Remember Patches?

PATCHES NOW

PTCHES A MONTH AFTER RESCUE

PATCHES FRESH FROM THE POUND

We rescued Patches from the Setapak pound just before she was about to be put to sleep. She was ill first with parvo and then a bad case of distemper. She is well now and has been adopted.

Ironically, she lives in Setapak with her human family and canine friend Brownie. Her people had adopted Brownie from us last year and had wanted a companion for him and we suggested they take Patches in. We are glad that things have worked out well.

REST IN PEACE

This beautiful puppy came to us all the way from Seremban. We tried everything we could to save her but finally her frail body gave way when she contracted both parvo and corona virus. It rankles us when something like this happens especially when we realise that we could have saved her if we had found them foster homes where they can be individually cared for instead of being placed at a veterinary clinics. As pet rescuers we have our hearts broken all the time when puppies and dogs we try so hard to save die on us.

Brings to mind this little something I found:

Fragile Circle
"We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan."
Irving Townsend.

Rest in peace dear puppy - your suffering has come to an end but the pain in our hearts will remain whenever we think of you.
