Random update: Never thought CD would get that big. He boops with his nose and paws when you ignore the boop, when he alerts. He is pretty amazing. Picture of him as a baby is from over 2 years ago.

(picture of him laying down) Here he is this past weekend when I took him into Top Shelf. It finally cooled off enough close to 9:45pm for me to walk him over. Here he is wearing a head halti, but leash is not clipped to it. Halti has a clip running from it to the collar. Wanted to see how he did without the vest (vest is not required by law). He did great.

I'm going to miss him Monday when I head to my long-term sub class. Not taking him with me to the school at this point. He hasn't been around a ton of kids and it will be a kindergarten class. Want to see what my class will be like, get to know the kids, before going through the district to get CD (service dog) approved. He has done great when we have taken him into big crowds.

I am taking a timer to remind me to drink, migraine meds, salt packets, glucose tabs and my glucose monitor in the meantime. CD can usually detect issues before I can.

Not rescue related, but kind of rescue related... as we could not have gotten this far in the year without ya'll. It's been a whirl wind the past couple of months.

Hoping to only need help with main kitty supplies for one more month. (See previous post). Otherwise, after that, it will be help with vet bills here and there for the most part.

Between working with a foster dog to get her to do better on leash, having health flare ups, fractured my foot, losing an amazing friend of the family to a motorcycle accident, helping others, and filling out application after application... I now have a lvl1 fingerprint card here in AZ and I start my substitute teaching officially in a little over week (fall break is next week). This time next year, I will be working on a teaching certificate. (Insert jumping up and down here, like a little kid in a candy store)

Can't wait to be back on track!!!

Those of you who said stay positive, thank you for your encouragement.

Image Tax:
Zunnie (hospice kitty) and Dax (foster) having a peaceful moment for once.
Demon - he's the one that had ear surgery on both ears a while ago. Isn't he looking amazing? He's a big boy!
MEME - Am an introvert trying to mentally prepare for a few months of kindergarten kids. Kids and animals are my passion, should have been a teacher instead of a web/graphic designer 15 years ago, lol!

Anyways, ya'll are amazing, don't forget that. Some of us small rescues would never make it without your kindness, compassion, patience and understanding. May the rest of this year bring every single one of you many blessings.

Some updates for some awesome people!

This update is a massive Thank You to Hans R., Liz B. & Elizabeth H.!
Kitty needs have been met over the past couple of months due to their help with the dry kitty food and litter boxes. Have had to go to a few dollar trees to track down some Salty Cat Salmon cans as one of our picky eaters has chosen it lately.

We are in need for another kitty dry food order. If you donate through paypal or venmo, that will go towards a Sams Club order. If you want to order through our Chewy Wishlist, its the Friskies Dry food - Seafood flavor. (as you can see what dry food we have been ordering in the screenshots)

On 9/11, we honor the innocent lives lost, humans and animals alike 🐾, and the first responders that gave their all that fateful day. 🚒🚓🚑 May we continue to remember and reflect.

We appreciate everyone's support and patience. ❤️ Here is the latest update, with more to come soon.

- Thank you to the 1 or 2 people who sent $5 e-gift cards from Chewy. We received 2. ❤️

- Why we have been pretty quiet: TTCR's family has had a rough 3 weeks. We love our CIO and her family, and seeing the loss she is going through makes us wish we could rewind time for her. We are families of angel babies/children—always loved, never forgotten.

- Skunkaroos is going back for his 3rd follow-up. He had his 3rd dental procedure 2 weeks ago to remove the last of his teeth. He is doing better, though he still slobbers a bit. Imagine a mastiff in a cat body, and you'll understand what we mean by that, lol.

- We can still use more donations. You can donate directly to our vet or through Chewy. PayPal and Venmo work too, but we know most prefer to donate directly to where we get services or place orders. ❤️

- If you know anyone in homeowners insurance, please message us. We've been informed that our insurance will require us to redo all the plumbing in our house (because it's over 50 years old) by October, or they will refuse to renew our policy. Most of the plumbing was replaced before we moved in, but we don't have invoice proof.

Here's a pic of our senior CiCi, again, for tax. We couldn't resist catching her snoozing in the sink. She looks so petite here.

Deal Pest Control handled our pest control needs till I lost my job and could not afford them to come out anymore. They are amazing. Can't wait to afford to have them back out.

If you are in Phoenix and surrounding areas, give them a call!

16/06/2024

Okay, we thought about tossing these on the floor and letting a cat choose... however, that turned into a fiasco of chasing down cats with paper balls in their mouths.

So my partner in crime said we would just put all the paper balls in his hat and he'd choose one.

So the WINNER of the "name those kittens" is Liz B! Congrats!

If you missed out on this raffle, be ready, there are 4-7 more kittens (currently with colony care taker).

We are having to reset raffle drawing for tomorrow afternoon. Setting up for TNR kittens. Dropped of 3 tier cage to colony caretaker so she could work on trapping the babies. Adults are already in process of being TNR'd.

We have to rearrange a bit to set up for the kittens to come here.

So you have till Noon tomorrow to get your raffle tickets.

Pic tax: Check out Jade sleeping, flat face into Riff Raff's back. He is so adorable!

Just a reminder - Last chance to get raffle ticket for naming of kittens. $5 for each raffle ticket. Kitties will choose the winner tomorrow (Friday) afternoon!

The two tabbies are boys, we believe, But we hope the winner has some girl names just in case we got it wrong, lol!

We have 3 amazing entries so far:
Hans 20 raffle tickets
Liz 2 raffle tickets
Leah S. 3 raffle tickets

Not the greatest pic but we had just put them back in so we could head to vets office. These are the two cuties that will have their names chosen by a raffle winner this week.

He’s a champ! He’s scheduled for another dental 1st of July. Tried to save the canines but stomatitis isn’t going to allow for that, so they will removed.

Weather has started to stay over 100 degrees during the day. We have hit over 110 degrees.

Our ferals are provided water in the shade, fans to keep cool and we will be putting out frozen water bottles/jugs. They get food twice daily.

Indoor kitties are staying cool of course but we still keep it around 80 degrees inside, until we have to turn it down more.

As you can see, Frack is waking up from his afternoon nap with me. He loves nap times as he can sprawl on me or lay next to me and crash. He has to have at least a paw touching me. Rest are all napping right now as I type this.

Us humans are changing to vampire mode, get more done during dark hours and sleeping part way through the hotter hours of the day. I may join the kitties in another nap though as I haven't handled the heat well at all this year. Not at all. Having POTs does not help, can't regulate my own body temperature. Glad the kitties don't judge me for health.

Please, if you are in a state where its over 100 degrees, stay safe! Safety tips: Use water wisely
Drink about 1 cup of water per hour and at least 2-3 liters / 0.5-0.8 gallon per day.
Wet your skin using a damp cloth, spray, or wet clothing.
Don't go out mid-day if possible.

If you have dogs, please limit outside exposure during the day and do NOT walk after 10a or before 6p. Ground, even dirt and turf, tend to be too hort.

This coming week, we will do the raffle.

We did lose the grey/white baby, failure to thrive.
The two baby tabbies have the constant zoomies, always on the go. Between the 2, they eat at least 5oz every 5-6 hours. One is really quiet and playful, the other is a little loud mouth and thinks he is bigger than the adult cats. Pictures coming soon.

We missed our chewy order. So got a bit of a worse deal and got smaller bags for the $35 we received, won't last as long but kitties are happy. That's all that matters.

Got accepted for a 1 hour a week job (yeah, minimum wage) creating Instagram posts for mental health awareness for a Christian based clothing company. They are launching this month.

If you want to help the kitties: share our posts, donate towards supplies or vet bill. Skunkaroos goes back in Monday for 2nd dental follow up.

We found a kitten back around Thanksgiving. Sat out there, in the sprinkling rain, in the dark, trying to catch a black kitten, in our backyard.
Now, my dad called us to let us know to sneak out to see the cat that has been visiting over the past few months. She has the same body shape and smaller head shape that the kitten does. So she is on our TNR list.

Momma cat will need a name.
We still need $30 to get the 2 bags of dry food from chewy. (see posts on wall).

It's been an amazing eve. No fireworks going off. Hoping that means less dogs being posted as lost tomorrow. Can hope, right?

Hubert's FIP treatment has been extended for another 4 weeks. He's doing great otherwise.
BamBam and Pebbles are doing great. Finished FIP treatment/observation completely.
Our 3 kittens are doing great. Will try to get some decent pics that are not blurred. They tend not to sit for pics, lol!

The 7 kittens near cat killer - Have colony caretaker getting kittens used to seeing the trap when they eat. Hoping it makes it easier to trap all 7 of them. Need to get them trapped within next couple of weeks.

One step in the right direction, right?

Starting off this request different by introducing 2 out of 3 kittens. We have almost made it through end of May, almost, until someone dropped off 3 kittens. We have past the bottle feeding stage, and now on can food stage. However, they need names. That is where you come in... for every $5 donation that comes in, the donor gets added to a raffle to win the chance to name all 3 kittens. We generally do themes like Lion King, Eragon, etc.
