Purresa and Purr kittens spent the night out of their room last night. Dahney and her D kittens also were out last night. They did great. Shaling and her kittens are doing super too. That litter is still in Dodger's Pen, but those little rascally kittens have figured out how to crawl out of the high sides. Down, they plop on the cushioned bench we put in front of the doorway area. Then they've figured out how to get back into the pen. The first one to do this was Fayth, the little calico kitten. Such an adventure for them. They are so little yet--they will be just 5 weeks old this Friday.
Boomer is "helping" me type. I've had to go back and delete many mistakes, thanks to him! Such a sweet boy. We've heard from Angie & Bill who adopted Hoops and YoYo. All is great--they have a very busy and active home now! Durell and Dolan are also instigators--they love to chase and chew on the tails of the other kittens. Then they run!
Daymo, Emma Lou and Ida Lou spent their first night out of their pen last night. These 3 kittens are in a constant state of play! Such a nice looking litter too. Our 3 oldsters are feeling good. All 3 have been maintaining their weight. Putter has
perfected the "stare down" and gives it to the kittens all the time. It's fun to watch the interaction between the adults and the kittens.
We have new t-shirts ordered for FFRC. There will be 3 colors: lake (a soft grey), raspberry and green. They'll be in the first of June. Unfortunately, we could only get sizes from small to 2XL. When they arrive, I'll show them to you. If anyone is interested at that time, we'll get them in the
mail to you.
We've heard from the family that adopted Dixon. His new name is Milano and he's doing great. Already getting along good with their Oreo cat.
We had BOXES last night. We're receiving items for the Catathon too. It won't be long until we start organizing the baskets and figuring out what items go in the baskets, which ones will be sold individually for the auction and which ones will be sold on the tables that will be here for our visitors at the Catathon. I am deeply grateful for each and every item that we receive for the Catathon and for FFRC's use. IF you are interested in sending anything for the Catathon, please have it here by June 1st. At that time, we will be going full-force on plans!
