We are also still doing pre-registrations! This is simply filling out a form (will only take a minute!) --this will then make it easier and quicker should you call in with a bid wish on next Sunday during Catathon! This pre-registration is over on Thursday at noon.  We encourage anyone even thinking of bidding to do this. It's not necessary, but helpful.

We have some thank yous to give!
Logan, Sydney and Amanda had a lemonade stand for FFRC! So very kind of them and we appreciate the three kids!
Sean G--donation to FFRC for Nyota
Jarmo S--donation to FFRC
Fran D--donation to wish Queen Coralie a happy birthday!

We have received many donations for catathon because of the anonymous donor that will quadruple the amount--these names will be mentioned during the catathon!

We also had BOXES on Tuesday--we are grateful for your help.
Debbie & Annie--for TX basket--we got this slipped into the basket!!  Apricot Pecan bites & a miniature Texas blonde Pecan cake, 9 oz.
Craig & Brenda--15 cases of Fancy Feast kitten food, 6 cases of baby food, 3 bags Purina One, 3 bags of Purina One Kitten and 9 lg. containers Kitty Snackers

We had 3 adoptions yesterday!
Stephie--she went to a new home where she has been much anticipated! I do believe Stephie hand picked her new mama!
Dizzle and Twizzle--these two Izzle kittens went together to their new home. I've already seen pictures of them and they look oh so happy!

We have a new Porchie. His name is Winston. He's a year old with a birthday of 6/1/17.  He's been neutered, vaccinated, tested, etc and now has a place already as a Porchie. Winston is a grey silver tiger. A real sweetie and people greeter. It's nice to have him.

Tomorrow is an important day. It's a HumaneOhio spay/neuter day. We have a fairly full schedule. We love doing these events--anytime we can do spays/neuters for the public, it's a good day.

Neal has some buddies! I don't believe I introduced you to Neal though, here in the blog. Here goes: He is a grey marble/white kitten, arrived at 8 weeks old. His birthday is 4/15/18. He's absolutely a sweetie. He ran into trouble somewhere--his whiskers, eyebrows and bits of fur here and there on his face are singed. His whiskers are now starting to grow back.  He arrived 6/10.  A real nice kitten.

Neal's 3 new friends arrived 6/11. These are siblings and were relinquished because they were ill.  They also had many fleas. But, they are doing really well now. Their energy level is very high! Good food, antibiotics and no fleas does wonders! Here are their names (all Name a Cat names):
Virginia--female, torti, with a large crream spot on her head
Crocus--female, beige
Chikandi--female, beige  (bigger)
It won't be long until these 4 join everyone in the Main Area.

Bart is doing so well.  His leg is healing--we will see how things go with this as he gets bigger.  The end of his tail will need a short amputation but it is quite possible it will fall off by itself. Many times these heal without the bone showing. In that case, no surgery will be required! You can tell he's feeling good now.....he's a little play machine!

Our sweet Harvest is only 12 years old but seems like an old soul cat. And what a sweetie she is. She's getting special meals everyday. We also discovered that she likes to drink water (like Binker) from the faucet!

Enjoy this beautiful (and hot) day. It's going to be a very busy but fun week. If you have any questions about the Catathon, don't hesitate to email me or ask a chat mod!  Thanks!
