Fiver Friday is tomorrow.  This all day long event is simply, to help us with our Feliz Navidad Fund and to supplement our general medical fund. It stems from....if you have a Fiver and would like to donate that $5 (or more)  to help FFRC, please do!  You can pay by paypal or if you want to send a Fiver check, that is fine. Just email me though so we can add you into our figures.  An ongoing tally cat-board will be kept updated all day long. Stories will be told of present cats, Ch cats, Covies, Porchies and past cats.  Medical supplies will be shown and explained.  Some of our special FFRC books will be shared. We even have "cats" with injuries to show you--trap injuries, hit by car injuries, etc.  

Anytime a cat passes away here, we want to learn.  What can we do differently?  What other technique could we do?  What can we learn?  And that is where Fiver came to be.  But, in a nutshell, Fiver was a little kitten we took in with an awful injury, hundreds of fleas, dehydrated--he was in very poor condition. He was named Fiver. And because of him, his mama and siblings were saved. His full story will be read several times tomorrow.

Feliz Navidad Fund is for our special over-and -above medical needs. Her story too, in a nutshell, is --- she arrived frozen, revived and lived a short but wonderful life. This special fund is named after her for her bravery and determination. Her story too will be read in full tomorrow.

Come join us tomorrow.  I will start breakfast in the morning a bit earlier so we can get started earlier.  And thru out the day, our cat-board with the updated tallies on it will be shown.  Each donor will have her/his name on a "chain" that will be put together to show our strength for when we work together. 

We will keep track of any donations that are designated for Feliz Navidad until midnight Friday.  Because sleep will call in the evening, our grand total may not be until Saturday morning!  If you would like to get an early start, that is fine. Just use paypal or an email to let me know a check is coming!  You will be part of our chain of compassion!

We've heard from several of our adoptions!
Rosiland--she is exploring the house. She also loves her new family and they love her too!

Brrring--he's doing great. He follows his new mom all over and likes being close. He is perfect!

Avianna--She is one of the family and is really attached.  She went to the vet and all is good! Xena and Avianna are good friends.

Dublin--She is doing so good. She likes the vacuum too! I saw a picture of Dublin--looks so contented and peaceful

We also had 3 more adoptions since the last blog.
Gemma & Evans were adopted together on 11/11.  The family has already told us they are settling in well and said they are such babies and are loved very much already!

KaKenya was adopted 11/13.  She went to a home that has adopted from us before.  They have one of the Able kittens!  I think KaKenya will blossom in her new home. Such a beautiful tuxie.

Many thanks to you all for making our Flash Sale yesterday successful!   Big thanks to all of you who provided the items, those that purchased those items and to the Flashy Mods for overseeing the Flash Sale.
