We've had another adoption!
Kenzel went to her new home. This family had come in several times to visit her. She was always a "melted kitten" in their arms! So happy for Kenzel.
Carnie Bear is doing so great. The new family says they love him and he is perfect. He settled right in and is sleeping with them and is happy!
Carolyn, who adopted Bertha 3 years ago is also doing great. Her name is now Sally.
Great news! Our Pampered Chef party went super! Melissa, who is the Pampered Chef consultant, sent a note. "I did a party for Angie L to get items for FFRC. I gave a white stone, tortilla warmer, a cookbook, mix and chop, silicone prep bowls. I also gave a check from a donation of the money from the show. I donated $100.00 plus you got about $800.00 hostess free stuff (This will be used in our next Catathon!). So glad we could help out. Looking forward to another show in the spring." Thanks, Melissa and Angie L and to all those that purchased items!
We took on a new kitten. His name is Basani, a Name a Cat name. A lady found him and brought him to FFRC. He is a possible hit by car, his back legs were terribly sore and wobbly. He is also being treated for a slight URI. It's like he has a slight neurological problem with his hips, legs and also for potty issues. He was given antibiotics, anti-inflammatories and soreness meds. Today............wonderful news! He could tell he had to potty and actually pottied in his litterbox......progress! Ohhhhh, we get so excited about good litterbox improvements! Basani is super sweet. He LOVES to be held and purrs constantly. He even kneads his little paws while he's sleeping! Basani is a grey kitten with a white diamond and white tummy. His birthday is 9/2/19 and he arrived 11/25. He weighs 2.08, a bit thin but he's enjoying his meals!
And we have more thanks to give!

Tomorrow morning we have an adoption! Not positive which kitten will go yet, but the family is awesome and will take excellent care of whichever one they pick!
Saturday late morning, our sweet Jewel Elizabeth will be going to her new home. She will have a quiet home. The type of home that will let her blossom! So happy for her.
The 3 new kittens, Trippadoo, Weezie and Sita are doing great. They are now in the Main Area and have joined the crazy kittens in their play! So fun to watch.
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving! For my family, we will be going to my sister Patti's house! She loves to cook which is so nice! I am thankful for the volunteers who will be here tomorrow, a holiday, to watch over the cats and kittens. On an FFRC level, I am so grateful for all of our volunteers, our mods, our admins, our chatters and lurkers, our internet friends--our entire FFRCNation. Never could there be a nicer, kinder, compassionate group of people. And last but not least..........I am so grateful for each and every kitten and cat that is here. It is a true honor to care for them. They truly are such wonderful felines! Have a very nice day tomorrow. Please know how grateful I am for each of you.
