Busy weekend! Saturday was our FFRC surgery day. Many thanks to Dr. Darcy, Amber, Sue, Lynnette and Becky for their help. We could not do this without a team effort! We did 8 neuters and 10 spays. Thanks too to Joyce D for the pizza lunch and to MLS who provided drinks for the day!
Those that were neutered: Paulie, Eamon, Davis, Zuccari, Comanche, Chewy, Coffee and 1 public kitten.
The spays were: Clive, Prada, Eileen, Daely, DIs, Dat, Joy Joy, Kaylee, Sparrow and Zasha.
Zasha will need a dental cleaning and so we will get her scheduled.
Sevaun had a physical--our girl is getting up in age--all good except some atrophy in rear legs
Sparrow--right knee is a bit stronger, left knee is very week. She has major rear leg atrophy going on. The worry is the pain level she experiences--that is uppermost in considering what we will do. Right now, it's all a waiting game and see how much she can heal.
And then today........we had HumaneOhio spay/neuter day! We sent 45 kittens and cats on the special spay/neuter truck! This broke down to 31 females and 14 males.
Our total now for 2020 is 1032--619 spays and 413 neuters. Our total of 2019 at this same time of year was 1061. COnsidering that HumaneOhio was closed for a couple months, we are doing very well in our numbers. We have probably 3 surgery days left for 2020. And then, we start all over for 2021!
Today is also dental day for two of our cats. Covie Jersey and Cliff who is a Porchie. More full reports on them when they return back home but I did get word that Jersey is done and had 4 major teeth and then 6 incisors pulled.
Tomorrow, Tuesday is a Flash Sale Day! This one starts at 11:00 and it's ALL Warped items! We are privileged to have such beautiful items from her and they are all about Christmas!
We've had 4 more adoptions!
Anda & Nother were adopted on 11/14. Two sweet girls, sisters! These kittens are now the only cats in the home and are so loved!
Zucarri was adopted on 11/15. He went into a home where a little 6 year old girl loved this kitten even before they went out the door!
Chewy was adopted 11/15. Chewy is a tad shy and needed a special home. And he found it--a lady who has lots of time daily to spend with him. She's showing him lots of love and patience.
We have more kittens on hold! Daely & Davis (together), Eileen & Eamon (together), Dis & Dat (together), Paulie, Jersey, Coffee, Kafuzzle and Kaylee all have wonderful homes waiting for them!
We took on 4 more cats.
Three came from a very rural cemetery--they were so scared they simply flattened down into the ground. All 3 had crevices in the ground where they had been laying. A friend of FFRC found them and then called another friend to transport to FFRC. At first, they were so cold, scared and bewildered. I feel they were loved by someone, somewhere in their lives. Once they were warmed up, bathed, fed and took long naps, they felt much better. Super sweet--all 3 of them and very beautiful. They are:
Mirabeau--DSH, female grey, tipped ear (already spayed), is a regal girl.
Eloise--DLH, female tiger/white, long tufts in her ear, so friendly
Alaina--DSH, female white/grey, loves to be talked to and fussed over.
The 4th is a kitten--his name is Stuffins. He is 4 weeks old and was dropped off at a lady's house who brought him to FFRC. I think Stuffins and Nugget will be good friends! Stuffins is grey and white, DSH. He is very sweet. He's been tested, bubbled bathed and his tummy is full. All this was followed by a nice long nap.
Remember Owens? I've just heard from his family. He is now 6 months old. He enjoys the geese as they fly by and the little birds as they play in the bushes. His mom loves this needy boy!
