We have been receiving donations to FFRC, in her memory. These donations will be compiled and then several ideas implemented, all in her memory. I've heard so many great stories that have involved Nikka while here at FFRC. She thoroughly loved Catstock. And I do believe she was involved in the great LBG heist!
A special thanks for remembering Nikka with your donations, your stories, your kind words and memories of her. This reinforces to me.........life is so very short, especially for Nikka. She was so young. My wish--she is hearing your awesome words of her. She had a great laugh--I'll bet she's enjoying all these stories! And what a thing to think about---let anyone close to you know that you appreciate them and you celebrate life, while that person is still here on earth! Sharing kindness now will make for many smiles--just like Nikka liked to smile!
We had BOXES Monday afternooon! Big thanks to you all! Your support is awesome!

We also had a HumaneOhio spay/neuter day on Monday. We sent 28 cats and kittens that day. 18 females and 10 males. Earlier in the week, we had 2 additional neuters thru vouchers. Our grand total now for 2018 is 498. This breaks down to 282 spays and 216 neuters! We want to keep it coming!
Two of the above spays were from FFRC--Tizzle and Twizzle went visiting to HumaneOhio. They are doing just fine. In fact, just yesterday morning I told them to slow it down. They were speeding a hundred miles an hour!
This Saturday we have our FFRC spay/neuter day. Our schedule is very light as many of the kittens did not make weight. We have kittens too for Dr. Darcy to look at. Especially Zorro, Cashew and Bart--all with various leg wounds.
We took on two new kittens. Their mama was killed by a large dog. These kittens were in danger of being nabbed by the same dog so was brought to FFRC. Their birthday is 5/7/18--they were just 4 weeks old upon arrival. They arrived on 6/4/18.

Many thanks too to Jody626. She was a day visitor and brought to FFRC--multiple Stephanie BUrgess items (will see in a flash sale), vinegar, bleach, great blanket throws, snackers for the vols, sponges, note cards, Belvita (!!), lots of pouches and can food for the cats, a beautiful dream catacher.
If you pull into the parking lot, you will now some a couple Green Guys! What is that?!! They are a gift from Dewitty. They are stand up safety green guys, with the word SLOW on them and a caution flag. We have them put together and placed alongside the parking lot. We need people to GO SLOW in that parking lot for the safety of the cats (and people!). Thanks, Dewitty.
Callisynne's kittens are coming along. Their appetites are picking up. They really are a cute bunch of babies! They love to bop each other and then skitter away!
We also have a visitor, Yvonnevdk who has had a week with us! She is our friend from Germany. Many thanks to her---she has helped us with lots of projects! A great friend--just ask the cats!
Nyota is doing awesome! She continues to be loose in the back Thumper's Room and will be spayed Saturday. Nyota will probably become a Covie. She is not comfortable around a lot of people and so having her in the Main Area would be very hard on her. However, I can already picture her--safe and sound, in the Cove--basking on the tables, rolling in the grass, enjoying the trees to climb--it'll be a good life for Nyota. And the best is that she will never have a worry about her safety again. Thanks to so many for caring for her and helping with her support.
Take care, have a really wonderful day. And remember....spread happiness and nice words to those around you. They will love it and it'll be one of those good things for you too!
