Sunday, April 4, 2021 Happy Easter

 Hello to all of our FFRCNation!  FFRC is made up of such awesome people.  I thank the volunteers, the mods, the admins, chatters, lurkers, supporters, prayer givers, donors, good thought givers, ALL of you!  YOU all make what we do easier and possible. Always know that this rescue center is full of gratitude.

We are back now a week from our vacation. I hit the ground running, as it is said!  Right back in the swing of things. Time to get vaccines caught up, calls made to potential adopters, medical supplies ordered, phone calls caught up, among many other things!  

Our family vacation was 100% wonderful. Such a treasure of memories. As always though, it's good to get back into the swing of things. I love this FFRC!

I'm asking for understanding. I've gotten way way behind on this blog. One of my purposes of this blog is to give thanks and list all the gifts, donations, supplies.  I hope you all will forgive me if I give a blanket thank you.  It's a bit overwhelming getting caught up. But.........my gratefulness is big. All of the financial help, the items sent to help us keep stocked, the kind cards, etc.---all of that is appreciated. You all are important to us.

This rescue center could not possibly be what it is without your help. If you haven't received a thank you from me, please let me know!  There's a few addresses that I did not have.  Thank you for your understanding.

We have all 6 of the LJ litters on hold!  They will be having their spays/neuters this Thursday.  And then........adoption time for all of them! Starting Friday, one by one over the next little bit of time, they will be going into their new homes! They are running amok in the Main Area.  They still go into Paddy's Place to eat but at night, they are now out and about! All are super sweet and ever so busy!

We also took in a new mama and her 5 kitties this week. Names are from the Name a Cat list.

Ms. M--Mama, grey torti  birthday 9/11/18

Joanne--torti with gold dot on forehead, female

Joan--torti with gold nose, female

Doreen Green--DSH, gold tiger, female

Abicat--ASH, gold, female

Freddit--ASH, gold male

So.......there you have it!  They are 6 weeks old, with a birthday of 2/17/21.  We will be getting mama spayed this Thursday. Sweet babies. After the LJ kittens have been adopted, we will bring up this Ms. M litter up front!

This Thursday is HumaneOhio spay/neuter day with a very full schedule.

Our last HumaneOhio was 3/18.  We sent up 40 cats--22 females and 18 males. We are already booked up into June. So many cats in need. We have had a few donations come in that is specific to help with this low cost spay/neuter program.  Outside cats are $35 and inside cats are $50.  If interested, we would be grateful. Many times, people are trying to help their neighborhood out by getting the strays in. These special donations help us help them.

This Tuesday, our dear sweet Maddie Mae Tru will be adopted! The perfect home has been found and Maddie showed her happiness.  She gladly welcomed her new mama and the little 3 year old girl. She climbed into their laps and rubbed all over them. She especially was smitten with the little girl and allowed her to brush her for at least 15 minutes!

Another awesome upcoming adoption is Weds. That would be Zandor. He sure likes his new mom and dad and was cuddly.  He is amazing and has become quite a friendly guy here in the Main Area. I do think he's a bit of a clown--so silly when he plays!

This Tuesday is another great Flash Sale.  It will be at 11:00.  Lots of awesome items. We will be concentrating on biggy/leggydews, awesome designed pillows made by Hatmaker and those super scrubbies by Joco. 

Spring is showing itself here. The cats love the sunshine as do us humans! Grass is green, buds are coming, spring birds are back--it's a wonderful season. I've been hearing two of my most favorite sounds--the morning birds singing and the tree frogs singing their songs along the river!

I saw Skandar this week for his nail trim! He is a recent adoption. He looks wonderful and is very loved. Also heard about Mirabeau who is now Smokey Jo. She was adopted in Jan. Her dad just loves her so much and is much company to him.

I'd like to wish everyone a happy, blessed Easter. Enjoy this special day.  Take good care!                                  VC
