Wow--this is definitely going to be a blog of major thanks. We had BOXES and ENVELOPES yesterday and I was blown away.......again......by your generosity. My heart is full of thanksgiving for you all.  You all are a very real part of this Rescue Center--even those of you who have never been here before. It amazes me how well many of you know these cats and kittens here--even from afar. And please don't ever think that I downsize the love you have for them--I can "feel" that love and compassion right there thru that cam! And the cats know it too!

We have a new kitten. His name is Trey. He arrived after being found outside all by himself. Trey is 11 1/2 weeks old with a birthday of 121/21/17.  He arrived yesterday. He's a beige boy with a big heart and whopping purr!  

Suka, Kota, KaeKaae, Bambi, Bloom and Brielle are all doing good. They have pulled Trey in as their friend. This group of kittens are in the middle Thumper's Room and sometimes also in the back with the last 2 Persian babies. They are rockin' and rollin' together! 

Vincent continues to do well. His hiney and other parts are healing quickly. He's still on medication for a little longer yet. 

We also took in a past FFRC cat--wait, once an FFRC cat, always an FFRC cat!  Eclair is her name and she was originaly here 8/12/2010. She was just 9 weeks old. Her birthday is 6/10/10.  She's been with the same dad all these years and was returned 12/20. Her dad is quite ill and can no longer care for her. She's white with grey on her head and a tiger tail. She's doing ok--I can tell she misses her home but she is trying really hard to fit back in. She's in the 2 Thumper's Rooms to cruise about. A very nice cat.

And here's another great video!  It's a special 2017 FFRC Adoptions Part 4, Production by FFRC Captures and Captions. Directed by Derecho   https://youtu.be/_gtHWQIVxrU. If you like, click the like/thumbs up button and help generate more $$ for FFRC. 

I would like to take this time to wish you all a Merry Christmas. You are part of our FFRCNation and we care about you. If you're not busy on Christmas, the cats and kittens welcome you (and so do we volunteers!)   Have a wonderful weekend.
