Today at noon is a quickie Flash Sale--all about Christmas items! Come join us on the cam.
We also have Trivia today! That begins at 4:00 and guaranteed to be lots of fun! As a special Christmas fun day, there will be another Trivia on Dec. 12th, Thursday also at 4:00. Enjoy!
Yesterday was our HumaneOhio surgery day! I love these days. We sent up 33 cats. This amounted to 21 females and 12 males, including 3 of FFRC's. This brings our total to 1135 cats and 3 dogs--1138. My goal for 2019 is 1,200. It's going to be very close. Our next and last surgery day for 2019 is December 21, a Saturday. It's an all male neuter cat day. We are almost full--hoping to take reservations for 58 boy cats. Plus we have 2 FFRC spays to do. IF 100% of the cats show up, that gives us 1198. We shall see how it turns out.
We have thanks to give----
\Charlotte T--donation to FFRC
Kelly I--donation to FFRC
Deb F--donation to FFRC
Steph, Trevor--donation in honor of Angela who cares for their cats when on holiday and for her kindness
We have new kittens!
Giggles and Chuckles--arrived 12/6. Mary Braid, a vol, found them in her yard at nighttime. They are 12 weeks old with a birthday of 9/15/19. Both are a bit shy but coming along.
Giggles--white/muted calico, female
Chuckles--grey tiger/white, male
Ragsy--arrived 12/8. Another friend of FFRC found this one also in her yard, by himself. He's a Domestic Long Hair (DLH), more white than black with a black tail. Ears are both black/white. Super friendly and playful. He is 6 months old with a birthday of 6/12/19.
Teddy Bear and Thamba--arrived 12/9. They were born to a mama who we spayed yesterday. These two babies are 5 1/2 weeks old and needed to "move on" to FFRC a bit early. They are both eating very well. Both also have long fur. Their birthday is 11/2/19.
Teddy Bear--brown tiger, male
Thamba--(pronounced Tom Ba), black/white with a white face. His name means rock or boulder, male
All above names are from the Name a Cat List.
Today is also the day that our friend, Conii G's 3 cats will arrive from Florida. As was mentioned, Conii past away a week ago today. The family would like her cats to come to FFRC. Their names are Elliott, Alyssandrah and Gyovannah. They are being transported by a lady named Kim of Animal Transport.
We would like to move Cashew and Ragsy up to the Main Area and have Giggles and Chuckles in a double condo in the back Thumper's Room. Then move Teddy Bear and Thamba into the other double condo in the back. That way, Conii's 3 cats can have the floor. I'm sure they will take a few days to acclimate here--they've had many changes in the past week.
Did you know that every interaction, be it how small, provides each of us an opportunity to have a positive impact on them and on your life? It's really a neat thing--do something good for someone else and that feeling of goodness bounces back to you! An act of kindness is a spontaneous gesture of goodwill towards a person, an animal or even nature! It really can turn into a gratifying and fun thing to do! And I am quite sure, each of the FFRC cats do this everyday. Just today, I saw Derecho share his plate with Desmond!
