 Happy Caturday everyone! It's been so very beautiful here, the cats are just loving the open windows and fresh air. Us people have been loving it too. Cindy and Jimmy have been working outside getting all the winter gear away and summer furniture out. It's been lovely. The peacocks, ducks and chickens have also been enjoying. We have bigger water tubs out and they are quite enjoying splashing around. And the new ducks that came from the humane case in town? Well they are doing just ducky! Cindy has them trained to waddle back into their pins every night. She's the new office Duck Wangler! 

The kitties of FFRC are also doing just wonderful.  On the 27th, Cavendish also went to his new home and also doing amazing. On March 31st, Ninja and Chumley went to their new home and last I heard they were doing wonderful!

Also on 3-26, the Y kitties arrived. This is Yamina, Yama and Yellowstone. Boy they were quite a surprise! I came in on Sunday morning, and found a crate at the end of our driveway. I knew it wasn't ours. Once I parked, I got out and walked up to the crate and saw a little kitten. Head popping up. Oh dear, a new kitty. When I looked further, not only was it one kitty, it was three! Their date of birth is January 4, 2023. Yama is a small brown tiger, while Yamina and Yellowstone are brown tiger and while. They look very similar, except Yellowstone has a small brown splotch by his nose. They are all super sweet kitties. 

On 4-8, the box kitties arrived. There is four. All super sweet kitties. The first is Coral II. She is a beautiful long hair calico girl. The second is Carlton III. He is a stunning long haired black and silver kitty. The third is Amazon II. Another beautiful calico girl but she is short haired. And last but not least, we have Ellen. A pretty torti girl. Once they are available, I know they'll just go super soon. They are so very pretty and handsome. 

On 4-10, a former FFRC alum arrived back to us. His name is Tasco and he's the handsomest Burmese. His date of birth is August 25, 2009. While his owner loved him very very much, she was left in a health situation and unable to attend to him. We are happy to have him back and will ensure that he goes to the best of homes.

The last few weeks have been trying to say the least. We had lost 4 of Tigress' kittens and our sweet kitty Blackberry. Blackberry had FIP, such an awful horrible disease. Wheeler was also found to have it, but luckily we seemed to catch it early and have begun alternative treatment for him. We are hopeful. 

Tigress is doing well and her two remaining kittens, Magellan and Rumpelstiltskin are going great. I think we can safely say they seem to be over the virus issue that took the others sweeties. Magellan and Rumpel and eating like champs, and gaining weight like wildfire! So incredibly happy. 

Visitors, visitors, we have visitors! Our lovely chatter Vickie and her husband are here visiting until Monday, then Monday night Marco from Germany will be here! It's sure gonna be a fun time! The kitties will enjoy the extra attention for sure!!!

And last but not least we have big major thanks to all our wonderful financial donors and box senders!

Patcheye & Mr. Whiskers & Monty & Winter

"All the cats are doing great! Mr. Whiskers & Patch are definitely best buddies. They love to run, wrestle, and play together. They also talk to each other all the time. Maddie(Monty) and Emmy(Winter) are doing great as well. They both like to sleep cuddled up together in one of our cat beds. They are all doing great and super spoiled and loved. There is never a dull moment around here."

Kubu & Desi

"Kubu and Desi are doing great!  They love to play, and they talk alot.  They are very nosy, checking out everything!  One night during the first week I heard a crash.  I ran to see the bathroom shower curtain had been pulled down, rod and all.  I use to always pull the shower curtain closed, but not anymore.  Lol! I am grateful to have adopted them.  They are so sweet, fun and loving."

Debbie Cat and Cher 

Debbie and Cher ‘Nala’ are doing awesome. They are sweet, kind and so easy to take care of. Kids spoil them rotten and so do I but they seem happy and appear to love their new home. 

There's a few updates for right now, I will be working on adding some more in over time!

I do have some updates to share from the past two weeks. I'll start out with the painful one first. One of Tigress' babies, Baby #5, who I actually named Baby, passed away on Sunday. While he started out life so very strong, something happened as he grew and he stopped nursing. Our hearts are just broken. I keep telling myself that Heaven just missed him too much and needed him back home. I love you so very much, Baby, and can't wait to see you again. 

While Baby took a piece of my heart, new patches come in to help our patchworked heart. The first is Wheeler, an adorable smoky gray boy. He was found by our early morning cleaner, Kim, who brought him in. He's a lovely sweet boy, very quiet and just wants your love. His date of birth is 11/30/2022.

The next boy that came in is Mr. Darcy. Oh boy is he a love. This boy had lived with his family since he was a kitten. When he was about 13 years old, it got to be just a little too much for the family, so they gave him to friends to keep outside. This family had him for about a year, then gave him back to the original family to keep outside. He is now 14, a little thin. He's also missing all teeth, except for about 1. But boy oh boy, is he happy. He loves his comfy bed, especially with a heat pack under it. And Denise gave him a yellow banana today and he just LOVES it. We are so very glad he is with us. He is a brown tiger with white and his date of birth is 04/28/2008.

I think that should catch us up for right now, thank you so incredibly much for supporting our rescue and our kitties. We are just so grateful for each and everyone of you! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. In friendship ~ Megan and the Cats

Tuesday, March 7, 2023

 Hi guys! How are we all doing today? We've been a whirlwind of activity this week, so let's do a rundown of this past week's happenings. 

This past weekend the weekend of Feb 25th and 26th saw lots of visitors! First off, we had Franki Pablo visit with her two kitties Keana and Sudsy Sue. They escaped from an ice storm and came to visit. We were so happy to have them and some extra hands too! LOL. 

Then we had Lucy Sidney (Ramsay's second girlfriend---he's a ladies' man!) and her boyfriend, Sean   visit. This was their first visit, and it was just a joy to meet long time viewers and good friends. 

The week of the 27th had us training some new employees. The first was Alena, she's working to cover weekends and days off for Kim. We just love her already and think she's doing great. The next was Raven. She has been training with Denise. She will be working nights (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturdays). She will be working from 5-10pm to give us a late-night sweep and mop, scooping and pottying. Shes also doing wonderful! 

On Monday, the 27th, we had the adoption of Barnabas to a very wonderful home. He sure picked his family. I think he's going to get so much love and spoiling! 

On Tuesday, the 28th, we had box day! I love love box day, just about as much as the kitties! Thank you so much for all the wonderful things you send in for them, they are really grateful as am I!

On March the 2nd, Cosmo went to his new home---with Lynnetty! He's getting along very very well with the dogs, he's a little more nervous around the girls, but I'm sure they'll all come around.

The 2nd, we also saw the return of one of our previous kitties. His name is Caden. He was originally adopted 11/21/20 and has a date of birth of 8/9/20. He's the most beautiful brown/black tiger. He's very shy yet, but just the sweetest. 

To continue on the crazy day that was Thursday, our wonderful volunteer, Kathy, came in around 9pm, went to feed Tigress. In a panic she sent me a text saying Tigress was in active labor! I flew up here. She ended up giving birth to 6 beautiful, healthy babies. They are all doing wonderful, and she is just the bestest of mommies. I couldn't be prouder of them all. 

We also had two more visitors this weekend. The first was Ardis and her husband Bob, who answered our plea for baby food! They hand delivered it! How fun was that? It was so very nice to meet them and show them our rescue. Good, good people. 

We also have our very own Eaglewatcher Beth here and Shamballie! They will be with us for a week, so we're putting her to work! LOL. We so love when they visit.

I would give each and every one of you a hug if I could! In friendship and gratitude ~ Megan and the Cats

Let's do a catch up of this week! Lynnette and I have been busy playing catch up as we were gone last weekend. It's so nice to be back, I sure missed the kitties so very much. Luckily, they are all doing really great, so I'm so happy for that. On Tuesday we did weights and nails and also good news, everyone is doing just wonderful. We followed that up with BOX DAY!! Weee!

 Tuesday was also an exciting day as not only was it Alma's birthday, but my one-year anniversary as Director. Wow. In some ways it's flown by, in others it gone very slow. But I've loved every minute of it and do not regret it for a moment. Jacci has also been enjoying her retirement. I checked in with her and she was just at the beach. On top of loving the beach she's been enjoying the "sun, blue skies, peacefulness, sand, doggie park, great neighbors, shells, gardens and quietness. While I totally love it here, my heart will always have FFRC in it. I miss the resident cats, the volunteers, all the FFRC friends and that awesome rescue work. It's in me and I still love it all. We are doing good here. Have met wonderful neighbors. Worked in the gardens 1 1/2 hours yesterday. Just got back from getting a boatload of rocks for the gardens! You all take care. Sometime when we are able, we will visit. Big hugs and lots of love." I'm so happy they are doing great! It makes it all the better. 

 Yesterday (Saturday) we had the adoption of our very adorable little CATch. She had her spay on Thursday and her family was just so excited to get her. They came all the way from North Carolina just for her! And they are keeping her name, isn't that wonderful? I'm sure just miss her like crazy, but that means we can take in more kitties who need our help and that's what it's all about, even though it hurts the heart just a little when they go. 

I did recently get an update from Murph's family, and he is just THRIVING! He fit in immediately and they were kind enough to send lots of pictures of how much he's enjoying his new life. That just makes me so happy. 

 In this week ahead, we have the adoption of Barnabas on Monday at 10:00am, Cosmos dental and neuter on Tuesday, as well as weights and nails, and boxes. I have also started college classes for Veterinary Technician, I am LOVING this so very much and so grateful to be lucky enough to get to actually see what I'm learning every single day with the rescue work. How amazing! Well, I'll wrap this up for today, I sure hope you all have an amazing Sunday. Thank you so much for watching and just the never-ending support you give. We can never thank you enough. In forever friendship ~ Megan and the Cats
