We had another adoption yesterday! Desi was adopted and went into the same home that Kubu lives at. I have a feeling that they will have a lot of fun together. 

I've also heard from a couple other adoptions.
Abel who is now called Blackjack. From the new owner: "He's been so awesome this week. I know I made the right decision in adopting him. He has officially become my alarm clock at 5:30 by licking my nose to wake me up for work." 

Fabel, who is now called Taylor. From the new owner: "She's been amazing! Xues and Popcorn absolutely love her  and they play all the time. She's very happy. She loves biting noses at night! She's an angel. We all love her so much"  

Cooper, the new Porchie cat, is doing well also. He enjoys the Porchie Haven and the Sunporch. The other Porchies have accepted him very nicely.

Who is this Oliver Taylor Blackwell mentioned above? He's a sweet boy that was found on a country road nowhere near houses. Unfortunately, he had been hit by a car. His right front canine tooth is fractured. His left eye is badly injured. Also his rear left leg is badly fractured. He goes to the vets tomorrow morning for an x-ray. We shall see then what can be done for the leg. In the meantime, he's receiving soreness meds, ointments for his eye and antibiotics. And lots of food!  He is so so hungry. His birthday is 8/12/18. Oliver Taylor Blackwell is super friendly with a motor type purr!

We all know that soon we will be loaded up more with kittens. While we are spaying and neutering as many cats as we can, we still know there are babies being born.  Sometimes the work load can be very heavy. But.......this FFRC has the bestest thing of all........and that is super volunteers!  We have 45 volunteers plus, many in different capacities. Not only do they give their time, compassion and expertise in helping FFRC, we are all friends that enjoy working together. I am always so grateful to them. 

Always know that if you ever see an error in our listing of BOX items, please feel free to email me so I can correct things. During this Catathon time, things get a bit crazy! 

Warm temps are on their way! And that means windows will be opened soon! 

We have quite a few kittens on hold, but have to wait till they are ready:  Inga, Calvin, Lucette, Rita Marie, Monroe, Frank, Mable, Sable, Cornelio, Feather and Singita. Remember......things can always change. 

Tenzin is doing super good.  He's a friendly boy and is a very graceful 3 legged cat. He so loves to have his head rubbed. 

Remember, this Tuesday at 2:30 ish is our Mich and Vern Flash Sale!
