Weds., February 19, 2020

Another surgery day for spays/neuters happened this past Monday! We sent 41 cats to HumaneOhio--26 females and 15 males.  Many thanks to Lynnette, Gem and Becky M for helping us with this event!  This brings our 2020 total so far to 182 cats--105 females and 77 males. 

Our next spay/neuter day is Saturday, Feb. 29, here at FFRC.  It's a male neuter day. We are trying to spay/neuter as many as we can..............spring is coming and now is the time to make a big difference, before it gets into warm weather and longer daylight hours. We have a few male slots left--if interested, call our office at 419-393-2400 for an appointment.

HumaneOhio's main goal is to spay and neuter, at a low-cost. They do cats and dogs.  If you would like to schedule your own appointment with them, please call their office at 419-266-5607.  They are in Toledo, Oh. 

We have thanks to give:
Deborah S--donation to FFRC
Marianne D--donation to FFRC

This Petition for a "Hotline" that will save 1,000's more Cats and Dogs every month

Image may contain: possible text that says 'Support This Petition Contest Help Your Rescue Win $10,000 in Pet Food!'
 What is SaveARescue?  SaveARescue is an organization dedicated to reduction of euthanasia of shelter dogs & cats and the puppy mill industry that ‘fuel’ and supply retail pet stores with puppies, teaching staff to say these puppies come from “reputable breeders” [aka:  puppy mills]. SaveARescue promotes adoption of rescue animals and supporting all the Rescue organizations.
What is the petition about?  
Every year, millions of unwanted Dogs and Cats slip through the cracks. These are the Dogs and Cats who are
  • Dumped throughout rural and urban America, unable to fend for themselves;
  • Abandoned and left to die slowly and alone in our deserts & swamps;
  • Locked away, alone and starving, in empty buildings and deserted homes;
  • Chained and left alone 24/7 to endure the elements without shelter, food or water;
  • Hit by vehicles on our highways and roads and left, still alive, alone and suffering.
 This petition is in support of a 911-like hotline for Cats and Dogs so people in every community can help pets in life-threatening situations. Recipient of this petition will be the U.S. Congress 
SaveARescue has reached out to quality makers of cat and dog food for help in promoting this petition.  $100K in quality Pet Food has been donated. ($10,000 Pet Food GiveAway to 10 Rescues each)
Every Shelter and Rescue -- no matter how big or how small -- has a chance to win. 
  •  6 Rescues collecting the most signatures will each win $10,000 in Quality Pet Food.
  • 4 Rescues will win in a “Wild Card Random Draw” for their well-meaning attempts.

Everyone wins, but most important the voiceless, helpless Dogs & Cats out there right now with no chance of surviving on their own.

I've heard back from Muckie's new dad.  He sure does love Muckie. And he's going to keep his name.  I've seen pictures and he sure is comfortable in his new home!

We've had 3 more adoptions!
Chardonnay and Cady went to their new homes.....together! They have a new mama who has lots of love to give these two girls. So happy for all of them!

Penny Lane was adopted yesterday! She went with our FFRC friend, Painteddaisy/June. The plane trip went smoothly.  It sounds like she was already investigating the house last night and settling in!

The F litter: Foster and Frazier are doing great. They are up in the Main Area.  Foster is extra sweet and loves to be petted. Frazier is coming along.  Freida is going with a friend of mine to her small apartment where she will be fostered.  Freida needs lots of attention--it seems like she's had a severe "scare" in her young life. There will will receive 24/7 TLC and sole attention of our friend.  This is a good thing for Freida.

The P litter--oh my, what can we say but they sure are sweet!  Ornery, growing and very active!  They came up to the main area yesterday, in the big playpen. They loved that and it starts to give them a knowledge that there's more fun things to come!  That little Pinkerton is extra fun--he gets into everything and seems to think he should be in PawMart.  All 4 are so friendly.

Queen Jessie and King Paw Paw are doing great. They are exerting their royalty over the others--Jessie now wants fed 8 times a day instead of 7!  And Paw Paw is showing the P litter how to be extra cute! He loves them.
