Today we will welcome Wyatt to the rescue!! Please stop by for a visit, we have a cake for us humans (and Paris!) and tuna for our furry friend Wyatt. It will take a few weeks for Wyatt to adjust to his new family at Almost Home. He has been extremely traumatized from his ordeal. He has grown very fond of Tanessa, Vicki and I but he is pretty timid with others. Being at the rescue will allow him to meet lots of new friends and it will allow us to show him lots of love, so one day he feels safe again.

We will continue to update Wyatt’s followers with his progress. He has gained nearly 6 pounds this past month and weighs about 11 pounds now!! His tremors are gone and he is eating normal amounts of food now. We will help him gain more strength with physical therapy several times each week. His eye has not responded to treatment and is going to be removed next week. It is causing him pain or we would not do this. I think other than his eye issue; he will soon be a great kitty for someone to love. Wyatt’s recovery is truly a miracle!

If you are not able to come to the party you can join us on the webcam, click on the Kitten Cam at the top of this page or at  http://ustre.am/REUt at 1:00 pm. See you there!

  

Ruby had a dental yesterday and had to have several teeth extracted. I think 11!! Hopefully, this will make her feel much better. Thank you Rich, for taking such good care of Ruby. Heather took our FIV+ kitten, Vivian, home so she will get lots more love and attention. Thanks Heather!  Eric picked up the King Soopers donation as he does monthly! Thanks Eric!! Sherry worked very hard on getting some much needed paperwork submitted. Thanks Sherry! 

We had a visit from a gentleman that works for a cat food company and he wants to help us get donations of food from them for Almost Home. This would mean we could feed the kitty’s really good food! Please keep your paws crossed that this will happen!

We had many calls for help this week. There were 3 different community cat situations.  We can trap, neuter and release at 2 locations but at one location animal management is going to trap and kill if someone doesn't help. We are going to try….

Forever homes for more kitties! Shelby, Kirby, Jimmy, Sapphire, Kenya and Azula now have warm laps to curl up in! We had another spay/neuter day and we also had several intakes too.

  

I love watching the kitten webcam. It is so cute to see how the older kittens teach the younger ones how to run on the wheel. They have quite the playground including the new caterpillar tunnel.

  

Wishing for a great adoption weekend and wishing you a wonderful weekend wherever you are!

Kindness to Critters Always,
