We have lots of visitors here for the Catathon! It's so very nice to see these friends.

After Catathon, we will have Neal, Chikandi, Crocus and Virginia come up to stay in the Main Area. They've been coming up for a quick run thru and playtime already.  But, it's time for them to come up to stay.

Nyota also came up to the Main Area today. We were just thrilled! I believe we will cancel the plans of her being a Covie as she seemed pretty comfortable. We'll let her take her time and do it at her pace. She loves to be held and cuddled and she truly seemed at ease with the other cats.  

We've taken on a new young adult. She's been hanging out at a yard--stayed and wouldn't leave! The family could not keep her and so brought her here to FFRC. She's another muted calico. Do you realize how many calicos we have taken in this year? And how many have been muted calicos?  Quite amazing.  Her name is Tillie Rose and is 2 years old. Her birthday is 5/16/16.  She arrived 6/18/18.  She's already in the Main Area and loves to be petted.  

Short blog but tomorrow is a big day! Hoping you all will join us for the fun!
