Great news! Coralie is on the move! Early this morning I was by the sink and happened to look out in the Welcome Room Office and there she was--staring at me. She went from the Back Thumper's Room to the Little Thumper's Room then to the Welcome Office! Joy, joy--I was thrilled! I brought her into the Main Area and when she saw her quilt (to be laid on the floor) she wiggled and wanted to be on it. Mid morning we took the quilt to the Kitty Kabana Room (she loves to bird-watch) and about 10 minutes later she had herself in the purple office! Happiness abounds--it is so wonderful to see her start to be mobile. Now this is very interesting too---(we have to talk potty business!)--today when she was in the litterbox, instead of just sitting and pottying, she raised herself up on her muscular parts of her two back "legs". I do believe she enjoyed that accomplishment!
Today at 3:00 is the close of our current blanket raffle. Then at 5:30 we will have boxes followed by the raffle at 6:00. We'll get to use our raffle drum to mix up the tickets! We have 7 awesome consolation prizes. Good luck to everyone!
We've had a name change. Fufi asked if she could have a new name. We gave her a new name, with the blessings of the shelter that she came from. Her new name is now Felicity. Rather fitting for this beautiful girl. She is doing great. She's camped out in Dodger's Pen the last two nights but during the day she's been out and about. Felicity can get in and out of the pen by herself whenever she wants to.

We had a visitor this morning who wants to adopt. She has chosen our sweet Emily! Next week sometime Emily will be going to her new home.
We took in a new cat yesterday. Her name is Jemima (a sponsored name). She came from a friend of when we had Earth Angel's. She's a calico cat, about 18 months old. She's been outside this winter and is really enjoying the warmth and cushie beds. The man who had her is trying very hard to get as many cats neutered/spayed as he can. Unfortunately she wasn't one of the first ones done and is now pregnant---very pregnant. Not realizing she is going to have kittens, he thought she had a stomach problem. So, he took her to the vets who took an abdominal x-ray only to find possibly 6 kittens. The vet thought within a week she would deliver. If Felicity gives up her Dodger's Pen soon (very soon!), we will let Jemima have Dodger's Pen to have her kittens in. She's a sweetie of a girl and is quickly adjusting to our FFRC life.
Keep on moving, Coralie!
