We've also heard from Leeann who adopted Sergei! He is a part of their family. He loves a lap and plays with Tang. They think he's very sweet and cuddly! I also heard from Mich and saw pictures of Peymon/Simon and Cheddar sitting together! I love hearing about our adoptions!
Update on Lynnette: she has been very busy meeting with insurance reps to get things settled about her housefire. It is a total loss but her insurance company is indeed there for her. They will be moving into a rented house soon (and completely furnished with rented furniture!) until her house can be replaced. She is grateful for your kindness, prayers and good thoughts. Her dog Minnie and 2 cats are doing good.
All is good here at FFRC, although extra busy right now. Vernon's appetite is picking up a bit. Emmit is a dear---such a playful, loving cat. Elsie is Elsie--climbing all over and waiting to be rescued! Derecho is mooching lots of chicken from Beth! Sea Turtle is completely happy in the mailroom. If we bring her out, she swats our ankles! Love that oldster. Samson Wolf has gained a good amount of weight! So far, so good on the poo without having to use meds! We keep a check on this. Alma made her way to the litterbox today---she is so so good about getting to the box. She is also doing good.
