I know the Coronavirus has hit everywhere so hard--healthwise and financially wise.  There was hope that FFRC 
would be able to obtain 2 different grants.  But....on the second day of us starting the paperwork, the resources 
were dried up---no money left. That means this Fun-Raiser is super doubly appreciated!

We thank everyone who bought tickets, who supplied the items, the mods and admins for putting the word and 
video out to everyone, to Marcia for doing all the tickets and to Lynnette for doing all the mailings! It truly takes a 
village of our FFRCNation friends to help us.  I am grateful. 

And then, we have even more thanks!

Ecee Rose finally was able to go to her new home! Hooray---her new mama had been waiting 
for her to be spayed.  Her new mama said that she is adjusting very well. Her new name is
 Zina Moon!

Updates on the cats.  Freedom is doing awesome. We are slowly working his dead nits out of 
his fur. He loves to play and if no one is around to  play with him, he is great at entertaining
himself!  CDot and Boom Boom are now in the Main Area full time. 
They are both doing very well and have the bellies to prove it! Mary Sharon is also growing. 
She has the cutest hair styles--like it's been fizzed up!  So cute. And what a love she is.  
Cassiopeia is amazingly wonderful. One of the sweetest kittens ever.  

Arch and Otis are still on hold together. Won't be long until they will be abl to leave. 

Monday is our HumaneOhio day.  We are hoping to send up Zatria and her three kittens--
Yahtzee, Simpson and Ziva.

Trill is quite comfortable now.  What a gorgeous big boy he is.  He is learning that the 
awkwardness of the CH cats is ok--it's nothing that will hurt him.  He really is so very friendly. 

Monday we also have our Advisory Board meeting.  A busy week shaping up already.  
You all take good care--stay healthy.
