When I think of this "thing" called FFRC Nation, it makes my heart swell and I get such an unbelievable feeling of pleasure, friendship and gratitude. If someone would've told me 3 years ago about the place where FFRC is at now, I would've been in doubt. But the friendships made is unbelievable. We literally have friends everywhere in the world. The sense of commitment to FFRC is still very strong in me--I love this rescue center and will continue to do what I can to bring about good things for cats. I have a force of people that "have my back" and it gives me courage and stableness that we can continue our mission. For all of this....I give you my thanks on this special day.

I talked to Dr. Darcy yesterday late afternoon. It appears we may not now find out Ernest's biopsy until tomorrow. Ernest isn't worried, so I believe that we shouldn't either. The kittens and cats had a wonderful turkey breakfast this morning. The Covies and Barnies and Porchies did as well. Every piece was eaten with pleasure! Magenta's turkey (yes, it was bought with her gift card) is now done and is waiting to be cut up. More turkey coming up!
Okay, Putter--you're turn. He told me this morning that he has something to say. It's your turn, Putter boy! "The supreme happiness in life is the conviction that we are loved" by Victor Hugo. So, I believe what Putter is saying is that he is hoping for each and every cat that enters our door, a lifetime of love.
Kiara: This is what happens after eating a belly full of turkey!
