Ten kittens on my desk.  Ten kittens playing with the tape dispenser, pulling paper coming out of the copier, ripping off sheets of postie-notes, running off with my pens, jumping on the keyboard.  What energy they have! So, when you see mistakes on things that I do, please know when I say it's the cats fault, it really is!

We had our fun-raiser yesterday. I am so grateful for these.....they always help us pay on our bills.  Yesterdays was to help with our utility bills.  Here's the scoop on that event---

Fran D--donation for Janiecat's birthday!
Deborah S--donation to FFRC
Christopher S--donation to FFRC

Remember Kubu and Desi? I've received pictures of them and they are doing wonderful. "Both of them absolutely love to run around the apartment. They are best of friends and wrestle with each other frequently. Favorite toys are springs and anything with a feather. " Sounds like happy cats!

Tuesday is our next flash sale---it'll be a quickie one and will be at 11:00.  It'll be with Biggeydoos, crate pads and Catnap Blankies (the ones with the cat button!).  This will go to pay for another box of 30 FIV/Leukemia/Heartworm test kit.

We've had a few more adoptions!
9/16/19--it's official.  Biggby, Basil and Brandon were neutered and then adopted by a close person involved in their neuterings!  She took them home the weekend of the 14th to see how things would work out.  And it was wonderful.  They are keepers. 

9/19/19--Tinora was adopted this morning.  She went to a couple that we've known for quite some time.  Tinora was the lucky kitten to claim them and their home!  She will have 2 other cats in the home but 1 in particular will be her friend!

More adoptions coming up!  Later today, sweet Pepper will be adopted--about 3:45.  
Tomorrow, Doris Ann will be adopted in the morning. Ring will also go tomorrow, about 4:45. 
And then we have Angela being adopted 9/25 in early morning. Angelo, the brother, will be adopted also on 9/25, about 10:00.  Dadou will leave on 9/28 about 10:00.  Busy times!

Remember, we are now trying not to take on any new kittens or cats. And there's a very good reason.  My vacation is in a week.  If we took in a new cat now and it broke out in a virus during my vacation (due to incubation time), it would be hard for me to work on them. We have to always protect what we already have. 

Monday is our next HumaneOhio.  We will be sending Angela and Dadou for their spay/neuter so they can go next week. 

Have a great day.
