Hellooooo everyone!Not sure where to start, do you prefer good news or bad news first?I am a rip the bandage off type of girl, give me the vinegar firstso I can chase it with sugar. We will do the good first :)As you know, if you regularly read the weekly newsletterJackson Galaxy was here last weekend. It was a packedhouse with over 100 people attending! A huge thank you toBeasley Broadcasting for running lots of PSA’s. Many People thatcame had never heard of us so we may get some local volunteers which would be awesome!
If you click on the pictures they will pop out bigger, I wanted to be able to put more pictures.
So, hope you enjoyed all the good news :) there are several videos on our http://ustream.tv/blindcatrescue of him, check them out. He and Kate were very kind and gracious and we were very happy to have had him visit.
There will be a wine shipping special on Monday the 30th$10. flat shipping on all orders over $99. Watch for it on the next newsletter and on Facebook. This is a really good wine and would make a great present!
Now the sad news. As you know Treasure has been ill.

He wasn’t here fora long time but we hope he agreed that he got a life timeof loving while he was here. Leukemia sucks.Click on the picture to enlarge
Bloopers with Jackson
Chance
Chance became ADR Saturday morning (ADR is actually a recognizedterm in vet’s offices. It means Aint’ doing right. (OY VAY) 3 hours until Jackson is to arrive and I am rushing to the vets office. Had them do blood work and brought him home, told them to call me with the results.I finally heard the results on my voice mail late Saturday night. Hehad something serious going on with his liver. Sunday morning at7:30 am I am on the way to Raleigh because Chance is jaundiced.He was hospitalized, lots of tests run and they still do not know what is causing the problems. We are still waiting on some of the results.He is home on a feeding tube, getting lots of milk thistle (we have had cats with severe liver problems reverse with milk thistle)
Greta had dropped a pound in a week so she was taken to thevet. She is currently hospitalized while the vet tries to figureout what is going on with her. She will be coming home with another feeding tube.
Ray was hospitalized this week because he had also dropped some weight. The cats are weighed every week, that is howwe know if there is a weight loss. He has an infection going onand is home on antibiotics and nutrical
On the good news side, Casey had regained all the weight she had lost.Snicker is doing well. Autumn is developing cataracts. I suspect thatis from all the radiation. She is hanging in there.On the crazy side. The 4 FIV+ cats that tested FELV+ alltested IFA positive too, so they really are FELV+ Wevaccinated the entire room for FELV and will test them each timethey go to the vet. 10 of them have lived together for 4 years,6 are negative, 4 are positive. We will leave them together.The room is full and no more cats will be coming in.
RAFFLE WINNERS!
