Turns out the concrete hasn't been poured yet--they've gotten very busy. But....we are on the schedule for early Friday morning. They will pour the extension for the parking lot, the sidewalk to the grey barn and to fix an area on the driveway around one of the drains.
I will not be here much today and Thursday for our family's remembrance time of Larry. But, the volunteers have things under control. They and the mods know they can reach me, if needed, anytime. Mom is covered too for her care. Thank you all for your kind words, thoughts and prayers.
The Bush Babies and mama are doing good. They all have nice round tummies. Cute little babies. They are in the top 2 pens of the back Thumper's Room. So little yet.
The Callisynne's litter is also doing super. They are definitely round too! Mama comes out for a bit of stretching her legs. The 2 kittens from the fire are looking good---no trouble with their legs. It's getting harder to tell the difference in their sizes!
New kittens---we also took on 3 wee ones--they are tested negative. A bit sick, were found by themselves with 2 other ones that were dead. The people have no idea what happened to the babies. They are thin, but much better today. 1 brown tiger, 1 black, 1 black/white All 3 are being treated with antibiotics.
We also have a new mama. She is a calico cat--simply found in someone's yard with her litter. The people there had no idea how/why they were there. She has 3 babies. These babies are 5 weeks old. We have 1 black, 1 brown tiger and 1 gold tiger--all sweet and all boys. They are doing very well and will be on the floor in the back Thumper's Room soon.
We had awesome BOXES Monday late afternoon! Big giant thanks!

Gutherie's new owner has already called. She so loves her new cat and Gutherie sure loves her already. Gutherie is already sleeping on the bed and taking laps in her new mom's lap!
Many of you already know we are missing Rena--our black/white Porchie. We have followed up all leads given to us, but none has led us to Rena. I just want her back here, safe and sound. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. She has been missing now for a week.
Dollop is doing good as a Covie. No problems there for him. Three new hens have arrived--all are Rhode Island Reds and have made the rooster very happy. He keeps good track of them.
We received a call from the Sheriff's late yesterday. A cat was seen in very poor condition under a car and appeared to be burned. Steve, Donna and I went over. She ran out from under the car limping badly and scooted under a big shed. After much finagling around, we were able to get her out from under the shed. She is indeed burned--much of her body has been singed. This cat breaks my heart. Her face has been burned--her ears, mouth, left eye, chin are involved. Her chest also has a burn. But the feet are the worse--all four feet are very burned. She's so thin, very dehydrated. Last night she was sedated, had lots of the singed fur brushed out, had her feet and whole body soaked in a warm bath and cleaned up. She is on pain meds, antibiotics, fluids. This morning she ate her breakfast. She is very shy but workable. She is negative for her tests for FIV and Leukemia. You will ask how this happened--this is unknown but I highly doubt this cat walked by herself into a fire situation. No matter---she is here now and we will protect her and help her heal. Please keep her in your good thoughts and prayers.
We are asking alot of you folks out there to help us with many situations. I thank you for being the kind of friends that I can ask this of. Please take good care.
