We had another adoption yesterday. This was for a white Persian cat that we adopted out quite some time ago--her name is Thia. We were able to get her to her new home the very next day after arrival. We had this pre-arranged so the changes would be minimal. The new family will check in later this week with an update.
We also had another returnee. Scotia. He is a long hair orange cat that had originally arrived 2/89/18. His birthday is 11/14/16. He was brought in after a person kicked him off his porch. Scotia is super nice. He's in the Welcome Room right now, keeping track of the ins and outs. He returned 11/23/18 -- the family's youngest child was having major health issues and the doctor thought it best not to subject him to a cat. So.....Scotia is back. And we're fine with that. We will find another home for this sweet boy.
The S litter has a bit of a cold. Between brushing/grooming the persian babies, keeping the P litter happy and brushed and fed plus taking extra care of the S litter, they've kept us hopping. Hence...the reason this blog is late. We'll get all things caught up!
Today, Dion from Barth Builder's was here. He will replace 3 of the big windows in Kitty City. This was much needed as the wood on the outside was rotten and caused the window panes to slip out of their groove, allowing lots of cold air into the building. Can't have that as this building is majorly used for many reasons, including storage. In the spring (when it's warmer), he will put vinyl on the one wall outside to preserve the wood.
Many thanks to all who made our Quickie Flash Sale a success on Monday. We made $369 on this sale which was put towards the distemper and bordetella vaccines that we very much need. These vaccines are used so quickly because of all the kitties.
We had BOXES on Sunday afternoon! Many heartfelt thanks for helping us with supplies.

We have become trees to the P litter! Remember these were the kittens that were found up in a tree......well, they still love to climb. When we walk into the front Thumper's Room, up they go--all 4 right up our legs. And then they cry and cry--help me down! So sweet, so friendly. One of these babies are already on a hold.
It's hard to lose our cats. The fact is some of them are getting older. Yesterday, we lost Muffin, a sweet, wonderful Covie. Muffin was such a gentle girl. She's had some issues lately. Yesterday she was brought up to be inside to be looked at again. We realized that she had a fairly large growth in her abdomen.

The Persians have reached a milestone! As of today, all 6 babies are 1 pound! Wow--they are pokie growers. But, all are healthy, happy and so playful. When we walk into the room, many times, they come running to be picked up and held. They are receiving daily grooming and twice a day eye washes.
The babies can see--Monique's kittens have their eyes wide open! The world is their's now! These two babies--Cornelo and Rocky are so so round. Monique is a wonderful mama.
