Don't ask is the standard answer

Yes, we don't tell people just how many cats we have---- suffice it to say LOTS But the number and the cats are always changing with adoptions.

The surgeries are going well. I called first thing this morning and was informed that the Doc did not have coffee jitters --- all our babies were prepped and ready.

People do suck-

We received a phone call last night. A previous adopter from FIVE YEARS AGO wants to return her cat. Her now almost seven year old cat that has been with her for FIVE YEARS. Because she is pregnant.

Kitten in a box

Yes, the subject is not misleading. A friend of a friend discovered a kitten TAPED shut in a box in her back yard the other day. Word came to me and last night after talking with several rescues, placement has been found for the baby named Jack. We are going back to the pound and pick up four more....

Three came home-- and one's possum

We went to the pound, met the new city vet. I have never in all my years of rescue seen so many kittens in the pound at one time. Baby kittens!!!!
