We had another 2 adoptions that are going good. Purresa and Dunakin were adopted together. Sunday morning, I took them into Kitty City, to see if Purresa would get along with Dunakin without the kittens around, so Purresa wouldn't be in "mommy mode". A couple had come about 3 weeks ago and liked the 2 of them, as they have always been fond of short haired black cats. I was holding my breath, but all is well. Heard from the family 2 times now and people and cats are getting along just fine. I'm so thankful for that...a good home for 2 wonderful cats.
Our new kitten, Bomber, is doing awesome. He's now out and about with the rest of the kitty crew. His toes are quite astounding--he has a fistful on each foot! What a great personality. The 4 black and 1 black/white litter are out also quite a bit now. They also have names! The 2 girls are Faleen and Faleena. The 2 boys are Raymond and Raymondo. The black/white (female) is Floria. Five very sweet kittens. All 4 black kittens are absolutely identical. So, Faleena and Raymondo have a bit of a shaved patch on their tummies to tell all 4 of them apart.
The new t-shirts for FFRC will be in very soon. We'll keep you posted, in case you are interested. Three neat colors--apple green, raspberry and lake (blue/grey). On the front, it says: Life is Great. Cats make it better. Also has 3 small pictures--a cat face, ball of yarn and a pawprint. On the back, is says: Friends of Felines' Rescue Center with the address on it. These shirts are of very good quality. They come in sizes small to 3XLG. As soon as they come in, I will show you them on the webcam. If you'd like to order, you can then send an order thru PayPal (no need to also e-mail me if payment is thru PayPal) or if by check will need to do an e-mail to hold a shirt for you.
We had BOXES last night! I'm a very grateful person for your support.

We are starting the big task of organizing things for the Catathon. Please know that we may "mix and match" items to make complete baskets. ALL items that have been sent WILL be involved in the catathon, either in the auction or on the table for sale items. I am deeply appreciative of all the support. Most folks, in their letters and notes, have mentioned that it's okay to use any item in any way that will be most advantageous to the Catathon. It's going to be an exciting event!
