Latest Goings On and Thank Yous

We are now at 97 saved and 77 adopted. :)

We were invited to participate at Colorado State University’s annual Cat Care Conference. Thank you Dr. Lappin and CSU Student Chapter of the American Association of Feline Practitioners!!!

Thank you to Rose and Don Carrol for donating a sleeve of FVRCP vaccines. Rose is also a wonderful hair stylist and I highly recommend that everyone should go to her. She has done a wonderful job with me and hiding the gray hairs. :)

Judy Prins not only started our year off right by donating $500, but she also came out to help unload the second shipment of Merrick canned food, what a trooper and friend to both the kitties and I!!

Kenny and Brittany Knowles for helping in remodeling the house, since it looks like we will be home based for a bit longer, so might as well make it nice for both the human and the kitties, thank you.

Cat Kuhlman, the White family, Shange, for all your help in the laminate flooring project, man alive it was a lot of hard work, thank you and I owe you all BIG Time!!!

KONG Pet products donated a whooping amount of cardboard cat scratchers and toys for our kitties. They make wonderful dog toys as well!!! The cats were trying to steal toys as soon as I opened the box. :)

Yeowee Catnip toys gave us a huge box of their toys and many a pudkin are very happy while they await their forever homes!!

Avoderm pet foods has been very kind in donating cases of samples of their dry kibble for cats and kittens as well as a few bags of their foods and cans. Thank you Susan!!

D.O.G.S. (at Centerra) Christina, Felix, the whole family are wonderful not only to us both other groups, so please consider shopping with them, if they don’t have it they will get it for you. :)

Lumber Liquidators donated laminate flooring to Duncan’s, since the kitties need a better, cleaner household to live in, until forever homes are found, so thank you. The human loves not having to steam clean carpets any more, and Princess Buttercup and my Ainsley’s various allergies and asthma have decreased greatly!!

Idexx laboratories donated a box of FIV/FeLV/HW tests to us and also enrolled us on their shelter discount program, the box of tests usually costs us $500, so this was a major help in our medical care of our cats and kittens, since we test everyone!!!

If you did not hear, Merrick gave us another whooping 9 pallets of canned food!!! We distributed it to groups like Friends of Ferals, Pure Heat Rescue, Denkai, seniors in need, families that needed help and of course our kitties!! There are a lot of happy felines running around in NOCO and the Western Slope because of Merrick, THANK YOU!! We sent 2 pallets to a small group on the Western Slope and they are distributing to other small groups that don’t have too much help. So please think about feeding your pets this wonderful, high quality food, they make dog food as well. :)

Hagen pet products for the Cat it Fountains and pretty cool pink pet carriers, thank you!!

Domino’s Pizza on Eagle Dr. here in Loveland for donating pizza to feed the hungry workers with the laminate flooring.

Arte Pizza, yummy, and thank you!!

King Soopers on Eagle Dr. for donating a gift card to buy beverages, treats for the flooring project. :)

Drs. Foster and Smith for a $25 gift certificate.

Flower essences from http://www.FlowerEssencesForAnimals.com

David Baehr for donating a microscope!! Wahoo we can do a lot of our own lab work, he donated a state of the art centrifuge to us a year ago and some really nice cages that we donated a few to Friends of Ferals!!

We have a lot of events coming up and can use your help with: the vaccine clinic next weekend at Jax here in Loveland, Paws on the Promenade (May), The Linnea Walk(June), NOCO LOCO Cat Show (June), our July vaccine clinic at JAX, and the Vets and Pets events this summer (Aug.)… so far!!! So please call or e-mail so we can have the much needed help in participating in these fun community events. We are also thinking about doing a barbecue some time in the summer to thank you all and of course raise money.

Right now it looks like Toons is the last original Duncan’s Place kitty that has not found her home yet, so let’s put out positive thoughts for her to be adopted, she is a cat’s cat and is pretty darn funny!!

So, I think that is all for now, but you never know with me and the wonderful luck and support we have gotten from so many!!

More Good News

Merrick is generously donating even more food to DP’s! :) We will need help unloading and storing it–let us know if you can help! Also, if you know of anyone/organizations that could benefit from a food donation, let us know. We want to pay it forward! (The food we are getting is OK for dogs or cats.)

If you haven’t been to D.O.G.S. at The Promenade Shops at Centerra, please check them out! They have been so kind to us! Thank you Christine and her wonderful family.

Gata was adopted, hooray!

Took in 3 kittens from a meth house! Had to detox the poor babies, but they should be ready to head to a drug-free furever home soon! They are 2 Tuxedos (Flower and Etty Bitty), and General Tao (Lilac point/snowshoe cross–I just call him Little Man).

Larimer County Veterinary Association has promised us a donation, too. Thank you!
