Friday Wrap Up

I decided I'd better write in my blog now, because tonight I'll no doubt be too tired.  It's true, the majority of my energy is spent from early morning until around 3 pm, where I clunk out until about 4 and then I'm renewed.  I have to drive out in Friday traffic this afternoon to pick up 7 kittens at the vets and check them into Petsmart.  God, I hate traffic.  I thought I left that when I left Southern California.  Silly moi. 

I'm happy to report that "Romeo" the urgent sick tabby at the shelter has been rescued!  I had a lovely sounding adopter for him, but another rescue snatched him up after seeing my blog.  I don't care in the least bit - I'm just glad he's out of there and there is (unfortunately) never a shortage of cats. 

We have a foster Mom going to the shelter tomorrow to rescue a Mom and kittens.  I love hearing that and pray they all stay healthy.  Sick, dying newborns is a struggle for any foster Mom to contend with...

Our adoption line is ringing this Friday afternoon.  I love hearing that phone ring!  While the phone is ringing and I'm busy working,  I have a friendly helper with my new foster kitten:

I was asked to give some awesome information about the shelter from where I rescue.  The only problem is I've NEVER mentioned the name of the shelter in my blog, so I won't do it now.  On October 1st, they're offering a LIFETIME cat registration and microchip clinic for $12.50!  I wish I lived in that area - I'd take advantage of it.  I think it's a big step in the right direction for this high volume shelter.  Baby steps - nothing is fixed overnight. 

Our big Comedy Fundraising Event is in one week from tonight...I'm starting to get excited!  I love stand up comedy and am hoping that we'll sell out! 

I'm finally caught up from Monday.  After an afternoon of sending several humiliating emails, "Which cats do you have now?" I think we're in good shape.  Our bank account is balanced, my desk is clean and phone calls have been returned.

The weekend is shaping up....now on to the adoptions...
