We have an update on Fio. He is doing wonderful. His new mama says--"He runs around the house like he owns the place (because he does!). He and his brother play all day long. He's so super sweet and snuggles with us every chance he gets. And he does this adorable thing when he wants food or treats. He'll come out to the kitchen and sit down, wrap his tail around his front paws and just looks up at us patiently. Then when he hears the food it's nothing but little raspy meows! We love him so much!"
From one of the comments left for us on Google: "Cute kittens. Friendly employees, an informative visit. What's not to love?" We say a big thanks to you!
We've had another adoption! Muckie went to his new home. I feel he was loved the instant his new dad met him! He's such a great, awesome big boy. He will soon be spoiled----just what we love!

All Donations for Valentine's Day, from our Valentine Crowning and during this week will go towards our recent bill from our main medical supplier. We needed alot of restocking items and so the bill was rather high. Thanks for helping us with this!
Yesterday was our Valentine Crowning! It was so much fun. We hope you all enjoyed it! I so appreciate each and every single vote that was cast. This fun-raiser will also help with that medical bill for this month. We have a new Queen and King! However, we know that ALL of our Residents are royal cats!
Here's how the votes played out:
Second Runner Ups: Magic (38 votes) and Lucy (32 votes)
First Runner Ups: Ramsay (63 votes) and Marilyn (34 votes)
And now...........King Paw Paw (98 votes) and Queen Jessie (41 votes)
It was rather nice to have our two oldster Residents win!
Total votes that we received were 525 which came to $2,625.
And then we had some bump-ups that brought the total up even more---$3023!
ALL persons who voted for the Queen and/or King will receive a Sprocket picture of the couple and 2 special cat decals. We drew names for those that placed the Queen/King votes for a Digital Photo Frame, 2 8 x8 canvas pics of the King and Queen and also for 6 heart blankets.
All of people who cast votes had their names in a consolation drawing for 10 cat blankies and 3 towel sets.
Following the Crowning, a Valentine Story involving the FFRC cats was read. Story was written by our webcam friend Cindy G!
After the story was read, I was presented with the most wonderfulest gift. It was a memory book with stories from many of our FFRC friends. It truly was awesome......I was not aware this was going to happen. Brings much humbleness to me and much joy. The stories, the letters, the captions, the pictures......all just made me smile (and cry too). I thank you all for this wonderful gift. I will treasure it always. 💙💚💛
We took in 7 new kittens.
3 kittens came together--they are known as the F litter. They were found out in the middle of a field, snuggled down into the snow and mud. They are 9 months old with a birthday of 5/14/19. They are:
Foster--gold tiger, male
Freda--gray torti, female
Frasier--brown tiger, rear toes are white, male
4 kittens came together--they are known as the P litter. They were from a mama that had 11 kittens. Unfortunately, she went outside and was struck by a car. 7 kittens were placed in homes and FFRC took the remaining 4. All are sweet but with low weights. They are now plumping up and gaining a few ounces. They are 6 weeks old with a birthday of 12/31/19. They are:
Pinkerton--gold tiger, white, white feet, male. Arrived at 11 ounces
Pepe--black/white neck & tummy, male. Arrived at 1.02
Panthy--all black, with a few white sprigs of fur. Arrived at 15 ounces
Pueblo--gold tiger, male Arrived at 1.04.
You all take care. and enjoy this wonderful weekend. Please know that you all are truly appreciated. The cats send their purrs and gratitude for helping them too.
