I have to apologize---I've gotten terribly behind in giving thanks. Just been an extra busy week. So, we will do major catch up here because it's very important to give thanks. Until Catathon, we will do BOXES at 5:30 to help with getting me in the house a tad bit early. Also, if you notice errors, don't hesitate to let me know!

Yesterday, we took in 2 kittens (4 weeks old). They do have a mama and owner IS getting her spayed ASAP. She had a litter of 4, 1 died at birth, 1 shortly later. The 2 left appear to be CH babies. One is gold tiger, one is black. Gold is maybe mild-mod. Not sure yet on the black one. But....the owners checked us out, which I loved. They wanted to be sure these kittens would be cared for. They brought the kittens here for care. I think the 2 babies were a bit much for them to care for as the mama didn't continue their care. A bit worried about the little black one---very small. They've been tested, wormed and capstarred. Each day will help as we help them get stronger and bigger.

Finally.....the weather cooperated and Ashlyn was able to blast the Cove clean from the winter's dirt! It looks wonderful. It took just minutes of the door being open for the cats to go in and reclaim their beloved Cove. Their playground looks good. New stone was put around the entire hundreds of feet of fencing---they like to run on this! They sure do love their jungle gym too!
We took in a new kitten two days ago --he's medium to long hair grey tiger, cute as a cuddle bug and about 8 1/2 weeks old. His name is Thandi (name a cat name), pronounced Tan-dee. He is a sweetie and is now in the main area. He is right now napping under a cushie. I'm sure he will make friends with Helen and Kieffer.

Today is the day that our moderator and friend, MKMouse will be picking up our new incoming CH cat. Her name is Bonni (for now). MK will keep her over this weekend at her home and then make the journey here on Monday. I'm sure she'll send us pics and give Bonni kisses from us all!
The kittens in the back Thumper's Room are doing good. Veronica is doing much better now that she is separated from Cleo and Poppy. The kittens are playing, climbing and learning to run. All tummies are round and full! They are doing really good eating on their own. They are using Poppy and Cleo as "foo-foo" mamas as their milk is pretty much dried up. All is good in their world!
