We now have concrete! Dion came yesterday with the Amish crew and the concrete is now done for the new area. The slab for The House that Jonah Built is now done and the patio in front of it all is also done. The drainage for rain will be just fine! Now to let it sit for a week and harden all the way. The Covies sure enjoyed watching. The Porchies and chickens decided to do some artwork, but it was troweled smooth again. Now we play the waiting game!
Yesterday was another Dental Day. It didn't quite turn out the way it was planned. Honey and Devonta went up. Donna and Larry took them up. Martha L brought Honey back and Donna/Larry brought Davonta back. Honey actually had to have her dental cancelled because Devonta's took the entire time slots. We will reschedule Honey and get caught back up again. Devonta had a very long day but is doing a bit better this morning.
Friday is a big day. We have 2 cats going up for Dentals--Sevaun and Riley. And also Magic will be going up for his second surgery. They don't have to have the 3 cats until 10:00, so I will take all 3 up and stay for their surgeries. Then will bring all 3 home. Next week the Dentals will be Derecho, Honey, LeLe and Mew.

We had an adoption yesterday. Lynn was adopted by Lynnette! Remember she couldn't resist him from the day he arrived! He loves her already.
We took in a new cat yesterday. His name is Mixo, pronounced Mee-shoo. His name is from one of the Name a Cat. His name means "dawn". He spent the winter outside. A friend had seen him and asked FFRC to take him on. He's about 14 months old. His birthday is 2/19/14. He is a siamese mix with chocolate points. Very handsome. After his bath, his fur was fluffy! Nice personality. Is neutered. He's been tested, vaccinated, wormed & bathed. Soon we will let him out to start exploring in the front Thumper's Room.
The 5 gold kittens are doing great. Their birthday is 4/11/15. Clarissa's kittens are also doing great. Their birthday is 3/30/14. Won't be long until we will need to move the Clarissa group up to Cat's Corner Room.
That little Magic--he's a stinker! He and Milo play so rough together. Magic runs up to him and nips his hiney. Milo rolls Magic with a thump. Both part ways and then--crash--they run at each other and knock each other down. After that, it's time for a bear hug on each other that results in light belly kicking. Milo is probably 4 times bigger than Magic but they sure do play good together and have so much fun. He and Trucker are still bestest of friends though.
We have May 16th as our next surgical date. June 5,6,7 are the Dance Recital dates where we organize and run the concession stand. This is a fundraiser for us.
