paint, cement, canvas, brush, soap, washing liquid, on top of the needs for food items and monetary donation...

We would also need manpower to help wash the area and paint the area, etc.

Let us know if you can help out!

Follow our blog: http://www.gentlepaws2010.blogspot.com/

[Original post, Sun 14 Mar: http://ta-in.facebook.com/group.php?gid=53544571151&v=wall]

Update Fri 26 Mar

Those who would like to donate stuff, this is the list they gave:

We are actively seeking for the items below which are the essential needs for the furkids:

1. towels
2. food for doggies
3. collars & leash (For collars best would be metal ones as the dogs are mostly large breeds and the normal buckle type can be easily broken or snapped off if the dog struggles too hard)
4. feeding bowls
5. paints
6. hose, hose nozzle
7. plastic tubs for doggies
8. used metal containers (big & small)
9. medication
10. any other donations
11. monetary donation to ease the financial burden on caregivers

Medication
Other than food and toys, we can also donate meds. Not just heartworm, tick and flea stuff but human meds we can easily get from a pharmacy for treating wounds and common illnesses. Rescued dogs often arrive at the shelter pretty beat up, injured from dog fights outside or from an accident and it would be incredibly useful to help ensure that the shelter is well stocked with these items as they use it every day.

- There is one medication which is very good in treating wounds that can be gotten from chinese medical hall and it's called Yunnan Bai Yao (bai yao- white medicine). the powder type. we have been using that to heal their wounds and it has work well all these while. One caregiver even used it to heal a pigeon with an injured wing and it got better and it could fly away

other than that it would be good if we could have items like
- sterile solution for washing wounds,
- gauze etc to bandage as they get injured very easily at shelter due to fights or rescued dogs when they first came in; usually with injuries
- Charcoal pills will be great also to relieve poisoning and also diarrhoea which they may get from time-to-time.
- For cream we do use Dettol brand antiseptic cream for their wounds as well.

Sponsor-A-Dog Program
For sponsor-a-dog programme, it will be a monthly contribution of $10 which will greatly aid in the meal fund for the furkids. The shelter is run entirely by volunteers who are caregivers to the dogs at the shelter. As much as we try to raise funds to cover cost for the other areas, we seek voluntary sponsors' help to aid in the meal funds for the furkids. you will be updated regularly on the dog's condition and well-being at the same time.

The date for contribution is 25th of each month, and the account to transfer to is posb savings account 126-84039-0. Unfortunately we do not have the means and resources for Giro although it'll be easier for donors..

You can definitely stop sponsoring if necessary, but do drop us a notice so that we can manage and evaluate our finances. Otherwise pls consider sponsoring for the furkid's friend should the current furkid which you sponsor gets adopted.

Donors are welcome any time to come play with the furkid which they are saving; nurturing and living in the fairy tale chapter of its life.

[rehomed!] Happy Luna New Year! 2yo Silky Terrier looking for a home!

2 yr old female Silky Terrier. Small, in good health. Unsterilised.

Good with dogs in a pack: good in multi-dog households or in a home where she is the only dog. Possibly not ok in a home where she is the 2nd dog as she can be quite competitive/dominant with the existing dog. Her approach to other dogs or people may seem abrupt by rushing up to them.

A found dog that I'm rehoming. All that i know about her is listed here. Her behaviors, personality and habits are of what i observed. Possibly she may change and adapt when she's in a new home environment, but i believe better to give an honest clear picture of what she's like so far, so you know what you are getting :)

May have separation anxiety, but she can be crated if you have to leave her (to go work etc) alone at home.

Pls contact via email:
themilkbone@gmail.com

*Free to a good home*

Update Mon 15 Mar
Am very happy to say that Luna has a new home with 2 other silky terriers and the owner and family have seen her at her best and worst. She will be spayed and the new family have agreed to pay for the surgery and have her recover at my place before she goes to her forever home - yippee!

[fostered/rehomed!] can anyone help a mother cat and her 3 kittens at pek kio cc (farrer park)?

Hi there.

I've noticed that there's a female cat & her litter of 3 kittens @ Pek Kio Community Centre @ 97 Cambridge Road, Singapore 219751.

The recent heavy rains are a cause for concern for these young kittens.

Hopefully a kind soul will come along & pick them up upon seeing this ad.

Warm Regards,
Jen

Update Mon 15 Mar
Great news! I've received word that some kind folks have decided to pick up the cat & her kittens.

Let's not forget our feathered friends - check out Save the Pigeons, a new blog advocating education of residents vs culling of birds

Save the Pigeons (Singapore) is set up by a teacher who witnessed the agonising deaths of pigeons in her neighbourhood after they were poisoned by a pest control company. Her blog aims to raise awareness about the plight of pigeons, and documents her letters, e-mails, thoughts, actions and everything else related to the matter.

On her motivation for keeping the blog, she writes:

2nd Feb 2010. I witnessed for the first time killing of innocent lives by the pest controllers. This was something I'd often heard about, but which I was blessed enough not to have seen with my own eyes.

I was walking home and saw at a distance a man picking something up from the ground. It looked like a bird, but the dark object didn't move, so I thought it was probably a bottle. He threw it into a black trash bag. In that instance out flew a bird from the bag.

I hastened towards the man and asked him what he was doing. He said the pigeons were a nuisance.

Nuisance?! The birds were a nuisance?

He told me it was ok, the birds were only sleeping.

I couldn't believe myself, even though I'd read enough of such nonsense logic on the internet. Soon another two men came, one of them who was supposedly in charge of the killing spree.

He told me he was sent by the town council, so I asked to speak to the town council. He called them, and later passed his mobile to me.

It was Ms Angeline Tan of Jalan Besar Town Council. Though not harsh, she was apparently defiant about their approach. She said they had received many complaints about the birds. I asked her a few times how many complaints they had received, she just wouldn't reveal the figure.

Very soon after starting the phone talk, I was crying uncontrollably. I knew crying would only irritate her more and wouldn't solve problems, but the sight of the poor birds hardly able to move and awaiting death, and being thrown into trash bags while still struggling for their dear lives, was something too much to bear. People are taking lives, and they are so numb to such a horrid act, this is indeed frightening.

After the phone talk, I noticed that a few people had gathered. One of them was an officer from NEA, and apparently was worried because I, a member of the public, was crying. He said he couldn't leave because it would be terrible if the public thought that pest controllers had made a resident cry. Well, that was the truth. If only crying would make the hard-hearted authorities more merciful!

This officer told me that things couldn't be helped. On one hand were animal lovers, on the other hand animal haters. As if this was a fact that had to be accepted.

But I thought this was pessimistic. I believe there is a way for all beings to co-exist in peace. Some day, people will come to their senses. I may not live to see the day, but one day, people will.

I came home feeling very lost and extremely disturbed. I could continue to keep an eye shut if I hadn't seen anything. But now that I saw such a cruel act first hand, it was time that I did something.

I decided to write a letter to residents appealing to them not to feed the birds. That was the first step. Then came emails to the authorities. Now, I'm compiling everything into this blog as a friend suggested. Letters, emails, thoughts, actions and everything.

I don't know how things would unfold, but at least, I've started to do something for my poor innocent friends. My dear fellow residents of good old mother earth.


Do check out her blog at http://savepigeons.blogspot.com/, and if you see anyone in your neighbourhood feeding the birds, gently let them know that if they love the pigeons - leave them alone.

[rehomed!] Rocki the West Highland Terrier

Male West Highland White Terrier. 4 years 3 months. Sensitive skin condition and is currently under training. Good with other pets and children. Paper trained, vaccinated, sterilised, understands basic command.

He's able to go unleashed for walks. Does not bark. Friendly. Can understand basic sit, stay and go commands.

He's been with me for the past 5 years but due to personal commitment, I'm putting Rocki up for adoption with a good family. Preferably a retiree with lots of time to take care of Rocki. Rocki needs to be bathed with medicated shampoo twice weekly due to his sensitive skin condition. Will elaborate if you're keen on adoption.

Contact chewkt99@yahoo.com.sg.

Update Sun 14 Mar
Rocki has gone to a good home!
