Let's get some updating done!
Both Banjo and Bruno are now in the Main Area and feeling very comfortable. Bruno is doing good in his dental recovery and is eating. We want to get some weight on him. Banjo joins right in with the kittens for mealtimes. They both have checked every corner out and seem to be satisfied. Banjo is now ready to be adopted. He's a full bred Persian with red/white fur and is 1 1/2 years old. Very sweet boy. His fur is in the process of growing out.
We took in two returnees. It's Kubu and Kandan. They were born 1/9/18 and originally arrived at 11 weeks of age. They are twins! They were adopted 4/6. Due to allergies in the family, they needed to come back. And that's ok.........that's what we do here. Both are gold tigers but there's a small difference! Kubu has an all gold muzzle and Kandan has a white muzzle. Both boys are super sweet. And today, they came up into the Main Area by themselves. They may be a little nervous today but they seem to be adjusting. These boys are super playful!
Remember the black cat that we took in---he had been up in an Elm tree for 4 days? He now has a name.....Binx! He is 14 months old, born 8/25/17. He has a double condo and loves to play. More info later.
Tomorrow we are having another mini-flash sale. It's at 11:00 and will be for leggydews, biggeydews and CJ crocheted blankies. It'll be a short sale--hope you can join us. These items are great too for Christmas gifts!
Tuesday is our next HumaneOhio surgery date. It's a full schedule so will keep us busy. This coming Saturday, 11/10 is our next FFRC surgery day. We're heading on towards our 1,000 spay/neuter goal!

We have names for the latest 7 new arrivals. Six of these 7 arrived on 10/30. The 7th one arrived 11/1. Here's their names:
Agnes--grey tiger/ASH, female Being fostered with Auntie Peggy to be friends for Jacob.
Becky--brown tiger, female
Bronco--brown tiger, male
Gidget--gray tiger/white, female
Griffin--gray tiger/white, male (dot on nose)
Tyler--brown tiger/white, male
Turbo--light brown tiger/white, male
It appears that 5 of them are littermates and Griffin and Turbo are from the same litter. They all came from the same place--a farm. The owner will be bringing 5 cats in on Tuesday for spays. He's working on getting all of his cats neutered/spayed! These kittens are on the floor of back Thumper's Room.
The Persian babies are now 4 weeks old. They can stand up and toddle around without their tummies dragging! Their eyes are huge and all seem in good health. We have people interested in some of these kittens but we won't put firm holds on them until they are 5 weeks old.
We had an adoption on 11/2! Cee Cee went to her new home. She will have a cat friend in the family. I've seen pictures already and Cee Cee is adjusting nicely. More adoptions coming up!
Have you seen Sinbad lately? He's zooming around! His pinned leg apparently is healing nicely as he is now so much more mobile! He's moving about smoothly and is playing! It's so nice to see this. On our FFRC surgery date 11/10, his front leg that has complete nerve damage will be removed. He will no longer have to drag it about. I'm quite sure March and Cashew have told him how much easier it will be! He's a great cat and will be adoptable!
