We had quite a few adoptions! Those that left on 1/13 were: Pendy and Pickles together, Ponce De Leon, Charlie, Linzee, Azzilee and Tyler. Those that left on 1/14 were Purrfloof and Tang. I've heard from some of the families already and all sounds like the kittens went right in and made themselves at home! That is why I like free-ranging cats and kittens here at FFRC. They get so use to shop vacs, people, commotion, noises, dogs, kids. Makes for easier transitions into their homes.
We have one adoption today. Milton will leave about 1:00. And Glory Joy will now leave on Friday. We're still working on Jabberwocky.
We had a wonderful Flash Sale yesterday, by Mich and Vern. Many thanks to them, our Flash Mods, all mods that helped let everyone know about it, to all those that provided the items for the sale and to all those that purchased the items. These Flash Sales make a big difference to FFRC. This sale made a bit over $1,800-------wow, wow, wow!! I just checked with Steve and this is enough to get our latest propane and electric bill paid. Isn't that just wonderful?! I am very grateful.
And......more good news. A thousand giant thanks to all those that contributed to our WiFi fund! We made it and with some to spare. We will also be purchasing with this money the warranty. In the past, this warranty has saved us alot of money when things aren't working right. The new equipment is now in and it's amazing the difference in our WiFi. Now, when you come and visit, you won't have trouble getting onto the WiFi! Any extra monies on top of this will be set aside for a possible smaller project. Again, I am grateful!
I've gotten behind on our thank yous, so we need to catch up! Many thanks to:

Monday is our next HumaneOhio surgery date. We have a very packed schedule.
Sunday-Weds, Jan. 27 to 30th is our first 2019 Fun-Raiser. Wait'll you see the items!
Plus, we want to have another Quickie Flash Sale soon for the next group of Joni's Tiles.
These kittens here have such great adult cats to help them with growing up. Not only Monique, Singita and Paw Paw, they also have the teenager Mr. Anderson. He is enjoying snuggle time with them.
As of today, the back Thumper's Room is shut down. That hasn't happened for several months. All kittens are now in the Main Area. We have rearranged June's Room to make a really nice night time room for Hatima and Ramsay. They spent their first night there last night and all went well. That leaves Cat's Corner Room now open so we can feed and gather the smaller kittens for checking on them and their extra meals.
Muppi is doing great. Her ears are healing and she has good balance. Next week we will remove her sutures. The newer 6 pack of Abel black kittens are super. They really are all very sweet. As little as they are they sure do zoom all over the place! We are slowly learning their names!
We also have a coming up date too. You all know that we love to attend the OVMA (Ohio Veterinary Medical Association's big conference called the Midwest Veterinary Conference. It's jam packed full of educational classes. Those attending can pick and choose which classes are of interest individually. I was able to reserve 2 hotel rooms--this hotel is connected to the conference hall. We would like to go on Thursday and come back on Saturday (Feb. 21-23). We can attend 3 classes on Thursday, 6 on Friday and 3 on Saturday. There also is a wonderful Exhibit Hall with many medical/pet related booths to visit.
