I just wanted to give you an update on our little feral guy; he is just so funny and has been great entertainment. We kept him in for the longest time it was more than 3 months and you know he got pretty used to being an indoor kitty in fact he was very fat and lazy to the point where a diet was not going to reduce the bulk. So out he went and gradually for longer periods of time by the time we got him up to 6-7 hours outside it was getting harder and harder to get him in. Well he has completely transitioned now and will only come back in for short periods and only for me he definitely prefers his freedom and some of the excess weight has come off. What is really fun to watch is how the other cats tolerate him he plays and can get pretty feisty and they are ever so patient with him, never rough which of course is why he persists, but really great entertainment and joy to see them all adapt so well. I check the webpage’s still can’t stay away but with 5 cats and 2 dogs we are pretty much maxed out. I am so thankful to you and all the staff there for all the wonderful animals that have come to us through you, they are loved and well and we think of you often with a full and grateful heart.

Merry Christmas to all you wonderful people there who do so much for all the animals, I bless you regularly. All my animals are fabulous. Hans, Luke and Yoda are all fat and sassy, I keep telling Luke he and I are going to weight watchers together at the beginning of the New Year. Holly is just lovely, without a doubt she is the most gentle and loving animal I have ever encountered and she loves me so unconditionally I am humbled by her devotion. I wonder what it is that I have done in this life that makes me deserving of such love I am truly blessed to own her. Now we are down to Harley, oh my goodness I tell him all the time I am going to make him a clown collar he makes me laugh all the time, my little feral guy is just so sweet. I still have not introduced him to the great outdoors yet and know I need to do that soon but he does not seem to mind and this way he and I have quiet time together every morning before anyone else is up. He is great company and has helped to trim my tree or actually untrim the tree and is having a ball shredding the paper and ribbon he believes it is all just for him. Happy Holidays and Peace

This has got to be the sweetest little fella we have been keeping him in the laundry room downstairs when we are not playing with him as this room is large enough and brighter then my sewing room. This a bathroom/laundry and so he found the toilet paper yesterday, so cute he used it to make a nest, guess he doesn’t like his fuzzy leopard plush bed as much as he likes his own devices. He is just a sweetie and he is adjusting well, yesterday we had him chasing and enjoying his light up ball, today he was delighted with his catnip filled mouse with the feather tail so he is entertaining us and we are indulging him and its working wonderfully.
