------------------------------
From the resident cats: Please help us with an upcoming spay/neuter Fun-Raiser!
Please join us for the Red, White and Blue Fun Raiser!
When you purchase a ticket, you will have the opportunity to cast a vote for any of the resident cats to be crowned "Cat of Liberty"!
As with other Fun Raisers, each ticket or vote is $5.
The voting will begin at 12:00 a.m. July 2 and end at 9a.m. July 5th FFRC time. The drawings will be held on July 6th following Boxes.
All the tickets purchased will be eligible for the 1st place drawing. The prize is a spectacular Red, White & Blue Afghan by Rosemary. The second place will be a drawing of those that voted for the cat crowned "Cat of Liberty." This person will receive a Sprocket picture of the "Cat of Liberty" and a vial of their fur. We will also have drawings for some fun and exciting consolation prizes.
The donations from this Fun Raiser will go towards our Spay/Neuter Fund.
Thank You from all the FFRC Kitties!

The kittens are all doing great. We have 2 surgery dates coming up in this next week. One is HumaneOhio and the other is here at FFRC. We will get all of our kittens spayed/neutered that are 2 lbs and up--there's lots of them.
We have 6 kittens on the floor in the back Thumper's Room. The 4 kittens that Peggy had been fostering are now here to stay. We have those 4: Pogo, JoBella, Rowdy and Batman. Plus there's Prentyss and Ximanga. They are one big happy family!
Farm news: our mama duck Oreo hatched out her ducklings. During the day, she and the ducklings scurry allover the farmyard eating bugs. At night, we put them back in their big pen for safety. We also have 15 new baby Guineahens. We have an assortment of lavender and purple ones! They arrived at just one day old. In Bella's Place (the doggie outdoor pen) is a big pen they are growing up in. All are doing fine but so so tiny yet.
Nyota continues to do great! What a turn for her. As she healed, so did her spirit. She now knows we (as in humans) can be kind and loving and she is soaking that up! She is frequently here in the purple office. I'm glad as that means I can pet her alot!
Livia and Neal are playing with a pompom together! Sabu and Brinn get in on the action by running and jumping on them! Chikandi also goes streaking by with a coil toy in her mouth. Zurple is doing her usual--rubbing on my ankles. I then of course, pick her up which is what she wants--such a lovely sweet kitten. Wonder just jumped down from the third level of Kuranda onto Chikandi!
Ramsay, Spiker and Lucie are here close by. They take turns being in my lap.
All is good here. Kittens are growing like crazy. The adults are fun too! I love how they get so silly and run and tear around. Happy cats. Take care and enjoy this wonderful Sunday.
