Our 5 "college cats" are coming back today. We will get a full medical report of what happened while they were at the vet tech school. Dr. Don has called daily to keep me posted. I'll let you know tomorrow all the details of their check-ups.
Please remember, if you want to order the 2013 FFRC cookbook, you may want to do so soon. The link is: fofrescue.org/the-ffrc-cat-lovers-cookbook-for-2013/

The Covies are doing great out in Cat's Cove. We are getting Kitty City scrubbed top to bottom. The Covies love their spring/summer/fall home. We welcome our visitors to always visit them!
Thru the weekend, we will have many visitors here from the webcam. The first to arrive are Deb111 and WarpedinMn/Connie and hubby. They are all from MN. More visitors are coming. We love to have visitors!
The kitties are all doing great. Kitty Q's kittens and Catsparella's kittens are growing. They look good and sure love their mamas. Ruthie Ann continues to keep the 12 kittens in line, although I'm sure sometimes she thinks she's lost total control, when they're running so crazily from room to room!
We had BOXES last night! Many thanks for your support.

Tonight I'll be going to an education class about our laser equipment, at Dr. Pettigrew's office, so there won't be boxes.
Our 6 kittens that were with Kitty Q are doing good. We are syringe feeding them. What messy little kittens! They've already had a bath this morning. They are close to start eating on their own, but not quite yet. They'd love to be with Kitty Q and she would love it too, but they have made her very sore and we don't want that. So, we're playing mama cat again!
We have THREE more voting days left and we're still in first place!!! Please keep voting. It's so so exciting. We're planning on a party on Wednesday, here at the Rescue Center.
We're going to have a LIVE afghan auction on Saturday at 6:00 pm (FFRC time). Anyone interested in bidding on this afghan will need to do it on the CAM CHAT, so you must be signed in. Remember, if you're on a mobile unit, you may be 5-10 seconds behind. Please know that sometimes things get a little "buggy" too since we're dealing with the internet and ustream! Bids can be raised anywhere from $1 to $30. All that you'll need to do to bid, is to pop your amount there on the chat. Please, keep the chat to bids only during the live auction. That will help us to pick out the bids. This can be a lot of fun! The afghan that will be up for bid is the famous Cat on the Fence afghan. It's beautiful--black, grey and white, made by Theresa M's mom. The bidding will continue until there's a significant pause in the bidding, then we will give the Going once, going twice, going three times to............." !
Here's the beautiful afghan that will be up for LIVE afghan Saturday 6:00 pm (FFRC time).
