True Blood Fundraiser a Success! Thank you, everyone!

Just in case you don't get notified of followup comments, here's the good news!

As of 3:30 this afternoon, we've raised a total of $2,950 for surgery for the True Blood kittens. The vet is amazing and willing to cut us a break on the price she's charging for the surgery, which means that we have more than enough to cover surgery for all six kittens!Thank you so much for your linkage and your love! The internet is amazing. :)

To which we reply (and I think I can speak for everybody)... you are sooooo welcome, Robyn! Yay for surgery for all the True Blood babies!

To our gentle readers, and those of many other blogs who also posted the True Blood's plight (Aunty Pol said it well)... you all rocked this fundraiser!!

Scoot on Over to Love & Hisses - Time to Help the Truebloods!



The True Bloods are an entire foster litter with a congenital defect of their eyelids. Reconstructive surgery won't be cheap, but with a little help from each one of us, these precious ones will be able to have a surgery to correct their condition and give them normal vision and a pain free life! Scoot on over to Love and Hisses and let Robyn tell you the whole story!

Support Love and Hisses, Name the Angels, and See Miss Aggie's Pretty Pink Tummy!

This week I've been on a "staycation" and, of late, I've been playing & working on a project for church, so sorry for the lack of posts. But I do have a few, quick items:

First, scoot on over to Love and Hisses, if you haven't been there already.

Robyn's current foster litter, the True Bloods, need our cyberhugs and support. All of the babies in this litter have a congenital eyelid abnormality that became evident once she was able to clear up their crusty eye problem. Robyn is waiting to hear what options are available from the vet.

Second, scoot on over to Monica's World for the latest shots of Abigail's Angels (I see several of you have been there already!!). There are actually a couple of posts, so be sure to page down. Hannah's little darlings are ready for naming and Monica and Hannah would love any suggestions you may have.


Miss Agnes came through her spay surgery with flying colors. And she was chipped at the same time. She's been resting quietly, without feline company, in the bedroom/den suite. The poor Maples have been, once again, consigned to the basement while she recovers.

For the first few hours after Aggie got home, she choose to go hide in the spaghetti behind the computer desk. She correctly identified that as a place no one ever goes! ;-) (That's the edge of the crate in which her litter pan is housed, next to the desk.) Even though it's the last place I'd choose for her to rest, right after surgery, she returned to it twice, after being offered more comfy (and less dusty) alternatives. I finally decided her feeling safe was the most important thing and let her have her way.

I don't know if I told you, but Aggie's surgery had been delayed twice due to her going into heat. *sigh* Poor little Aggie... she was so miserable both times, but Doc Andrew encouraged us to have her done when she was out of heat, if possible.

Now that she's feeling better, she's a very active kitty and keeping her quiet is a challenge (that's why she's alone). Every time I tried to take a pic she thought it was an invitation to play, so I finally put my hand in to keep her still! LOL! Fortunately, as long as I'm reading or on the computer, she quietly rests beside me.


The final installment of the meet'n'greet photos will be coming next week. In answer to the question in the comments, yes, there was interest in adopting at the meet'n'greet! :-) Due to multiple vacation plans, we'll be following up the week of 8/24.

Back to the staycation now!
