A most important link right now---fofrescue.org This goes to our website. Click on the line for pre-registration. If you can't find that, put "catathon" in the search bar and it'll come up!
The reason we like pre-registrations--it saves time! If you even think you may put in a bid, just put that pre-registration in! It'll save time on the phone--you won't have to answer so many questions with each phone call. And by the way, to make a bid, simply call 419-393-2400. We will have 8 phone people working that day! And if you don't pre-register but have a desire to bid during the Catathon......that's ok too! Mark your calendar for June 24th!
The 5 kittens from the back room are now in Cat's Corner Room with lots of "out" time to explore the Main Area. They just took right off and made themselves at home. Very brave babies! They will spend their nights yet in their room so we can make sure all is well, tummies are full.
Callisynne's kittens also had quite a bit of time in the Main Area yesterday and today. They too are doing good. Their appetites are huge--gobble machines!
Wanted to let you know that Steve and I and some of our family will be leaving tomorrow to go right over the Kentucky border. We are visiting the Ark Encounter. It's a life-size Noah's Ark with lots of history and stories. It's 510 feet long, 85 feet wide and 51 feet high! We're excited to see this. Then on Friday we will be having super fun at the Screaming Eagle Aerial Adventures. There's zip lines, sky bridges and free fall jumps. Two of the zips are 2,000 feet long! We'll be back late Friday. Connie D will be doing my breakfast in the morning. Donna will help. Connie S will care for my mom.
I'd like to give a big thanks to some great people!
FFRC surgery--Megan, Dawn E, Pablo, Becky M--these volunteers helped with post-op.
Dance Recital Concessions--Patrick & Vicki, Edna, Megan, Angie & Bill, Sarah & Brian for And a huge thanks to Elizabeth for taking over this event to help FFRC. The concessions profited $675!

And remember, any donation made to FFRC right now, made in the name of Catathon will have a big punch to it, thanks to an anonymous donor. If you donate $10, it becomes $40. A $50 becomes $200, etc! This will go on until Thursday, the 21st, till noon! You can send a check or paypal--just be sure it's marked for catathon!
We had 2 more adoptions!
Paislie went to a home where there's another past FFRC cat. I think she is going to continue to be well loved! Such a fun cat--loves to chase everything, especially ping pong balls (we sent some home with her!)
Tizzle went to her new home too! She has a cat friend there too. Her new family was very excited about having Tizzle in their home!
Thanks to you all. YOU are what makes this FFRC possible. Enjoy this great day!
