Weekend Events

Spring is in full swing, and we are busy as ever.  We are back at the Urbana Farmer's Market and kicked off the weekend there!  We had a small table set up near the main entrance with cat mint and crochet cat beds to sell that have been made for us by a wonderful woman in Mansfield, IL.  
We had several people approach us needing information on how to get their cats fixed and a few people expressed interest in volunteering! 
The weather was wonderful and the music was great. 

Meanwhile, foster mom Sue and company held down the fort at the Petsmart Adoption Drive which continues through Sunday.  
We had the dashing Boo who is just about as handsome as a cat can get.  He's around 2 years old and is just a joy to be around.  
Benji did really well at Petsmart.  He's a special guy looking for a special family.  
I can't forget Farley.  He looks sad in this picture, but he's actually just really sleepy from his canned food.  If you haven't met Farley yet, you must stop by Petsmart tomorrow between 1pm and 3pm.   He is 4-paw declawed and his former 'owners' tossed him outside to fend for himself in the winter.  He lost part of his ear and tail to frostbite.  Gentle Farley doesn't hold any grudges, he's still willing to give people another chance as long as they promise to keep him warm and indoors and never throw him away.  
Huge 'thank you' and kitten kisses to the generous person who donated 2 large bags of towels to us.  They came just at the right time.  

We'll be at Petsmart again next weekend Saturday 11am-2pm and Sunday 1pm-3pm.  We have two litters of kittens in the program right now that will be ready to be adopted by May 15.  If I can convince their foster moms to let me steal them for a few hours, we'll be showing kittens in addition our fantastic adoptable adults.
