Gene was indeed adopted to the family that has already adopted from FFRC before! He now has Olle the Hooligan, Screech, Icky (Ichabod) as his brothers. What an awesome group of cats! Gene is doing very well, just like we knew he would. Sure miss that rascal though!
This morning we had an adoption! Our wonderful Maya. A couple came last week specifically to see her with hopes of adopting her. Maya is our torti moderate CH kitty. It was clear immediately that Maya thought these people should adopt her! They came this morning to make it official. When Maya saw them again, she was so excited. It was wonderful to see this!

Only 8 more days until Valentine's Day! Such excitement is building to a tremendous level! I came out last night and just sat on the step to watch the cats and kittens. There were clusters of discussions going on. I couldn't hear what they were meowing about but words such as Valentine, crown, having clean ears, how to bat their eyes. I even saw some practicing some kind of swaying walk. I just am not sure what has gotten into them but something is going on for sure! I've threatened to withhold their catnip if they don't let me in on it. As soon as I know, I'll fill you in on the details!
And we have more thanks to give!

We took on a new cat. She's a female, about 9 months old. She was found outside, very very cold with not a speck of energy left in her---this was shown by her "faceplant", not able to even lift her head. Her name is Sprite. She's about 9 months old but came in only weighing 2.15---very emaciated/dehydrated. After giving fluids for 1 1/2 days, she was finally able to lap up some gruel by herself. At that point we were also able to draw blood for her leukemia/fiv/heartworm test--which was negative. Sprite today weighs 3.04 so she is starting to gain a bit of weight (from the fluids).
Today is a HumaneOhio surgery day! One of my favorite kind of days! I was a bit worried because of the snowfall last night. But...........we had 36 cats arrive. We checked in 20 females and 16 males. This makes our 2017 total at 103. This breaks down to 63 females and 40 males. The cats will be returning to FFRC late afternoon for the owners to pick up.
