We had lots of cats arrive over the weekend. Squiggy came back and is reunited with his friend Jess. Carmen welcomed him into the fold as well! Welcome back, Squig!
In addition we now have Daisy, a white, gray and brown female. She is young - under a year - and has a ton of energy. You can even see that in her picture! Valerie is a dilute calico who is a couple of years old. She is a little shy and nervous but was not averse to being petted while sitting in the cage. Hopefully in a day or two she will be jumping out. Midnight is a young, big, long-haired black male. He is a beauty! He is very playful and loves attention. Because of his size he was given two cages. Corky is black and white male who is under a year old. He has no problem joining everyone for a romp.
Allie is doing so much better in the big cage! Last night she had a great time playing laser light. Some of the guys just take a little more time than others. Keep working with her.
Someone from the Shelter went today and took care of the issues mentioned in the book concerning Carmen and Jess and the matts on Midnight. Tinker is doing fine and should be joining us for the weekend.
REMINDER: If you need something brought to my attention it is not enough to note it in the volunteer notebook. You need to e-mail or call me directly. You can look at the schedule and see when I am actually at the store to read what is noted - it varies. I always check my e-mail. If you call the Shelter to report something please let me know. If you return a cat to the Shelter or one is picked up while you are there please let me know.

Special thanks to Leona who stepped in at the very last minute for me on Saturday. I clumsily fell while running and sprained my ankle and spent some time in the ER. Don't worry - I'm on the mend and will be 100% in a week or so.
