Great news! Keep those feet walking, running and biking! We just received $95.59 from ResQwalk! Isn't that wonderful! That's just from using your ResQwalk app and adding up those miles! It's all like "free money". Many thanks for this.
Did you know that anything you purchase from Amazon can benefit FFRC, no matter where you send it to? Yep, it's true! If you go to our website at fofrescue.org and click on Amazon (yellow bar), FFRC will get a kick back! We just received a deposit of $165.28!! Big thanks!
Usually twice a day, we get the 8 kittens out onto the Main Floor. 5 of Kimmie's kittens and the 3 of Basani's. They are only a day apart. The 6 kittens of Minnie's are in the back Thumper's Room. All 14 of these kittens are actually eating pretty good from the plates! We've been alternating Basini and family and then Kimmie and family between Kitty Kampus Room and Kitty Kabana Room--just to mix up their scents. The 3 mamas are super protective and so that makes it not possible to have the mamas on the Main Area yet.
I know you all like to know the "scoop" of the happenings here at FFRC. Next week is going to be super busy. It's the beginning of letting people come in to start putting holds onto these 14 kittens. and Josette. No worries--we are being careful! All visits have staggered scheduled times. Visits are for 1 hour. Then we have 15 minutes to disinfect the room (back Thumper's Room) before the next visit. No public will be in the Main Area. We will be wearing masks. Of course, the kittens will be here for all of May as they will be spayed/neutered before leaving us.
Here's (so far) the schedule for next week. I'm still working on a couple more appointments.
Saturday, 5/2----- 9:30
Monday, 5/4-----9:15, 10:30, 11:45, 1:00, 2:00, 3:15
Tuesday, 5/5-----10:15, 11:30
Weds., 5/6-----9:45, 11:00, 1:45
Friday, 5/8-----10:15
The kittens are out right now--there's 4 here in my office area. And they are nuts! Running, climbing, wrestling--so full of energy!
As you know, HumaneOhio is back on, with many health restrictions. Our 5/14 and 5/18 dates are already full. We are already working on the June dates. It just makes me so happy that people are so interested in getting their cats and kittens spayed/neutered.
Azreal is still here in the Main Area with many many daily trips to Bella's Place--the outside dog run. She totally has OUTSIDE written on her brain. She was found outside and truly feels that drive to be there. If she's here inside, she will meow over and over and over again to be left back out to the dog run. She's very happy out there--loves watching the bird feeders, rolling around and just hanging out. She would be very difficult to adopt as an inside cat--her drive is tremendous to be outside. Azreal will probably be joining the Covies. I can already see her running and running and climbing on everything! Sometimes, it's just impossible to change their head set.
You all take good care. Stay healthy. Be kind to one another. Snoopybaby sent me something that I have on the counter for anyone to read. I'd like to share this:
As governors are trying to figure out how to ease back in to a new normal, please remember:
🛑 Some people don’t agree with the state opening.... that’s okay. Be kind.
🦠 Some are still scared of getting the virus and a second wave happening....that’s okay. Be kind.
We each have a different story. If you need to stay home, stay home. But be kind .
If you need to go out, just respect others when in public and be kind!
Don’t judge fellow humans because you’re not in their story. We all are in different mental states than we were months ago. So remember, be kind.
