From our FLCAS friends

Microchips are essential to ensure lost pets are able to be returned to their owners. FLCAS funds free microchip clinics for county Residents & in 2025 sponsored nearly 600 free microchips to ensure lost pets aren’t lost for long.

What a day. Now, Sakura has cut her leg on one of her few remaining teeth when she began compulsive grooming and bled all over the blanket in her bed. Youngest don and zi cleaned her up, gave her gabepentin and tried to put a collar on her. Collar was too much so we took it off. Sigh.

Please donate today on #GivingTuesday to help the cats that survived this house fire. We estimate there are 40-50 cats living on the property, many of who are social or semi-social indoor/outdoor cats that escaped the fire. Many need extensive care.

You can choose to set up recurring payments through our P-yPal/Ko-Fi.$2 will feed a kitten for a day. Imagine if all of our followers donated just $1 a month!
We absolutely appreciate every one-time donation, but sustaining donors help prevent “feast or famine” spikes in fund availability.

I have respect for those who criticize me. Everyone has the right to a stupid opinion.

On #GivingTueaday, we know there are so many worthy charities who rely on donations asking for money. It can feel hard to support everyone when we’re all spread so thin.

Sustainable monthly giving is the lifeblood of rescues & makes a huge impact for just a few $’s each month: linktr.ee/crits4cats

Shoot! After approving my $500 loan, the company sent me an e-mail saying they declined it. So, I have two more days to come up with $500 to pay back on the 10th when I get paid. Sigh. I hope my blood pressure doesn't rise now that I'm off the meds. Last night, my ankles swelled. Must not stress.

There will be less words written today. Last night, when we went to the emergency room, I paid out of my rent money (her insurance hadn't taken effect yet), and I was short on paying rent after that. So, I spent all morning to get one of those million dollar interest rate loans so I could pay rent.

I wrote 1,674 words on DDD. Forgot to post it before shutting off computer. We had a medical emergency tonight and I'm pretty distracted.

As much as I object to much of Christianity at this point in my life (which isn’t meant to yuck on anyone’s yum, I just have had bad childhood experiences) I am looking for a bracelet with a cross on it for someone for the Capitalist Winter Holiday. Would much rather buy small than corporate!
