Well here it is, my very first blog post! Eek I’m not nervous, I’m not nervous. Ok, maybe a little. But luckily I have Steven, Magic and Egypt on my desk proof reading and pointing out errors, in between eating snackers of course. So very grateful for help! So many updates to give! So grab your coffee, blankie and snuggle in with a kitty for a big catch up.

First of all - the wonderful Mama Jacci. She’s just the bestest and has been so helpful in instructing me on meds and some ‘how do I do this’s’. She’s really enjoying her retirement and has taken the dogs to the beach ALOT, which they love. Everyone seems to be settling in very well. While Jacci is so very happy, she misses the kitties, volunteers and all of you very much. I'm just so happy for her, she deserves a retirement so very much.

I’ve had a lot of questions about my ‘day job’. Yes, I still have that! I’m working a ‘hybrid’ schedule right now which is at FFRC from about 6:30 till 8 or 9, then to my office till about noon, then back to FFRC till about 6-7ish. While it’s not the most ideal having such long days, I’ll work on it and super appreciate you all’s kindness and support! ❤️ And big huge thanks to my hubs Eric—he’s just beyond supportive and has been taking care of the home front.

New intakes: Gosh it's alot! 
Steven approx. 6 weeks old, doing wonderful and has found a great friend in Egypt.
Egypt, our broken leggy boy. Approx. 6 months old, had a FMO surgery and is doing AMAZING. Big thanks to our wonderful Dr Darcy and Dr P for saving this sweet boys legs. 
Hamilton the 2nd, approx. 9 months old. Had terrible ear mites, and an URI, Luckily meds helped a lot!! 
Ilse (mama) came in with a large wound (possibly mastitis) that is now completely healed! She did have a 'flare up" but with the help of great antibiotics is now doing great! Her babies are Aragorn, Hindi, Angus, Donut and Giorna. 
Debbie (mama) found at GM, and just a wonderful mama. Her babies are Pickles, Cherry, Freckles, Boop and Tootsie.
