Oh my goodness--the Catathon is a mere 2 weeks away!! That's just 14 days......my tummy is getting the shakies. We are working hard each day to get all the lists of things to do, completed!
Remember to check out all the Baskets and the other Items on our website at fofrescue.org A simple click will lead you to the way of discovering all the items within the Baskets and what the Big Big Ticket Items are and the Big Ticket Items, plus the Small Big Ticket Items. I know....what strange names. We started this years ago and cannot change it now! You'll also find the times of each round (we have 7).
Next week on June 17, Sunday starts the Catathon Fun-Raiser. You'll soon be seeing what these 10 awesome items are! Amazing stuff! The Fun-Raiser ends on the 20th at 9 am. That gives us time to get the tickets completed and ready. The winning tickets are pulled during the Catathon--2 for each of the Rounds 2 thru 6. In Round 7, we will have Consolation Prizes!
Don't forget.....you can pre-register till noon on June 21. It'll sure help the phone people--they won't need so much information from you when you call. If you haven't pre-registered and you see something you want to bid on, that's still ok.
We have thanks to give!

James R--donation to FFRC
Shannon S--donation for the care of Victor, Jackson II and all of their friends

We had surgery yesterday but had a very light surgery schedule. However, we were able to get quite a few physicals in.
Purduff--neutered, physical good, no problems
Callisynne--spayed, physical good, all is fine
Nyota--spayed, physical good, burn wounds look great, fur is coming back in
Here's the physicals we did:
Camvi--good physical, heart good, teeth good
Cutie--good physical, will work on her ears again, teeth/heart good
Derecho--good physical, has a little teeth tartar but no action needed
Harvest--our oldster, needs a dental (she has been back about 3-4 weeks)
Helga--physical good, heart/teeth good. A little gingivitis--try dental treats
Paislie--physical good, heart/teeth good, very mild gingivitis--try dental treats
Jones--physical good! And of course his heart is good!
Cashew--physical good. Continue current treatment of injured paw
Bart--physical good. Possible femoral head or knee fracture, but too young to do anything at the moment. He's putting weight on it and may just do fine. Time will tell. Wound is healing.
Many thanks to Gusti for providing the drinks for surgery and to Joyce D for providing the pizza and bread sticks. So very kind of you both.
We've had 4 adoptions!
Sizzle--was adopted 6/9. He went into a home where there's a special boy who dearly loves cats and wants a sweet cat to love him.
Wellington--was adopted 6/9. Went into a wonderful home. He was loved before he even went out the door!
Zino & Purfudd were adopted together on 6/10. They went into a home that has a cat already. A very nice family. I've already heard back and the word is--both kittens are doing fine!
We should have another adoption tomorrow morning around 8 am.
Zurple, Zoolove, Cashew, Bart and Sherry are now out and about in the Main Area. They are doing very well and have fit right in.
Toasty is now on the floor in the back Thumper's Room. He's feeling good and is eating good. We have also brought up Miss Muffin from the Cove. She seems to have had a several episodes where she just wanders around, not real aware of her surroundings. We will see if she's happy being in the rescue center. She sure has gained weight from when she first arrived. Such a sweet girl.
Have a wonderful week!
