NEWS FOR CAT LOVERS
===================================
First things first. I won't be home this week. This
newsletter is coming to you by automated delivery.
Which means these stories may not be as new as "breaking
news." But they are interesting anyway, and I picked them
because I thought you would enjoy reading them.
I will "see you" when I get back. Hope you have had a
happy week.

A SMILE FOR YOU
===================================
Sable had her kittens!
At the end of July, someone dumped a stray (and very
pregnant) cat in my yard. Thanks, Kathy, for naming
her Sable. It fits and she likes it.
She was farther along than the vet estimated and she
had her babies on Aug. 9. Just three, but it took her
all night to do it. She's so small, she had a hard time.
Sadly, we lost the tiniest one just 24 hours later, but
the first two are hanging strong and growing. We have a
boy and a girl. I'll be asking for help with names!
So put on your thinking caps and get ready!

TAKE ACTION TO HELP ANIMALS IN NEED
===================================
How to help the animals:
1.
http://www.hipaws.com/help.html
Help feed the ones that never got adopted.
2. Always remember to check with your local shelter
to see what they need. Your donation will go directly
to the animals, in sharp contrast to some of the large
national groups, whose donation income goes toward
large administrative salaries and other expenses, not
necessarily for animals.
3. Buy a book from my book list, if you haven't yet.
Sales are used to support all the cats here. Thank you.

May all who are lost, be found. May all who are ill,
be well. May all in harm's way, be saved. May all
without homes, be loved.
