What is the definition of “FFRC Nation”?
It is a married couple spending their day off driving
hours and hours to bring a special kitten and his sister to Jacci so that they
may have the best life possible on earth.
It is the owner of a no kill, no cage rescue center making
sure a gravely ill cat is brought home from the vet and held in her arms as she
allows him to pass to the Rainbow Bridge with his heart full up with love and
caring.
It is the hundreds, nay thousands, of cammers all over the
world taking the time and effort to send healing love, light and energy to an
FFRC volunteer so he may have help surviving a health crisis.
It is a plea for help in chatters that will bring instant
and unselfish responses of prayer, advice and love.
It is a volunteer driving days to another cammer to bring
two adolescent feline brothers to their new Daddy.
It is people all over the world sending boxes and boxes of
needed items to Jacci and FFRC, sometimes before even Jacci knows she needs the
items.
It is moderators that spend countless hours to make sure
the FFRC chat is the bestest in the whole world.
It is the volunteers that work every day to clean, clean
and clean some more to insure FFRC is worthy of the many souls that live
there.
It is these same volunteers that stop in the middle of a
swipe of the mop to rub Derecho’s belly, bend down and be still when Ginger
jumps up and nestles at the back of their neck and stop what they are doing to
give Magenta another small bite of food for the eleventy-fourth time that day.
It is these same volunteers that, in each their own way,
have become essential to the well-being of FFRC.
It is the visitors that are awed by the many wonderful
feline creatures that come up to them and check them out for possible adoption
material. (Yes, the cats check the
VISITORS out!)
It is the strangers that have
stopped and picked up a cat hit by a car and brought them to Jacci because it
is known that at FFRC, miracles are the rule, not the exception.
It is the community of Defiance that stands behind Jacci
and helps her in whatever way they can.
It is the veterinarians around Defiance that accomplish
the impossible against huge odds.
It is the monetary donations/donators that hold the bills
at bay, who help Jacci and Steve sleep at night knowing their needs will be
met, one way or another.
It is the endless creativity and selflessness of the many
crafters that donate their projects for fund raisers.
It is Steve, Jacci’s husband, who supports her in her
passion.
It is the families of both Jacci and Steve with their
support as well.
It is the kitties themselves that seem to have spread the
word about FFRC and how this is the place to be if you want the best life you
could hope for.
It is you. It is
me. It is them. It is us.
This is The FFRC Nation.
