It's very peaceful here at the moment. Tummies are full, grooming is done and naps are going on. It's always interesting to walk around when so many are napping and see who is with who. They definitely pick their buddies. County was just at the door again, seeing if there were any flies to catch. It's become quite a game for him! Yesterday when we opened the window to the outdoor enclosure, Octavia was at it again--rolling up those cobwebs with her tongue and eating it. She obviously loves doing this!
Iams Company was here yesterday. They delivered TWO pallets of dry adult cat food. What a blessing for us. This is a tremendous help to the Rescue Center. We also heard from The World's Best Litter. They will be delivering the load of litter on June 1st. That will also be a very great day for us.
We had a visit from the Red Hat Ladies yesterday. We enjoyed having them. They each brought the rescue center some supplies. After visiting the cats and kittens inside (and having lots of pictures taken!), I took them out to Cat's Cove, which they enjoyed, as did the cats! We closed their visit with a tour of the farm grounds.
Our guests Gentlesong (Sylvia) and Leslie will be leaving today. We have so much enjoyed their visit. They both helped with several projects yesterday. This Friday, the Two Loons ladies, Kelly and Donna will be here. We have a CHANGE OF TIME for their jewelry show. Instead of 1:00 on Saturday, it will be 11:00. They will show their beautiful jewelry, including their FFRC line. Can't wait!
We had BOXES last night. Your support is overhelming to me. I would like to say a big thank you to you all.
