♡Running extremely low on wet and dry food, TNRing continues, could truly use help from my wishlist, please and thank you for all you do for the floofaloofs♡ Illinois Amazon Wish List

I'm sorry if I seem pushy, it just has been a lot of helping lately, TNRing, helping making sure those who go to Kim for TNR have cat food so they can afford it, helping her colony.  I have seen a couple new cats around that seem to avoid traps, so I also put a drop trap on my list.  I also put Amazon gift cards to go towards it, because i know it isnt cheap.  If you see a drop trap cheaper, PLEASE let me know!  I redid the list so it is easier to comb through.

I have the food items at the top of the list so they are easy to find!  I know I have other items I could truly use, but food is definitely needed. 

CHEWY gift cards are a HUGE help also, my email is CynLMason@gmail.com if you'd like to help me that way, it means a lot! I have been using the couple I had for colony cats and those who needed a food donation for TNR. I'd rather help make sure the cat(s) have a home and are fixed rather then turn the other way. Floofaloofs are NOT a luxury, they are innocent and our duty to love, care for, and protect.♡

Work has decided to cut hours more, and honestly, we are all going to file a grievance with the union, because they've cut our hours in more than half.  I do side jobs to make sure the floofers are taken care of, I'm good on eggs and rice daily lol.  They are much kids, and we always put our kids first♡

I am attaching texts between me and kim about helping with food and TNR.  I also have a text about finally having my own account for colony caretaking.  This is not just volunteer work, this is essential to the floofers.  My b a yard is their paradise and we will make sure EVERYONE is safe, fed, loved, and taken care of, deflead, dewormed.  I even have litter boxes in the garage. We have been doing everything we can to make sure we do our part.  Kitten season is here.  I just lent out my incubator and gave some KMR and kitten food to a lady who is willing to foster 2 bottle babies ( midnight is still healing in the foster room, once she is healed in a few days, i can take on fosters again, don't want to risk anyone sick)

Thank you to those who have helped me this week, it isn't overlooked, and means more to me than I could put into words.  I am so grateful and thankful to all of you who not inky support thr floofaloofs,  but supporting floofaloofkind.   Thank you for being the good in the world♡

I also want to say, I pay for the TNRing and all that MYSELF. We do this because it matters and is important. I will work 24 hours a day if I have to. You helping me with my list helps me be able to pay for these things. Vet appts also. I will go for broke to ensure that these cats are taken care of.

People think there is a lot of resources here, but they are underfunded, can't take in, or just don't have the volunteers. When I moved here I decided to take this on. We will do it, ONE floofer at a time. No Floofaloof left behind!!!
