Noah's Ark Animal Chatter - March 2017

Birthday Celebrations for Melody Our Oldest Resident Visitors from Singapore celebrated Melody's Catherine showing Melody her cake. 34th birthday on 25 February 2017 during the sanctuary tour.    She was presented with a cake made of hay with carrots that looked like candles on the top of the cake.  The other horses and dogs also joined in the celebrations while visitors took turns to take a photo with her.   While Melody was enjoying her cake, our volunteer, Josann treated the humans to an array of mouthwatering cakes she had made for this special occasion.   Some people commented that there was no "real" birthday cake that day so the following week, Josann baked a cake for Melody and everyone celebrated Melody's birthday one more time.  She was not complaining.  She deserved it!   Being the oldest and the dominant mare, Melody enjoys being the matriarch of the herd.  At 34 years of age, she is still fit and strong and does not take any nonsense from anyone.   Rescued in 1999 from Tang Dynasty when they closed, Melody made the journey across the Straits to her new home when the sanctuary relocated to Johor from Singapore in June 2000.    Happy Birthday Melody!  Let's hope you have many more years to come!  Next year, maybe durian cake for you?  She absolutely loves durians but that is another story!

New arrivals from Singapore Welcoming Ah Gal, Fei Zai, Mandy & Blackie On 7 March 2017, the sanctuary was abuzz with news that four dogs arrived from Singapore.  We are very glad that we are able to give these deserving dogs a place they can finally call their forever home.  Let's meet them and hear their stories.    The Valentine Couple:  Ah Gal & Fei Zai Ah Gal and Fei Zai were guard dogs looking after a factory in Singapore.  They worked very hard, day and night, to ensure that the premises were safe.  After 10 years of dedication and undying loyalty, their services were terminated.    Instead of being rewarded for their work, they ended up at AVA.  This did not bode well for these two senior dogs.  They most certainly did not deserve this fate.    Thank goodness they were saved and can now retire and live out the rest of their lives at the sanctuary.  They were rescued by a NANAS volunteer the day before Valentine's Day and she aptly named them the Valentine Couple.   Mandy Mandy has lived at a heavy vehicle park for the past 13 years ever since she was a puppy.  She also had a caregiver, a foreign worker who worked at the vehicle park.  He was very responsible and ensured that Mandy received her annual vaccinations and when she was sick, he would bring her to the vet.   Unfortunately, the worker's contract ended and he had to leave.  In the meantime, Mandy had an accident and injured her right hind leg needing a plate to hold her bones together. Her right front leg was also injured.   When we found out about her plight, we were happy to offer Mandy a place at the sanctuary.   We strongly believe that Mandy deserves a home and a place to retire with dignity.   Blackie  Blackie is 2 years old and a very large dog.  He used to be locked up in a cage for many hours.  No animal should be treated this way.   A dog this size needs plenty of exercise and the freedom to move around.   What is the point of having a dog and keeping it in a cage?  The owner most probably just wanted a guard dog to look after his factory.  Wait till it barks too much, it will be disposed off in a heartbeat.  You just cannot win, can you?   Luckily, the rescuer felt sorry for him and managed to free him from his misery.  When we heard about Blackie, we agreed to take him in.  He can now roam free and run around on the sanctuary grounds to his heart's content.  Another happy dog in the making!

Noah's Ark Tour +  Talk on Pet Massage Date: Saturday, 25 March 2017 Time: 10.30 am to 6.30 pm Meeting: Boon Lay MRT Passenger Meeting Point Have you ever wanted to learn pet massage? Book your seats for the next sanctuary tour on 25 March.   Betty Vong Jansen will be presenting an Introduction to Pet Massage and How it can help your pet at Wisma Kuching at 4.00 pm for all visitors who are interested to attend.   You will learn how to calm and relax your pet using the first basic stroke.  There will also be a short demo as well as hands-on practice on the two dogs and many cats in the cattery.   Why Learn Pet Massage? Massage therapy is not just for senior or sick animals.  It is a form of preventative healthcare, a first line of defence against any potential health problem at any stage of your pet's life.  Massage also enhances the bond between you and your pet.  The greatest gift you can give your pet is the gift of massage. The Benefits of Pet Massage Eases sore muscles and relieves aches and pains Relaxes and calms down sick, nervous or hyperactive animals Helps slow down the ageing process and Enables your pet to lead a longer, healthier and happier life For more details on the tour, click HERE.

How you can help us to help them Rescue work is never easy Sometimes we feel helpless when we cannot help each and every animal.  Many times, we have had to choose but it breaks our heart not being able to do more for the ones we could not help.   Saving an animal is the easy part but in doing so, we are responsible for it for the rest of its life.  Raising enough money for food, medical and daily necessities needed to run a sanctuary with more than 1,000 animals is, in itself, a monumental task.  Every month, the volunteers are busy raising funds to continue this work.   Funds are also needed for key projects and they include: Project Industrial Dogs (Trap Neuter Release & Manage) Project Catsnip (Trap Neuter Release & Manage) Project SOS (Save Our Street) Dogs Noah's Ark VetHelp & Vet Internship Programmes  There are many ways you can help: Sponsorship of animal - S$50 per month for a dog or cat / S$100 per month for a horse Donations via cash or cheque Donations via GIRO from S$10 upwards per month Sanctuary tours NANAS merchandise   Pet Sponsorship Do check out our awesome Tri-Paws by clicking HERE.   Wong Tai Zena Yankee Lordy Bond Ariel Lok Lok Emperor Bianco If you wish to contribute in any way to make it easier for us to continue doing this work, here are the bank details:   For donations in Singapore dollars For donations in Malaysian Ringgits Local Funds Transfer Bank:            DBS Bank Acct No:       023-905510-9 Acct Name:  Noahs Ark Natural Animal                      Shelter   Overseas Funds Transfer Swift Code:  DBSSSGSG Bank Name: DBS Bank Ltd Acct Name:  Noahs Ark Natural Animal                      Shelter   Acct No:          023-905510-9 Bank Branch  Hougang Branch Code   023 Bank Address: 12 Marina Boulevard DBS Asia Central Marina Bay Financial Centre Tower 3 Singapore 018982 Local Funds Transfer Bank:             CIMB Bank Acct No:         01190002636058 Name:            Noahs Ark Natural Animal                        Shelter   Overseas Funds Transfer Swift Code:      CIBBMYKL Bank Name:    CIMB Bank Berhad Acct Name:      Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter   Acct No:          01190002636058 Bank Branch:  Gelang Patah Bank address: 25, Jalan Medan Nusa Perinitis 6, Taman Nusa Perintis 2, 81550 Gelang Patah, Johor, Malaysia.   Cheque Issue to: "Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter"   Mail to: 405C Fernvale Lane, #09-101 Singapore 793405   Cheque Issue to: "Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter"   Mail to: 2B Jalan KLJ 4 Taman Kota Laksamana Jaya 75200 Melaka, Malaysia

Updates at Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter: October 2016

13 October 2016

Dear Friends of NANAS

Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter (NANAS) is no longer affiliated to Noah's Ark CARES

It has come to our attention that some of our donors are not aware thatNoah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter (NANAS) which runs the animal sanctuary in Johor, Malaysia is now a separate entity from Noah's Ark CARES in Singapore.

Both entities, their operations and fundraising initiatives, were separated in June 2016.

• A new entity, Noah's Ark Natural Animal Shelter (NANAS) in Singapore was formed on 27 July 2016 for the purpose ofcontinuing our rescue operations in Singapore as well as forraising funds for shelter operations in Malaysia.
• Noah's Ark CARES is solely based in Singapore.
• Noah's Ark CARES no longer funds the operations in Malaysia with effect from June 2016. 

A new bank account has been opened for NANAS Singapore.

All donations, sponsorship and boarding fees for the animals at the animal sanctuary in Johor, Malaysia should be paid into this new account.

If your donations are intended for the animals at NANAS Malaysia, please channel your funds to the following new bank account with immediate effect:

We thank you for your continuing support of our work and for being there when we needed help in this critical transition period.  In the meantime, we wish to update you on our latest rescues from Singapore.

Meet Meowmi, a 10 year old cat who arrived in September 

She belonged to and was cared for by a maid but when her contract ended, she was sent home.  The employer also did not want to keep the cat and was going to put it to sleep. 

Fortunately, Andrew came to know about Meowmi's plight, tried all means to re-home her but failed as she can be quite a handful and difficult to handle.  Most people would also not adopt senior cats so chances of re-homing her was very slim.

At the last resort, Andrew turned to Noah's Ark (NANAS) for help.  We agreed to take the cat because we were satisfied that he had exhausted all means to help the animal.

Andrew has also taken responsibility to look after Meowmi for the rest of her life by sponsoring her stay at the sanctuary.  We applaud him for doing his utmost to ensure that Meowmi be given a second chance.

7 dogs just arrived from a shelter forced to shut down due to rental increase

In December 2015, Raymund Wee, our founder, offered assistance to a shelter in Singapore when he found out that it had to shut down due to operational cost.

The landlord had doubled the rent and refused to budge so the operator of the shelter accepted our offer of help.  She had also told us that she would do her best to re-home as many dogs as possible before her lease expired at the end of September.

Out of a total of 22 dogs, 15 dogs were re-homed.  The remaining 7 dogs were sent to Noah's Ark (NANAS).  These were the ones that were difficult to re-home, especially the black, black and tan and older dogs.

However, these 7 dogs are the lucky ones who are now given a second chance at the sanctuary.  They are very sociable and have happily settled in.  We are sure, that in no time, they will be free to play, roam and run around on the sanctuary grounds.

All expenses incurred were paid for by the shelter operator and her friends which included sterilisation, vaccination, health checks, transportation and documentation fees.

Pets Station Food Donation Drive extended to 31 October

Due to a technical glitch, some of our supporters were not able to place their order for food with the system. Pets Station has kindly extended the food drive till 31 October.

Please note that we have received your orders for September and it will be delivered to the sanctuary together with the October's food drive to save the transport cost to JB.

To place your order, please visit click HERE or visit any of Pets Station outlets.

How much food do the dogs and cats eat per day at the sanctuary?

	Dogs Dry food 12 bags (216 kg) a day  360 bags (6,480 kg) a month Tin food 30 cans a day  900 cans a month
	Cats Dry food 3 bags (54 kg) a day  90 bags (1620 kg) a month Tin food 20 cans a day  600 cans a month
