Oh-oh---the Niners are exploring more and more! It seems like many will be a bit of long furred kitties. They are all so very sweet. Because they have mama to love on them and people who love them, these should be extra friendly kittens. They are now 3 1/2 weeks old.
I do need to let you know that our Granpa Guddu has passed away. He arrived here on April 1 and so was here for 2 weeks. When he first arrived, he just was so happy and hungry. He ate really good and loved to show us his sweet side and to take all the hugs and holdings that he could get. The last few days have been rough for him. His appetite virtually disappeared and we were syringe feeding him and giving SQ fluids. But....Guddu was tired and past away in his sleep this morning. He had many "we love you, Guddu's" especially this past week. I will focus on the fact that he was loved and he KNEW it. And I'm glad, after being abandoned, that we had the privilege of having him here at FFRC. He was a real gem.
Wednesday was a super busy day for us. Dr. Darcy was here and did physicals on as many cats as we could get. Because I always get requests as to who we did, I'll do a quick list!
Covies: Mayor Anony, August, Charlie, Jackson, LeLe, Lucas, Marcus, Muffin, Oliver, Rowland, Rory, Sevaun, Soyboy, Sylvan, Timothy and Victor. The only two that we couldn't get were Jersey and Nikka.
Porchies/Barnies/Firecats: Azar, Ceasar, Fabio, Jimmy James, Leonard, Mew, Olaf, PB, Sargent, Shamballie, Whiskers, Zavatar, Rena, Harvey/Zippy and Kerry
All received their distemper vaccines, a wormer, flea prevention, nails trimmed, ears cleaned, weighed and their physical. Many were brushed/combed out.
We do have a few that need dentals, which we will schedule: Marcus, Rowland, Rory, Fabio, Zavator, Kerry. The wait list is: Mayor Anony and Charlie.
All in all, it was a great day--was fairly warm, had some sunshine and by the end of this day we were thoroughly covered in cat fur! Many thanks to Dr. Darcy, Lynnette, Eaglewatcher, LJ and Bedheadsdad for your help.
TJ was officially adopted yesterday. She is a bit shy, so I showed her to the cam and then she went into a crate to be ready. My hope is that her new mama will win her heart over completely and TJ will lose that shyness. I think it can be done!
We saw Forte two days ago. He came and visited to get his last vaccine. Oh my goodness, his new mama sure loves him! And he is indeed a big hit with the staff at the Assisted Living Home. He's a perfect fit!
Our new girl, Snowflake is improving each day. Her appetite is picking up and is now able to eat by herself. We no longer give her slurry food--she's managing to eat can food fairly well. It appears (Dr. Darcy looked at her) that she has had a previous hit by car, probable upper jaw injury. Her teeth alignment isn't too good. We will keep an eye on this and if needed, have the two teeth removed that is holding her mouth open a bit. Time will tell. Right now we want to focus on getting her healthy. She was up in Main Area for about 45 minutes this morning. She's a real sweetie girl.
