Here's another fun giggle! Please go to: https://youtu.be/9YBbL8vXxFo     This one is Scene #14.  Production by FFRC Captures and Captions, Directed by Derecho.  Helping Derecho is JustMe & SonJa.  Please like the video on utube if you enjoyed it. I know Derecho had a blast doing this one! 

We've had another adoption!  Odetta went to her new home! She went as an emotion support cat for a special lady. I do think Odetta will fit this need just fine. And it's ok with her new mama if she get on the counter!

We've also heard from our other adoption kitties:
David Morgan and Horace.  David Morgan is now called Trip and Horace is called Luca.  Both are doing very well and their family is so happy they adopted both of them. They are super cuddly and love to play!

Claude & Laverne.  Both have adjusted really well and are quite spoiled. They are now called Butch & Pearl!  Pearl has learned to play "tag" with her dad. 

Many of you may already know we lost a dear friend.  Zoolove/Pam Taylor passed away on Weds.  She lived in Coshocton, Ohio. She so loved all the cats here at the Rescue Center and was a wonderful supporter. Pam visited FFRC last year at Catstock time. I was so happy to have meant her in person.  She will be very missed by FFRC.  Here is her obituary:

I do need to let you know--we lost one of our Covies.  We've been having trouble with her as her health has deteriorated a bit. LeLe passed away quietly and peacefully. She was 13 years old but had seemed "old" for quite some time.  She arrived here when she was just 1 year old. LeLe came to us from a horse track where it was feared she would be hurt by the horses.  She was a wonderful sweet cat. We will miss her in the Cove.

We had BOXES today too!  Many, many thanks!
Nona--10 cases of baby food!
Justme for Vernie--2 boxes of Delectable Squeeze Ups
Anonymous Friend--2 cases of baby food!
Judy and Phil--big box of 6" plates, 3 pk. Clorox wipes, 8 rolls PT, 2 tubs Party Mix, case appetizers, 30 jars baby food, Twizzlers for vols.
Susan C--donation to FFRC

Tomorrow Steve and I and our family will be leaving for our vacation!  Hurricane Maria has left that area and today I was told by the rep, that the weather is beautiful! We will be back on 10/8.  Please, during that time, if possible, hold the emails, all messages and boxes! That'll help.  The volunteers and mods know how to get a hold of me if needed. 

The Persian babies are doing very well.  All are nice and plump!  Julianne and Nsuku, the mamas are also doing very well and keeping their weight on.  Shalimar is one big kitten. He also has his eyes open! The others will follow soon in opening their eyes. They are also starting to wander a bit in their condos, which is fine. Today we have added plexiglass to the front of all 4 condos for their safety. No crawly baby walking thru the front! They are safe. When mamas are down on the floor now, we have to shut their condo pen door so no one falls out that way either.  Just think.....in 4 weeks or so, we'll have babies waddling around! 

Take care and have a great upcoming weekend. I'll see you all again on the 8th! I'd just like to say an extra big thanks to you all.  Life is unpredictable. You all are appreciated by me. Just want you to know that. Big hugs and thanks for your friendship and your support of this Rescue Center.
