Saturday, March 10

The last day to vote for the Readers' Choice Award is 3/21. Please remember to vote for FFRC at: http://cats.about.com/b/2012/02/21/rca-vote-for-best-non-profit-cats-organization.htme

Tonight at BOX time (6:30 est), whether we have boxes or not, we will do the drawing for the people who will receive a picture of a resident cat with their very own pawograph on it! We use tempera paint, it's safe and we wash it off immediately. We also have a few pictures of Badu to use for the drawing, even though she's not a resident cat and we did not ask her to pawograph it! Badu's picture is from an etching that Dorothy Y in CA did. She used a picture that Nikkaross took. Thanks to Jenni C who took some of the other pictures and had them developed. We originally were going to draw out 5 names, but we've decided to do 43 of them! Fun.

Dapa and MiMi are doing good. They like to cruise and both love to be petted. Dapa is a big baby and loves his tummy rubbed while MiMi loves her head rubbed. Rory still loves his tummy rubbed--will lay flat on his back to have his tummy ruffled up.

Hopefully, the new storage room will be started next week. The company has had a hospitalization of the owner of the company, so they're a tad behind. We have a name for the new apartment--it's Kitty Kastle. The first coat of paint went on yesterday, thanks to volunteer Angie L--it's a beautiful and calming color.

We have another birthday today. Raza is 2 today. She arrived here on 3/15/11 and gave birth on 3/29/11. Her kitties were: Telo, Ketzie, Manon, Waki, Gibbs and Scribble.

We had BOXES last night! When I was little, I loved the Helen Keller book. She at one time said, "Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much." This also says alot about this rescue center.
