We have flat cats. Yes, that's what a cat does when they're hot--stretch waaaay out on the ground to help stay cool. Yesterday I counted 4 flat cats on the sidewalks, all at one time. It got to 96 degrees yesterday and is suppose to be 92 today. While I love the heat, it's a bit much with the high humidity. Autumn will be upon us soon.
It's been 5 days since we've had to bathe Viola's kittens! And they are still clean today! Viola is turning into an all around good mama. She is so laid back. Yesterday and already this morning, her pen door is left open and she just goes in and out as she pleases. She is a gentle girl.
The Covies are doing great. We usually let them out every Friday and Sunday. Connie D is an expert at getting them all back in again. They have 3 good fans blowing to help keep them cool.
I love seeing the friendship that has developed between Ming and Cozarelii. So content. They are in the same room together every night. It's good for cats to have special friends.
We had BOXES last night. A big appreciation is in order! I DO appreciate you.

Yesterday we had 2 more guests arrive. They are Michelle/crittercat and her husband Vincent. They will be staying until Friday. Beth/eaglewatcher is also still here. Beth is syringe feeding the babies during the day--a huge help!
Today we will be moving McSplash, McSplish and Teddy Bear to the big silver pen in the back Thumper's Room. They need to be together, since Teddy Bear lost his friend. The 4 cats that are already in this room are doing good. That's the mama cat and 3 kittens that Paul brought in.
Merri LOVES to be carried around. Once you have her, she's reluctant to let you put her down. She has a wonderful way of reaching up to you to keep holding her! She and Jersey still spend some time together in the Kitty Campus Room.
The cats that are on hold are: Kwee, Sammie, Fiona and Beartoe. There's a couple others in the works, but not complete yet.
