Wow--lots of thanks to give! Six of the 8 items were donated by our FFRC friends. The other 2 items were donated by the FFRC cats! (Derecho and Coralie took Pania and a couple kitties--to teach them how to do it--went shopping! ) Thanks friends and cats! Many thanks to the mods for the video and for pumping this sale. And also to the admins. and Canton for doing PR on our pages.  Plus a bushel of thanks to those that bought tickets--585 tickets bought in all!  And to those that provided the consolation prizes.  Marcia and Lynnette counted tickets--big thanks. Wow--it sure takes a village of people to make these fun-raisers so successful! 

I've been asked about our Purina Points project.  This is like "free money" to FFRC. We no longer have to cut those Purina circles. Here's how to do it:
Mail your receipt to FFRC     OR
Take a photo of your receipt.  Be sure the entire receipt is in the frame. The picture must show: Retailer's name or log, date of transaction, time of transaction, total amount of transaction & all participating Purina products.
Mail your photo to ffrcscrip@gmail.com

If you are submitting a Chewy receipt, you will need to log into your account, under the Your Account tab, you will click on Orders.  Find your order, click on Details and print this receipt.  You can then send this to: ffrcscrip@gmail.com.  If you need more info, please mail that same email address with your questions.  Many thanks!

Short blog but had to give my thanks. Now it's off to get those 6 newbie kittens down on the floor! It's time they got to rock and roll! Names will be given soon.
