Our newest kitten has arrived--Sinbad, the cat we were expecting from Dr. P's office. He came on Tuesday afternoon. Sinbad has a pin in his right front leg. He's starting to bear weight on it. Tuesday night he spiked a fever. Dr. Darcy wanted him on antibiotics and by last night, his leg was much better. He was out of his pen a couple times now for 5-10 minute exercise times. Next month, his left front leg will be removed--there's absolutely no control on this leg as the nerve was damaged. He will get along just fine--he's tough and just happy to be able to play again! As he progresses, he will be out more. His birthday is 4/25/18.
Peppi is improving! Some of you may remember when sweet friendly Spiker first arrived. He grumbled, growled and hollered for two solid weeks before he realized that all was fine. And now look at him! Such a love. Peppi is kinda like this too. While she had been around 2 dogs, she didn't have much time with other cats. So, this is a bit overload for her. Each morning, we open the door to the front Thumper's Room to the Welcome Room and to the Main Area. She's been coming in just a few feet into the Main Area and actually seems fine with the cats that stroll thru "her" Front Thumper's Room. But.........today, she progressed! She came clear up to the Purple Office--that's a big achievement! Each day will get better. I just know she has it in her to accept the cats. Peppi has a terrific purr-er! Her and Spiker took a nap this morning side by side--so cute!
This coming weekend should see 5 adoptions! When this has happened, we will then be able to get Bravo and Bruno here. They are waiting for placement here. Bravo is the red/white 2 year old Persian and Bruno is the 11 year old white Persian. We still will have Telo yet that needs a home, but he will soon be in the Main Area! And that means we will then be able to put Singita and the babies down on the floor, in the blue pool!
We had BOXES on Tuesday--many thanks for your kindness and generosity. Our pantries thank you too!

Hatima, our little shine bright kitten is doing good. Her moderate CH doesn't bother her. She's a little toughie. She likes to hang with Ramsay. I truly think as she gets bigger, she will be up more and more. She's so tiny yet. She hasn't had a single "accident" since her arrival. We place her in the pottybox but she walks back to wherever she wants to go, by herself.
Good news--Giovanna has regained back a couple more ounces! That sweet girl is like the energizer bunny--she keeps on going! Jessie, our oldest oldster, is doing wonderful. She's a youngster at heart. Mitz has now left the Welcome Room and is in Main Area (again)! She spent a couple months hanging out in the Welcome Room and then one day decided she had enough. She's now everywhere (again!) in the Main Area. Kiara has taught Marilyn the value of warm laundry right out of the dryer! They both now are yellow table cats, awaiting the next load of warm laundry! Jones is doing great! It's so sweet to see him bound to us when he sees us coming!
An update on Smoochie: he's doing terrific! He loves life in general and gets along great with all 2,3 and 4 leggeds! He hasn't had a seizure for days now. His walk is a bit wobbly at times but so much better. His bite wound on top of his head is healing. His left eye that was also involved in being bitten is slowly healing too. What a sweet kitten.
We have more thanks to give!
