Kitten Season isn’t over yet …

Did you ever get so exhausted that you honestly wished that you would be run over by a Mack Truck.  Well, bring on that Mack Truck for this crazy cat lady. This is one of the most difficult kitten seasons ever. We have 17 babies upstairs in the 2 empty bedrooms, a dozen in the basement and about 18 in foster care, and then we come to the young adult cats. So many loving, purring hearts thanking us for saving them from a fate worse than death… Starvation, serious injury and being eaten alive by parasites and predators.

Momma Cass is looking much better today.  Keep the prayers going for her as she is responding to them.  She has actually started to eat a little on her own, but is so smart and spoiled now that she will stop eating if she sees me watching her. What a little drama queen she has turned out to be.  She is so cool and smart.

Little Evelyn, our little hit and run car accident, is facing major surgery soon. The X-rays proved that the femur bone has a complete break just below the knee.  Poor little baby, she is only 10 to 12 weeks old and already had far more pain than any little one should have to face.  Kevin and Kate McCarthy are our Caribou Pet Heros this week for coming to the aid of this baby and bringing her to HHPR. Where is the person who struck her with his car and kept on driving?  He didn’t even look back.

BTW, it is shoe packing time again.  Do you have some nicely used shoes to donate to HHPR for our recycling program?  Drop them by 11 Pioneer Ave., in Caribou and we will take it from there. Also, looking for more brand name used ink cartridges and toner cartridges. The only thing we cannot recycle is the cartridges marked as “compatible.”  Help us with our recycling programs of returnable bottles and cans; used shoes and used ink cartridges and help save our environment at the same time. You can do this and it doesn’t cost you a cent.  What a win/win situation for HHPR cats, the city dump, and the environment.
