The Dora Explorer's ate two fairly good meals already today from their plate. They certainly love people! Farrah has been a bit insecure lately--been wanting to ride around on shoulders. She does that every once in a while. And then purrs and purrs.
Coralie discovered Tonio's Den yesterday. She spent a good part of the day there yesterday. Each time I checked on her, she would be all stretched out. If I had a nickel for every time that THomas and Walter and Joline goes in and out of the door going into the Welcome Room Office, I'd be rich! They have a constant "need" to investigate whatever is on the other side of the door! We of course, oblige them.
We had BOXES last night. I am so grateful for your help.
Pat, our volunteer--an afghan--blues and white Cat on a Fence. It's beautiful!

Dave/wolfpatch is our visitor this week. Indy, before he left, showed Dave how to care for the Dora Explorers. Dave also sent COOKIES! We opened them last night--lots and lots of good cookies, chocolate, chocolate chips and almond crescent. Big Yum! Also 3 big bathmat rugs--very soft.
Jemima has been out cruising a bit each day. She's doing real well with mixing with the other cats. She's doing a good job being a mama to her sweeties.
Surgery is tomorrow. Dr. Darcy will be here early---about 7:30. We have 5 boys and 1 or 2 spays. So the schedule will be very light. The busy part of the morning will be the physicals that we need done. We have about 18 of them to do! Busy day tomorrow.
Short blog, busy day. Forgive me if I don't get emails all answered today. Have a day that will take me away from the Rescue Center today. Have an awesome day. YOU are appreciated.

Coralie is awesome. She's on the move! This morning she went from Kitty Kabana to the Main Area and then down the hallway! I love to see her explore. I especially love when you talk to Coralie, she will look directly at you and do that wonderful slow blink. That's her kitty-kiss! This morning she let Wrigley nap right beside her.
Yesterday was Joyful's birthday. She is now 12. She had extra treats and the promise that I wouldn't clean her eyes for that day. She really liked that gift! She really enjoys the back Thumper's Room. Yesterday we opened the windows in this room and she so enjoyed watching and hearing the birds chirping.
Randy is doing better. He's eating good. His poor bum caused a problem. His severe road rash on his bottom caused much soreness and swelling. He's such a good sport though. What a really nice cat.
We have a new Palm Tree and the cats are thrilled. Jimmy was very clever. After putting it together, he added an extra support sisel pole to support the shelf. These cats and their jumping on the shelf many many times a day is what eventually did the old tree in. Our cats here are hard on things! This extra support should give the tree a long life.
We had BOXES last night. I am so very grateful.

We love that Precious Litter! There is a contest going on right now where, should we come in first place, we will receive coupons for free Precious Litter! I'm all for that. Here is the link---facebook.com/PreciousCatLitters?v=app_448952861833126&rest=1
Check it out. I cannot find how long the contest runs for. Apparently you're able to vote for more than 1 picture a day. We have a Derecho picture, submitted by Beth and another picture with 2 cats in it, submitted by Jo Ann. Feel free to vote for both! Have fun with this and keep those kittypaws crossed that we win!
Here's a date for you that you might be interested in. Our next Day Sale is 4/26, Saturday at 11:00. Remember too, that all tshirts in the FFRC store is now $12, not $20.

We're trying to push items to help us be ready for the Catathon! While we're talking dates, remember the Catathon is June 22 and the Catstock is September 6. We'd love to have you come for these events.

The Dora's Explorers are doing good. Still beimg about 1/2 plate and 1/2 syringe feeders. They are starting to play more and more. Jemima is eating great now. Her babies' tummies are so so round! The 4 goldies are also doing great--getting to be very ornery!
Canton looks wonderful--her weight is good and she's such a happy girl. So is Treesa. I think they're both glad to be here. I just know they have a good home "out there", waiting for them.
Our goal is to move the Covies back to Cat's Cove this weekend. First though, we have a lot of work to do to get ready for this. The Cove still needs water blasted and then dried out. The sun is shining right now but we're expecting rain this afternoon. We're going to give it a try though to start on this huge job today. The Covies are chomping to get back to their spring/summer/fall home!
Putter is again being quite vocal. He spent some time with me this morning on the couch, being petted. Then he said ---"Tell the viewers this---Please Neuter and Spay....because all the other answers are stupid." Now, believe me, I told him that stupid wasn't a nice word. But, he said if they don't Spay or Neuter, then that's the word to use. I always listen to Putter.

Sunday, April 6
Life is great! As with humans, all of our personalities are so different. Same with cats! We know these cats here and want so much for each to find the right home for them. We know Canton needs a home where there is great love to give--she takes love and she gives love. Whisk doesn't like to be carried about but he loves to be petted. He'd also sleep on the bed with his family! Emma Jo would need someone that doesn't mind her being on the counter--she has a need to see what's going on all the time! Emily--she needs a petter, big time. She requires at least a thousand pets a day! They're all so different which is something to appreciate.
We had an adoption yesterday. Venus went with her new family. She is going to be one loved on cat! The little girl who Venus is specifically for, is quite a cat lover and Venus recognizes that. A good adoption!
We are in the process of changing our furniture around. The Cat's Cove is in need of furniture as much of the past furniture was in very bad condition. We've been fortunate to have a couple new Kuranda towers that will go in Cat's Cove. Here in the Rescue Center, we've been able to get a very good discount on 3 Activity Center Towers. They're very nice and they're very easy to keep clean. The furniture that was removed from the Rescue Center will go to Cat's Cove! A good thing as it will give the Covies some new furniture for them. We are looking to move the Covies soon. We need some warmer temperatures. We'll water blast it, then dry it out for a day and get it all ready! It's always exciting to move the Covies. We love those Covies!
We had BOXES on Friday evening. Super big thanks to you!

Mary S (Dance Studio Owner)--can cat food

Anonymous Friend--3-3pk lysol wipes, bag of Royal Canin kitten dry, 14 bags of cat snackers, 4-12 cup Tim Hortons K-cups
Whitney & Jenni--from Cincinnati--disinfectant wipes, can food, cat snackers, soap--there were actually many items, but their gifts were put away before I could write them all down. But they really helped us refill our shelves. They LOVE Derecho and so enjoyed all the cats and kittens.
We enjoyed all of our Saturday visitors so much! And so did the cats! We try very hard to keep track of who brought what so proper thanks can be given. I'm so sorry if we've made any errors. Please don't hesitate to email me and let me know!
Coralie is here beside me giving herself a good grooming! Alma is out and about--she is so so determined to do things HER way! Love it. Derecho can now easily get up on the low shelf to watch the birds at close range. Navi has made friends with all the cats--what a sweet girl she is. Many times during the day we leave the door open to Dodger's Pen so Jemima can go in and out. If you clump her babies together now, they about equal the size of their mama!
Yes, we are aware that Walter has been doing alot of circling lately. It's nothing to worry about. It's part of his how his brain is wired. Right now we're just observing. We're also know that Magenta has been falling more lately. Oh my garsh, we so love this oldster. We always pick her up, give her lots of hugs and let her be herself. We try to protect her but it's impossible to 100% of the time. She's a wonderful cat.
They did it! The best breakfast ever! The Dora Explorer's ate their breakfast by themselves! They will no doubt still need some syringe feeding the next couple days, but we're almost there for self-feeding! Many many thanks to both Kathy and Joni. Other than the breakfast that I feed them, they have taken total food care of these 5 babies and have done a marvelous job. When they walk in the room, all 5 kittens cry for them--they recognize them! Wonderful kitties and we're so proud of them! They did it!
Putter would like you all to know that he is feeling better. His appetite has picked up too. He and I are grateful for your concern. Putter keeps asking for me to post something for him. I tried to tell him maybe he needed to reword his thoughts a little, but he's insistent, so here goes: Putter says, "Don't be a sissy. There are plenty of rude, crude, neutered dudes! Join the rank of being neutered!". So.....if you know any intact boys out there, get them neutered!
We had an adoption yesterday. Venus went with her new family. She is going to be one loved on cat! The little girl who Venus is specifically for, is quite a cat lover and Venus recognizes that. A good adoption!

We had lots of visitors yesterday which we always thoroughly enjoy! They also brought supplies for us!
Amber & family--cookies, catnip bubbles, can food, cans of chicken, powdered KMR, laundry soap, kitty litter, dry kitten food, huggies kitty wipes.
Mary S (Dance Studio Owner)--can cat food
Connie K--RC kitten dry food, Wellness kitten dry, litter, can cat food, trash bags, hand lotion, TP, windex, lysol wipes and a donation
Anonymous Friend--3-3pk lysol wipes, bag of Royal Canin kitten dry, 14 bags of cat snackers, 4-12 cup Tim Hortons K-cups
Whitney & Jenni--from Cincinnati--disinfectant wipes, can food, cat snackers, soap--there were actually many items, but their gifts were put away before I could write them all down. But they really helped us refill our shelves. They LOVE Derecho and so enjoyed all the cats and kittens.
We enjoyed all of our Saturday visitors so much! And so did the cats! We try very hard to keep track of who brought what so proper thanks can be given. I'm so sorry if we've made any errors. Please don't hesitate to email me and let me know!
Coralie is here beside me giving herself a good grooming! Alma is out and about--she is so so determined to do things HER way! Love it. Derecho can now easily get up on the low shelf to watch the birds at close range. Navi has made friends with all the cats--what a sweet girl she is. Many times during the day we leave the door open to Dodger's Pen so Jemima can go in and out. If you clump her babies together now, they about equal the size of their mama!
Yes, we are aware that Walter has been doing alot of circling lately. It's nothing to worry about. It's part of his how his brain is wired. Right now we're just observing. We're also know that Magenta has been falling more lately. Oh my garsh, we so love this oldster. We always pick her up, give her lots of hugs and let her be herself. We try to protect her but it's impossible to 100% of the time. She's a wonderful cat.
They did it! The best breakfast ever! The Dora Explorer's ate their breakfast by themselves! They will no doubt still need some syringe feeding the next couple days, but we're almost there for self-feeding! Many many thanks to both Kathy and Joni. Other than the breakfast that I feed them, they have taken total food care of these 5 babies and have done a marvelous job. When they walk in the room, all 5 kittens cry for them--they recognize them! Wonderful kitties and we're so proud of them! They did it!
Putter would like you all to know that he is feeling better. His appetite has picked up too. He and I are grateful for your concern. Putter keeps asking for me to post something for him. I tried to tell him maybe he needed to reword his thoughts a little, but he's insistent, so here goes: Putter says, "Don't be a sissy. There are plenty of rude, crude, neutered dudes! Join the rank of being neutered!". So.....if you know any intact boys out there, get them neutered!

Friday April 4
It worked! I'm still beaming! Our electric went down last night (right in the middle of BOXES) for about 10-15 minutes. It had just went down for about 10 seconds and va-roooom! The Generator (Jenna Radar) kicked in, lights came on, furnace continued on, water still ran, Kitty Kastle lit up--just perfect! It was so wonderful to hear that machine noise and everything working! When the electric came back, the Generator simply turned off and all continued on. Thank you again, my friends, for making this possible!
Happy Birthday to Merri! She is now 7 years old. Merri came from Long Island along with Jersey. They both arrived 7/16/13.

Fondant had her surgery spay yesterday. She was a bit low-gear last night. She had an unusual "happening". Only one uterine horn could be found--should be two. After exploring her entire abdomen, the vet assured me that she indeed only had one. So, instead of a tiny incision, hers is a bit bigger for the exploratory. She's had soreness meds last night and this morning and doing much better now. I just checked on her and she was eating her breakfast!
The Jemima babies are getting bigger by the day. They really are so sweet. I will always appreciate the hard work that mama cats do for their babies. Dora's Explorer kittens are doing good. Kathy/JustMe and Joni (our guests) are doing much of their feedings, which I appreciate. All 5 of these babies seem to be doing good too, even Dexter! Francis is definitely the investigator/wanderer of the litter!
I saw both Alma and Coralie get into the litterboxes all by themselves yesterday! It's a wonderful thing. Putter is hanging in there--very much is a quieter boy right now and is sleeping alot on the couch. He loves to be held and petted. Jersey, August and Jackson are getting so much braver and coming out more to be talked to. Jersey liked his tummy rubbed last night! Joey too is putting his brave shirt on and is enjoying the attention. It's wonderful what time and attention can do!
The Covies will be out and about today--hope they stay out of the lake-puddles. There's so much water laying around. The Barnies have been entertained by a new goat. She's an Alpine goat and her name is Pickles. Her and Butter have become friends.
Putter asked me to send this thought to you (you know how he loves you all)--LIVE every moment, LAUGH every day, LOVE beyond words. Oh, he also said, "The wise sterilize". Putter has spoken.

Thursday, April 3
Yesterday was so nice, today so very rainy and cold. It's the way of Spring. The cats have sure been enjoying watching the bird feeders!
It's the beginning--one of the Dora kittens (Byron) slurped a little food from a plate! The good news too is that they are all starting to use the litterbox more and more--I always find that amazing. No mama to show them, yet they know to potty in the box! Jemima's kittens are all seeing more of the world--their eyes are popping open more each day!
Fondant is on her way to the vet's office right now. A volunteer is taking her and another volunteer will pick her up this afternoon. She will be spayed. Because of her back to back heat cycles, it was decided--let's just get her done now instead of waiting for the 12th.
We had BOXES last night! Many, many thanks! We are already getting items in for the Catathon--a big thanks for that too--this is what makes the Catathon successful!
Dewitty--case of KMR for the babies
Mayumi from Japan--case of the extra cute, extra soft tissues
Amanda--6 cans of KMR
Rebecca & Willow--for the Catathon--lots and lots of cool stuff for a kids basket--craft items, sock owl and bean bag animals kits, kids water bottles, etc. Will be a fun basket!
Betty W from Virginia--donation for the Dora's Explorers, card, Easter candy, framed picture of Rainbow Bridge artwork by Bill Bell which is a wonderful picture!
Cathouze and Furkitty and their cats and 1 dog from Defiance--pie for Jacci, laundry soap, baby food, fancy feast, chicken and rice Purina One, padded cube for Dora's Explorers
Jan from Hawaii--for Dora's Explorers--Pet Stages mini nesting mat
mkmouse--for the Catathon--lots of Disney basket items--puzzle, tote bag, woven throw, oven itt/pot holder, key tag--will be another awesome basket and a kitty mug "Marie" from Aristocats for Jacci
Dave M from CA--a wonderful 5 level Kuranda Tower
Brian B from NY--donation to be used where needed from PayPal
Kelley F from TX--donation to FFRC
Anonymous Friend--3 dozen jars of baby food
We had visitors on Saturday that were Mike/sophieandlucysdad's family! They brought goodies with them. We had Christy, Judy, 2 niece's who brought cat toys, sponges, PT, 13 gallon trash bags, vinegar, bleach, snackers. We also had a donation from his mom Pat L.
Our visitors/guests here are Kathy K (JustMe) and Joni both from Iowa. They brought a whole car load of supplies, some of which were Keurig coffe, Clorox wipes, vinegar, bleach, Fancy Feast, paper plates, baby food, Odoban, tuna, sardines, doggie snackers, volunteer snackers, farm critter snackers
They're back! They're back! Jenna and Radar, our two giant black/white cats that sit in the front yard are back. They had a major paint overhaul this winter. They look the same, except their noses are now a pink heart! My sister Judy and her husband Dave did the work on them. So very nice to have them back!
There's something wonderful going on in Van Wert Ohio. They are having The Neuter Scooter do a Mobile Cat Spay and Neuter Clinic. It's April 12, Saturday. The cost is $40 for tame cats and $10 for feral cats. Call www.neuterscooter.com to make an appointment. This is a good thing, folks. Take advantage of this great opportunity!
Because people have been asking the topics of the Catathon's Baskets, here are some ideas! If you'd like to send anything in to add to a specific Basket, that would be wonderful! These are just suggestions--feel free to come up with your own ideas! Bird, Picnic, Garden, Kids Summer Fun, Kids Winter Fun, Baby, Exercise, Healthy Living, Men's Sports, Relaxation, Coffee/Tea, Family Game Night, Cat, Dog, Inspirational, Car Stuff, the list could go on and on! The Big Ticket Items are individual things that would be "on it's own" for auction! Fun, fun! The Catathon is June 22.
Dodger now has his medicine and I'm so happy about that. He has Day One done and has 13 more to go! He took it like a good boy yesterday!

When you let your pet have litters guess who pays?
Yes, the cats and dogs who every day, lose their lives simply for lack of homes.

Tuesday, April 1
We have the sweetest, most cutest, most cuddliest cats and kittens ever.....and that's no April Fool's!
Dexter ate good last night and this morning! The Dora's Explorer's are all doing great! It's amazing the volume that can come from these tiny little kittens. Each feeding, these 5 babies get to be down ont he floor for a quick spin-around, then back to bed to their heater.
Jemima and her 5 kittens are also doing good. A couple of the babies now have wide open eyes now--the window to the world! Coralie was sitting on the window shelf in the Kitty Kabana Room this morning watching the birds--this was a thrill for her and for me! Seymour has been traveling today--he's here, there and everywhere, playing and grooming and looking out the windows.
13, 14, 15---we're counting! This is how many times Thomas has gone thru the door from the Main Area to the Welcome Room Office. If that door is opened and he's close by, he does his running/gallop/hop thing he does! Then there's Walter--he's up to 9 today so far, but he does his circle walk thru the door and is so proud of himself. They both have us trained!
We had BOXES last night! We are so thankful for your friendship and these gifts!
Terri/Maddysnanna and Steve/papasteve--for Coralie--a donation to commission CatHouze to make "Coralie's Ride", a special sling with support for her bottom!

Eleven. Yes, there are 11 cats now on the window ledges in the Kitty Kabana Room. The windows are open--it's glorious fresh spring air and the birds are teasing the cats while at all the bird feeders! We have doors open and the furnace is off!
