THE SERDANG KITTEN KILLER

THE NOTORIOUS SERDANG KITTEN KILLER CHOW XIAO WEI READING FROM A PREPARED TEXT. SHE IS FLANKED BY HER MOTHER AND EAN YONG.

http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=1895256344554&oid=276194922385&comments¬if_t=video_comment

There was a huge crowd at Seri Kembangan assemblyman Ean Yong Hian Wah's service center where the Serdang Kitten Killer's press conference was held. The pervert read from a prepared press statement saying that she regretted what she had done. But we could not see any remorse in her. The reasons for her being there was because she was receiving threats from strangers, her friends had all turned on her and her mother's chee cheong fun business was effected. Her excuse for her morbid behaviour was that she was troubled because of her parents divorce. We do not buy this because many people come from troubled backgrounds. Do they all go out and kill poor defenceless animals? We were also told that she did not have any trouble in school or was not a juvenile delinquent. So, this fact debunks the fallacy that she is a troubled person. One look at 21-year-old Chow Xiao Wei and you can tell that she is a bully! MDDB's Christine Lai and Cheryl Cheung had an interview with her and they reported that Ean Yong and Serdang MP Teo Nie Ching answered all the questions for her. That was not the right thing to do. Since, we know these two to be nice young people, we are going to 'assume' that they were not aware of what they were dealing with. Teo also said the pervert was stressed and could not meet those who were patiently waiting to see her for hours. Wrong thing to say YB! This evil, vicious, cruel, perverted poor excuse for a human being had stressed many people with her blatant act of cruelty. Please, YB Ean Yong and Nie Ching, do not insult the intelligence of animal activists by taking a defensive stance to save this perverted idiot's butt. Anyway, officers from both the Selangor and Kuala Lumpur Department of Veterinary Services were there and Cheryl will be lodging a formal complaint with the Selangor DVS on Monday or Tuesday. We would like to thank the DVS officers for taking a pr0-active stance in dealing with animal cruelty cases. The SPCA was also there and we hope that this matter will be collectively pursued until this pervert is brought to book. We also learnt at today's press conference that this pervert Chow Xiao Wei had hammered the mother cat as well as we believe she said that the mother and two kittens were all dead. Our question - dis she go back and ensured that the other kitten and the mother cat, which was desperately trying to save its kittens, were killed? MDDB will pursue this matter and ensure that she will be the first person who is sent to jail - at least for a week - for her perverted act of cruelty. Christine Lai also says that she was pushed and shoved by a couple of men who were stationed at the door to prevent non-reporters from going in. The pervert was being treated like a victim. She had also lodged a police report stating that two people had threatened her. Stupid pervert!

Hernia Boy

Hernia Boy after his rescue

Handsome Hernia Boy posing for the camera

Hernia Boy needs a home

This is Hernia Boy and he was an accident victim rescued in Meru, Klang several months ago. The impact of the accident had caused his diaphragm to tear and Hernia Boy's intestines were spilling into his lungs. He also suffered some injuries to his legs and he was unable to move as both his hind legs were splayed. He underwent one surgery to patch-up his diaphragm but the tear was so huge that it could not be completely stitched-up. He currently has a small hole which has resulted in a bit of his liver and intestines peeking into his lungs. Because of this Hernia Boy cannot eat big meals in a go as all of the food cannot be digested well. He has learnt to eat the kibbles we give him little by little throughout the day and is beginning to put on some weight. He is a very loving dog and if there is anyone out there who is willing to take him in and love him, please call 019-3576477.

WE ARE HAPPY

OUR SPECIAL RESCUED DOGGIES THAT GOT ADOPTED

This boy was born in Northport and lived there until he was caught by a small scale dog catching company that practices a no-kill policy. They try to rehome the dogs they catch and have over the months handed us quite a number of puppies and dogs. We would also like to thank Northport for the compassion shown in not getting the local council to come and brutally catch the dogs and send them to their deaths. This chap was adopted by this couple after he worked his charm on them.

Manoharan with the pretty girl.

Thank you Sean, for dognapping me.

Some months ago someone called Sean sent us a mail saying that he knew of a dog that was being abused by its owner. He said the dog - a nine-month-old female - was tied-up all the time was left without shelter. Therefore the poor dog was drenched when it rained and scorched when hot. The owner also fed her very little and beat her up quite a bit and had even thrown flower pots at the dog. Sean wanted us to help and we told him that we had no locus standi to do anything. However, we told him to do what we sometimes do under the same circumstances i.e dognap! We told him that we'll take her if he could get her. He did just that and the poor, frightened, skinny girl came to live with us. She overcame her fear and distrust of people very quickly. We put her up for adoption on Sunday and she was adopted by a nice family from Subang Jaya. We are happy Sean went the extra mile in rescuing her. Thank you Sean.

Forrest

Forrest with Mr Ng at the last MDDB adoption drive

Handsome Forrest was adopted by Mr Ng Ting Heng at our last adoption drive. Forrest and his human took to each other almost immediately after meeting. The little pup had gone through and amazing journey from the tim he was rescued from the Selayang pound in March. Here's wishing Forrest and his humans all the very best.

Lester

Gaping wound exposing flesh and bone

70 percent of the scald marks have healed and the skin appears to be ok

Relieved and thankful that he was given a chance to live instead of being euthanised.

Thank you for from the bottom of my doggie heart.

I promise to get better real soon.

Smilling for the camera.

This part of the burn may need a skin graft.

Remember the fellow who was scalded by hot oil. Well, we have named him Lester and would like to report that he is recovering from his burns very fast. He looks very happy as well and is wagging his tail as if thanking those who rescued him as well as those taking care of him at the clinic. His burns are healed at least 70 % but we do not know if he requires a skin graft or something to that effect. He also has a deep cut in the leg which is exposing flesh and bone and the vets are treating that as well. This is why we do not put animals to sleep. They are very resilient and always decide if they want to get better or not. In Lester's case he had indicated that he wanted to survive his ordeal and move on with life - that's why he had gone looking for his feeder after being injured. we are glad we did not allow ourselves to be pressured into killing him, as suggested by many, at a time when he needed compassion, love and medical care the most.

Finally.

We were told cages were sent to the Klang pound to prevent overcrowding - in addition to detergent and everything else required. Anyway, its good the DVS is putting in the extra cages even if it is only done after we had sent a cage over to drive across the message that extra cages were urgently needed.

The DVS is finally doing what it should have done ages ago. It is sad it has to come to a situation where we had to push them to do these things. Had we merely resorted to pleading and pleading with the MPK - the situation would not have changed a bit.

We are happy that the DVS and MPK have finally seen the light. We will now gladly make way for the late comers - who didn't give a puppy's bottom - about the situation to move in and take over now. Hold your series of meetings and do what you must now that we have cleared the path for you.

We would also like to take this opportunity to thank all our friends and volunteers who had gone to the pound and initiated the change. Thank you Mandy - for delivering food for the pound dogs every week.

And finally a big THANK YOU to AnimalCare which had gone in and rescued 50 over canines and relocated them when no other organisation had cared to do so.

We have received more than 20 puppies from this batch and some have died due to various diseases contracted from the pound. We are still fighting very hard to ensure that the survivors will make it and will rehome them as soon as they recover.

We will continue delivering the food until we are sure that sufficient food is being provided for the dogs.

We hope this piece of news is true

We have been duly informed that the Veterinary Services Department had gone to the Klang Pound with medicines and disinfectants. The pound workers were also briefed on how to disinfect the place. We hope this is indeed true and if it is - we would like to thank MPK and DVS for putting right what has been so very wrong. We would also like to congratulate the MPK's acting director of health En Zul Abbas for taking the constructive criticism levelled against him and his department and working to improve the situation. No dogs were apparently put to sleep today. For now, this is what we gather. However, if this is not true - we will continue with our advocacy work. We will update once we have checked the pound.

PISSED OFF!

This is Madeline who is in the care of seasoned fosterer Lynette. Madeline was among the first batch of puppies rescued from the pound and handed over to us. Does she look like she cannot be saved?



We are pretty pissed-off with what we heard today. Apparently a vet with the Department of Veterinary Services (DVS) has instructed that all the puppies in the Klang pound be put to sleep because they 'won't survive.'


No doubt, some of the puppies have succumbed to distemper, parvo or corona but many have also survived including Madeline - who is ready for adoption.


This vet Dr TR (who is incidentally a Klang girl) has no right to make such sweeping and stupid statements.


Her instructions were conveyed to us by the pound workers - and we feel that even though the Klang Municipal Council had waived all payments to encourage people to take dogs from the pound - Dr TR has just thrown a spanner into the MPK's efforts.

Instead of making stupid statements such as this Dr TR should advise the pound people to:

• separate mothers and pups from the rest of the dogs
• separate pets and strays
• separate sick dogs from healthy ones
• instruct MPK to provide the pound with disinfectant and detergent to clean the place
• instruct the MPK to build a proper drainage system for the water from the pound to flow out (it is now seeping out onto the road outside - creating contamination of sorts)
  

Sadly, Dr TR's constipated mentality is what we get in a large number of young vets these days.

MORE PICS

MORE PICS - NOTE HOW SPURCED-UP AND UNCROWDED THE PLACE IS. THANK HEAVENS WE HAVE PICTURES AND THE RECORDING DONE BY THE TV3 CREW TO STATE OTHERWISE!

BAD, BAD, BAD

Mandy, who volunteers for both the Malaysian Dogs Deserve Better and AnimalCare visited the pound today to deliver our weekly ration for the Klang pound dogs and what she told us is indeed very depressing.

Here are excerpts of Mandy’s findings as well as photos taken by her.


 According to the caretakers most of the dogs are being put down yesterday morning to 'clean up' the place before the DVS visited the place yesterday afternoon.

(We expected this and even informed Klang MP Charles Santiago that his staff should not have announced his visit.)

 I heard that the big shots from MPK are coming down to the pound this afternoon at 3 also that's why they were hosing down the place this morning.

(We were also told that they were going to have a briefing at the MPK HQ at 4.00pm - but both the briefing as well as the visit to the pound did not take place.)

 Now the enclosure have around 2-6 dogs each only.

(Thank heavens - we have pictures as evidence as well as the recording by the TV3 camera crew.)

 They must have put down close to a 100 dogs and the Dalmatian which had been roaming freely outside was also nowhere to be found.

 The pups are being put out in the sun too and some look really weak. However, a volunteer from AnimalCare who came later brought some plastic sheets to be used on the floor of the makeshift guardhouse to place all the pups in order to shield them from rain and shine.

(MDDB HAS ALREADY SENT AN XXL CAGE FOR THE MOTHER DOG AND PUPS AFTER HEARING THIS FROM MANDY. HOPEFULLY THE POUND WORKERS HAVE ASSEMBLED THE CAGE FOR THE MUM AND HER PUPS.)

 I was also told by the caretakers that their 'superior' from MPK made some allegations about us (the independent rescuers). The pound workers were told that we had made postings on the internet alleging that they clubbed and killed some of the dogs.

(This is fitnah of the highest order. None of our blogs had ever mentioned this.)

 I told the caretakers that we have never made any of those false allegations before, and we need the public to know that the 'superiors' in MPK were making false allegations against us.

 These false allegations have made the caretakers very angry and they refuse to let us take any snapshots when I visited this morning.

 They were told by their superiors that we can feed them but not take photos.

(Of course - the pictures have made things rather uncomfortable for them.)

 My question is this, What are they afraid of, since they refuse to let us take snapshots? I can only think of this, they have not been properly feeding and maintaining the dogs and the enclosures that's why they have doubts on themselves.

(We think so too.)

 Another matter i want to highlight is they do not use any detergents or bleach to clean the place and it could lead to an outbreak of diseases such as distemper, corona and parvo.

(This is what we mean by mismanagement. they want to catch strays and pets and hold them in enclosures but don't have the most crucial stuff - disinfectant (bleech) and detergent. Ask any vet and they'll tell you how important bleech is when handling dogs. I wonder why the Department of Veterinary Services (DVS) don't tell the pound this?)

 That's why most of the dogs are sick and most of the ones we rescued before are sick too. It is because they are infected when they are being put in the filthy enclosures without any proper disinfection.

 We should put our views in writing and those who are interested to go tomorrow can contact me too. We need more voice to improve the situation.

(MANDY CAN BE CONTACTED AT 012-3616163

 We should also highlight the fact that they're trying to sweep the dirt under the carpet by putting most of the dogs to sleep on Monday in order to look as if they've been doing a proper job.

(Yep, that's the way things work around in places where guilty people have been caught red-handed.)

 They are not! We need more enclosures to put sick dogs away from other healthy ones and dogs with collars should also be segregated from the strays.

(Yes, way to go Mandy. Hopefully more people like Mandy would come forward to help the voiceless. Attached pics taken by Mandy.)

MORE PHOTOS LATER

Who feeds the dogs?

We had our little gathering at the pound but almost all of us were very late because we couldn’t find our way to the place. Anyway, the sight that greeted us was heart-wrenching and all of us left the place feeling desolate and frustrated because we couldn’t do much for the poor dogs. They were lying in the own feces and urine with nothing to drink and eat.

Some were breathing heavily, indicating that they were suffering from lung infection or pneumonia whilst some others appeared to be too weak to even move. There were also dogs which had open wounds.
We brought three large bags of dog biscuits and fed the starving dogs as soon as we got there. We also had a television crew with us because we wanted MPK to realize that not feeding the dogs at the pound was morally wrong. Soon after the television crew had finished the job, I called the MPK health director, who was not contactable, the whole of last week. Surprisingly, he picked-up the phone after the second ring this time around.

He was furious and said the local council by-laws did not have provisions to feed the dogs. “We are not a shelter but a holding center,’’ he said. In short, he was telling us that MPK was not obligated to feed the dogs. That MPK did not care if these poor animals starved to death. However, he has forgotten that the Department of Veterinary Services’ guidelines strictly stipulate that dogs have to be given food and water and ensured a clean environment pending euthanasia.

Given that the Veterinary Services Department is a federal body and the local councils are the lowest rung of the administrative system – the local councils have to adhere to what has been stipulated by the DVS in regard to the catching and management of strays.
We will be meeting this person on Monday and hopefully he gets the picture. Meanwhile, one of the dogs that were not in the enclosure followed us out of the compound and we brought her back.

The dogs were 'calling out to us' and some tried to desperately wriggle out of the enclosure. One young dog stood on the sill all the time we were there. It broke our hearts to see them like that.

We couldn’t remove any of the other dogs because we had to make arrangements with the MPK to pay the compound. Anyway, the dogs we brought back tested negative for parvo, corona and distemper but tested positive for the pregnancy test. So, she is currently at a foster home until we find her a permanent home.

Besides this dog, we also have with us 20 puppies and 2 dogs that was give to us by MyAnimalCare. Several have been sent to foster homes and two distemper/parvo puppies had to be dispatched to Gemas, which is located at the Negri Sembilan-Johor border, where a family had volunteered to take care of them.

We hope that some of you reading this can atleast take one of the pound dogs under your care. Let us know and we will make the necessary arrangements.

We are hoping and praying

Dear people,

the adoption drive at the Summit Subang Jaya went on well. All the puppies put up for adoption had been tested for viruses, including distemper, the evening before. All had tested negative and were robust and active.

Off all the puppies put up for adoption, only four were born to a stray mum who had been rescued and boarded at a veterinary clinic pending adoption.

The others were all rescued of the streets and a couple were also rescued from a garbage dump.

We will remind the adopters to deworm them a few more times but our main worry is for them to remain healthy.

We had done our best over the three weeks that they were with us by giving them vitamins, immune boosters as well as feeding nutritious food.

But experience tells us that the puppies need to make through all three vaccinations before they are really safe.

We have so far given them all the first shot.

Stray puppies have poor immune systems and we hope it does not crash. We have also reminded adopters not to take them out to public places until all shots have been completed.

Now that this batch is out, we have undertaken a batch of ten puppies which have all tested positive for distemper but the testes show that the infection is slight.

So, we will be spending the next three weeks fighting to save the lives of our new batch of puppies and we hope they will all be well enough by our next adoption drive.

The vets tell us that there is an parvo and distemper epidemic going on and sadly its the strays that are badly hit.

Two weeks ago we found and old stray walking in circles and frothing in the mouth. We managed to get him to a vet where he was admitted but the poor dog died the following day.

The vet says it was distemper.

So, please pray with us that the puppies adopted out today will all be fine and the new ones will successfully emerge healed and well like our Victor and Patches.
