Kristin was kind enough to start a Gofundme to help me with all my medical bills and costs associated with feeding, vetting and rescuing animals. We are still trying to figure out how to have a fundraiser this year. I wish I had a personal assistant to help me put that together, as it does take a small village to get things started. But in the meantime, I thank you Kristin for starting this. Feel free to click on the link below.
So to begin with. I am
feeding at least three pregnant cats that I know of. I am feeding at
least 7 kittens that I know of. I am feeding at three new locations
without shelters - just placing food down - that have an average from 3 to 8 to
7 cats that I can see. I am also seeing a cat with a huge chuck of flesh
torn out of its neck each morning. That’s a total of 18 extra cats each
morning. I have a total of ZERO spots to get them treated, fixed,
spayed. Every day morning, after I arrive back home, I just have to
forget. I record it here in the blog, and then I have to forget. In the
back of my mind I am planning, but until I can do something, I have to forget
and pray that they are all going to be OK.
Oh how they could be living the
cushy life like my cats, lounging around, sitting at their empty food bowl
knowing it will be filled if they keep staring at me, throwing up as they
walk past me, knowing I will clean it up.
They could be living this life if only we had enough people in Rochester
to open their homes and hearts and give these cats a room. My adoption rate is very high – I have only 3
cats I have not been able to adopt out, partially because of their own fear,
but I do get adopters. Some take a bit
longer than others – of course kittens go quick, but adult cats are wanted too,
thank God. I wish we had more fosters!
Yesterday, I received a picture from Kristin, who is fostering our
big fat pregnant Goldilocks (Goldie for short) who, by the way, is going to
make an EXTREMELY loving cat once she is adopted. Our little missy is getting HUGE. What do YOU think? J
This weekend I will have a total of six kittens on my porch! Three are pre-adopted (surgery is Tuesday) –
Freedom, Liberty and Justice – and three are ready for meet and greets! Astrid, Wilbur and Willie! The cutest kittens… They have made great strides the past few
weeks, now not running from me in fear if I approach them slowly, and now
totally playing. Can you imagine kittens
not playing? They didn’t know how at
first. And now they love the strings –
Willie jumps a foot in the air now to catch the string. Its quite fun. I do hope the kittens get along as they will
all be joined tonight. Thanks to Foster
Mom Melissa for fostering F, L and J.
She did a good job.

Foster Mom Sue still has Roxy and Foxy, Sara and Cairo, and the
four little ones, Lichi, Gummy Bear, Andrew and Thomas. All adorable.
Sara and Cairo are not spoken for, and neither is Andrew. All the others are awaiting their new homes
once they are spayed and neutered.
That’s all I have for today.
More tomorrow.
Have a great day!
