We've had a message back from Robert who adopted Radar--this sweet kitten fit right in. So playful and follows Robert everywhere! All is good in Radar's world!
We had a very sad thing happen yesterday. We lost one of our cats. Kandan became acutely ill and passed away. He arrived originally with his twin brother Kabu on 3/27/18 at 11 weeks old. They were adopted together and had to be returned due to family allergies on 11/1/18. We had hoped these two brothers could be adopted again together. Yesterday he was seen in obvious distress. We immediately contacted Dr. Darcy and started treatments. It was known though that this boy was so ill and was not going to make it. But....we tried. He passed soon after discovering him. Dr. Darcy feels he had acute hepatitis. I've been asked sometimes.....why do you stand somewhere and just look and look. This is the reason--I constantly am looking at the cats and kittens. Even if I'm walking thru the rescue center, I'm watching, looking, observing. We know these cats and by watching them, if there's changes, we can usually catch it. And even so........not always as is the case with Kandan. These are the hard ones, when we lose a cat that the day before was running and eating and playing.
We've also heard back from Boaz, now called Bosey. Their two cats play together already and enjoy the hide & seek game! He is doing great and has fit right in too!
I know, I know.....we said we had our last of the 2018 Quickie Flash Sales. We've been asked if we could have one more because of the items we've opened at Boxes. Our Flashy Mods have agreed to help with this! Our very last 2018 Quickie Flash Sale is Monday at 11:00. Come join us!
We have more thanks!

Did you know that chatters can actually make a donation while watching the cam on YouTube? If a person makes a donation to FFRC thru YU, a banner with the amount and name is displayed. But........there's a fee involved. If you have a choice, paypal is more beneficial to FFRC as YT takes a 30% fee from the donation. Just thought you'd like to know!
We had an adoption! Scotia, the long hair handsome gold cat has found his home. We had an odd thing happen. He had been hanging out at my house door, obviously wanting in. He succeeded and seemed rather pleased with himself! We had had numerous inquiries about the persian kittens. So, I emailed some of these folks asking if a long hair cat would work. And it did! He found a home and is doing very well. Because he obviously wanted to be in a home, we did the adoption inside the house on 12/11. He's already settled in and is a happy boy.
