Walking is a form of low impact, moderate intensity exercise that has a range of health benefits and few risks. As a result, the CDC recommend that most adults aim for 10,000 steps per day . For most people, this is the equivalent of about 8 kilometers, or 5 miles.20 Jan 2021

AURAL HAEMATOMA IN A CAT - Rare case.
"Vet 1 used a syringe and needle to suck out the blood from
my cat' s swollen left ear," Elsie said to me. "But the ear
swelling re-appears. I have repeated the sucking out the blood again
over the last seven days, but the swelling keeps coming back!
"I
phoned my friend Mary. She said that surgery is needed!"
"Surgery
is preferred to syringing out the blood. The vet makes a big S-shaped
cut to drain out the blood," I told Elsie. "The ear must be
bandaged for around 10 days if you are worried about the ear shape
turning into a cauliflower mass."
As at 4 Feb 2023, the couple had decided to get surgery done by Vet 1 soon.

2 FEB 2023. Video evidence.
Dr Sing Kong Yuen documents the rare case of an aural haematoma (swollen ear with blood inside the ear pinna) and explains its surgical treatment. The owners will get the cat operated by Vet 1's clinic. Vet 1 had been giving steroids, antibiotics and had advised the couple to use the needle and syringe aspirations to suck out the blood. Every 2 days, the couple aspirated, but the swelling recurs. Now they decided to let Vet 1 do an operation to release the blood. Surgical treatment is the standard option for aural haematomas as needle aspirations do not work in most cases.

VET CASE STUDY:
What is the cause of this right eye shedding tears?
The following could be causes: 1. Paper bedding of brown and white types. 2. Sand bath on the upper platform is used as a peeing container instead of the usual sand bath. The burrowing into the sand bath could have tossed sand particles into the right eye. 3. Wheel with a cover of corn cardboard encircling the base. The floor of the inside of the wheel has NO grid bars, hence the cardboard was installed. An unusual situation. Pieces of cardboard could have got into the right eye during exercise. 4. The platform with ladder comprised 2 levels. The sand bath was on the upper level and was used for peeing.
Items No. 2, 3 and 4 were removed.
The nurse had shown owner how to apply eye drops for the next 10 days. No more watery right eye after 7 days of treatment. The owner is happy.
Do not delay in seeking veterinary treatment of your hamster with eye injuries. Early treatment may save vision as the hamster keeps rubbing its injured eye till it gets inflamed or ruptured. If the eyeball pops out of the eye socket, it will be too late to save the vision. Seek a hamster vet as not all vets perform hamster surgeries. Consult Toa Payoh Vets, 6254-3326 or 9668-6468 promptly.

27 Jan 2023. I am David Sing
Kong Yuen. Three stars in my google review refer to the maintenance
condition of the Hermes' statue in Liat Towers, Singapore.
I
like the statue of Hermes' firework maker on horseback carrying two
silk scarves. It is very difficult to get a sharp photo using hand
held position.
This statue is said to be one of two installed
in Hermes' stores worldwide. Two years ago, I took a photo of this
statue. The horse was white and relatively clean. Today, the horse
has much black and green fungus (see the photo).
I hope
Hermes' management will scrub and clean the statue and paint the cap
which had white spots (I had photoshopped off the spots). At one
time, the Merlion was in a similar fungal infested state too, but
nowadays, it appears well maintained.

VET CASE V 2/2.
26 JAN 2023:
The smelly left ear tumour was removed under
anaesthetic by Dr Daniel Sing 2 weeks ago. The lady owner did not
want the whole ear lobe plus tumour removed as advised by me. My
reason was that the large tumour looked cancerous and could have had
spread further. It will recur if cancerous. Removal of the ear lobe
and tumour would save the owner money and stress. Since no biopsy is
done pre-op and no histology of the tumour is done post-op (to save
medical costs), I cannot be 100% sure. If cancerous, the ear tumour
will recur within 8 weeks.

As the Goffin’s Cockatoo is quite energetic, inquisitive and intelligent, a lot of room is imperative. Allow them to fly freely around the home during the at day, and for night time they should have a large, spacious cage.
These cockatoos should have a lot of free room.
The biggest threats are some of those common dangers to all parrots – cold temperatures, drafts, toxic fumes, excessive heat and lack of ventilation. This, as well as good hygiene and diet, should always be under control.
Personality & Behavior
High intelligence as well as an affectionate -but often spoiled- personality are the main traits of Goffin’s cockatoos. They can often act like drama queens (and kings) showing you loud and clear that things are not as they want them to be. They also tend to bond deeply to a single person in the home and then act grumpy and territorial towards other family members. These traits are generally evened out with their sociable and loving side, and the endless fun and goofy antics.
------------------------
Goffin’s cockatoos are almost completely mono colored, but nevertheless cute and beautiful parrots. They are entirely white, with black feet and a gray beak. A small spot between the eye and the beak is colored in bright pink, which serves as a distinct marking. There is also a slight yellow tone on the underside of the tail and wings. Despite the lack of exotic patterns and striking colors, this cockatoo is equally pretty and captivates with its graceful, gentle look.
With its gentle and elegant look, the Goffin’s cockatoo offers a welcome change from all the exotic and brightly colored parrots.
A varied natural diet that consists of different fruits, seeds, nuts and palm flowers, is closely resembled in the standard commercial seed mixes designed for cockatoos. This should be supplemented with a regular addition of fresh fruits and vegetables, such as spinach, kale, cabbage, apples, oranges, and bananas. As these cockatoos are avid chewers, a cuttlebone is a smart choice – it helps keep the beak trimmed, and serves as an important dose of calcium and other vitamins.
When first bred in captivity, the Goffin’s Cockatoo endurance and ability to adapt were praised. They are generally very healthy and hardy birds. The biggest threats are some of those common dangers to all parrots – cold temperatures, drafts, toxic fumes, excessive heat and lack of ventilation. This, as well as good hygiene and diet, should always be under control.
As the Goffin’s Cockatoo is quite energetic, inquisitive and intelligent, a lot of room is imperative. Allow them to fly freely around the home during the at day, and for night time they should have a large, spacious cage.
These cockatoos should have a lot of free room. Their size and inquisitive personality should be taken into account.
High intelligence as well as an affectionate -but often spoiled- personality are the main traits of Goffin’s cockatoos. They can often act like drama queens (and kings) showing you loud and clear that things are not as they want them to be. They also tend to bond deeply to a single person in the home and then act grumpy and territorial towards other family members. These traits are generally evened out with their sociable and loving side, and the endless fun and goofy antics. Without a doubt, the Goffin’s cockatoo can become a funny and loving addition to every family.
-------------------------
Not all can mimic human voice or noise of machines etc.
It is important to tame a Goffin Cockatoo. They can be terribly noisy at times that can be subdued by proper training. These birds are smart, witty, affectionate, inquisitive, active and playful. Some Goffin Cockatoos are extensive talkers. But it would be a mistake to think a Goffin Cockatoo will automatically learn to speak. Some never learn, others only a couple words and yet others will learn a large array of birds. Generally the Goffin Cockatoo is not regarded as a talking parrot, though they can be very loud. Some owners say they scream in a way similar to many Amazons.
The Goffin Cockatoo is an excellent choice for families as they are usually great with children. It should be noted that as with most of the larger parrots, the Goffin Cockatoo can get quite loud. Because they are intelligent and social creatures the Goffin Cockatoo can be demanding of their owner's attention.
One of the greatest joys in owning a Goffin Cockatoo is receiving their snuggles and cuddles, but they expect to receive as much love and affection as they give. Some Goffin have been known to talk extensively, but this is not the norm.
