Hey everyone! Time for a nice big blog update, so grab a kitty and snuggle in. We have so many catch- ups to do and thanks to give!
ADOPTIONS!
On August 15th we had FOUR adoptions!!! What a wonderful day. Missy, Crockett, Molly Girl and Ghosty all went to their individual homes and I have had reports from all of them that they are doing just AMAZING. This makes us so happy. While I hate to see them go, and I really do, there is such comfort in knowing that they went to great homes and will be spoiled like crazy!
On August 19th Leisel and Everly went to their very own home....TOGETHER!!! This family came all the way from WI to get these gems. I’ve gotten lots of reports and pictures, again they are just thriving. Leisel is still quiet, but definitely coming out of her shell. I love that.
On September 4th, Puzzone went to her new home with our volunteer, Mary Braid’s mom. They both couldn’t be happier. Puzzone (now Jasmine) has been sleeping on her new mom, watching out the big windows and even sleeping on her back, all sprawled out. Sooo comfy. I’ve so please with this match. Just a couple of ladies of leisure. LOL
NEW INTAKES!
We have a few new intakes, and boy oh boy are they CUTE!!
On August 16th, our former kitties Kubu and Desi were unfortunately returned due to allergies from the owner’s new fiancé. This is very sad but this is always what we agree to on every single adoption, and will always agree to in the future. So, I’m happy to have them back and will look forward to finding them a forever home again.
On August 25th, in comes this tiny little black and white kitten, Rocky Raccoon. He (and I say this as the sex is undetermined right now) is the cutest, most playful little thing. Bounce, bounce, bouncing around his pin. He currently in quarantine right now as he has ringworm. But, fear not! He’s being treated, so in a few weeks he should be right as rain!
On August 27th, Patcheye (DOB 5/23/22) came in with a friend, Mr. Whiskers (DOB 3/24/22). They we both found wondering around in the country in the middle of the road! Luckily, they got picked up by a very nice lady who brought them to us. Patcheye is an adorable black and white boy, and Mr. Whiskers is a gorgeous light gray and white medium long hair boy.
FENCE-A-THON!
This is coming along nicely although never as fast as you want. The Kitty fence is now in. But our ‘real’ fence hasn’t come yet. It should be here in a week or two. We’re currently working with various contractors to find the cheapest price we can for the install, hopefully we should have everything wrapped up for winter! Again, big thanks to Jimmy for putting this all together for us!
KITTY UPDATES!
Dr. Darcy’s visit went GREAT. I’m so pleased with all we’ve been able to accomplish with such a short time. Big big thanks to all the staff and volunteers who worked like mad to get the rescue so very clean! The cats are all look very well, we do have a few dentals coming up. Mostly outside kitties. These will include Walter, Snoopy, Dude the Barnie, Dollop and Frank. We’re looking forward to getting these done so that they can start feeling amazing. We didn’t have a great talk about Coralie. Coralie breathing is difficult for her. We did change of her meds, and while I don’t see a great improvement, it doesn’t appear to be worse. But as always, we go by what the kitty says. We will always do what is best for them, because they deserve it and have brought us so much joy. Sure love that girl so much.
We also had taken in a new boy, Dean. He was such a love and overall seemingly healthy. We sent him up for a neuter. All seemed well after but he did seem a little extra ‘punky’. He ended up having a heart failure and passed. Most likely this is from the anesthesia from his neuter that brought out an undetected heart murmur/issue. He was a very good boy and while we only had him for a short time, he was so very very loved.
KITTY CHRISTMAS!
This is coming up very very quickly!!! Stay tuned for an update on that this Saturday’s blog. Sooo very exciting!!! I’m pretty sure it’s the kitties favorite time!!!

Here’s a couple of other updates for you!! We removed that paddle pole in the center the kittens would play on. We were having so very many kittens falling off and hurting themselves. We’re working on a different version, just safer. Yay!!!
In other news, Lynnette is going on a much deserved vacation next week. So very excited for her. We will be closed to the public from September 12-16th. Let’s all wish her well!!
As always a big huge thanks to the volunteers, staff, mods, and admins who make this rescue run amazing and to all of you!!! We appreciate you all more than you know. In friendship ~ Megan and the Cats
