We had HumaneOhio this morning! We checked in 43 cats--24 females and 19 males! Our total now for 2017 is 732 surgeries! That breaks down to 430 females and 302 males! This time last year for 2016, we had done 320 surgeries! We have more than doubled that amount! And we have more to go! Check outs are at 5:30 ish this evening.
And we have names!
The "K" litter: (birthday is 9/11/17)
Kikae--grey tiger, female
Kestrel--brown tiger, male
Kester--grey tiger, male
The "P" litter: (birthday is 7/14/17)
Paula--brown tiger, DMH, female, 1 scarred eye
Pedro--brown tiger, male
Pilvi--grey tiger, female, 1 eye
Pauly--brown tiger, male
Hensley and Felicity are now doing fine from their dental surgeries. Felicity still sports her button on her chin. All the newbies that are here in the Main Area seem to be doing good. Although, we are feeding a gruel mix to them a couple times a day.
There's 8 kittens in the front Thumper's Room. These are the K litter and the P litter, plus little Pipkin. They are doing good--hoping to have them in the Main Area soon.
We took on a new teenager cat yesterday. His name is Jacen (a Name a Cat name). I believe he may be a littermate to Jude. Both of these cats were found at the Defiance Middle School Jude came last Tuesday and Jacen arrived yesterday--same size, same flea dander, same sweet personalities. Jacen melted my heart yesterday---the sidewalk going to the door is very long. I could see him sitting on the outside, staring inside at the children. I barely started walking up the sidewalk when I said "Hey Kitty!" and he turned, did the curly friendship tail pose and ran down the sidewalk. I opened the crate and he headed right for it and got in it! That was a wonderful thing for me! His birthday is 7/11/17.
We also were thrilled as we trapped 2 cats that were on the property. One was a new arrival--a dark brown tiger, female, so sweet. Her name is Chirper as she is a big talker. The other one is named Breeze. She was spotted about 3 weeks ago and is a tiger/slight torti. We've been feeding her by the Cove. Yesterday the trap was set and in she went this morning. She is a feral cat. Both of these cats went to HumaneOhio for their spays. That makes 3 cats caught in the last week. Now, all will be spayed/neutered!
We had BOXES last night! I am so grateful. We have been so low on so many items. Last night boxes helped alot. Many thanks!

Thursday is our Flash Sale! Let the fun begin! See you at 2:30 ish with Mich & Vern!
We are starting to get things ready for winter out on the farm yard and all the cat buildings. Takes quite a bit of work to get everything done--hoses have to be put away, all the "pretties" put in the winter shed, chairs/benches also in winter shed, supplies put in out at the barn, evespouts cleaned, leaves raked up, bushes trimmed---the list goes on and on. This week we'll be tackling this.
Take care and have a happy day! Have all the names of the cats memorized?! lol It's quite a job right now!
