The Calendar is in!!!!

Our wonderful volunteer, Jan T., just dropped off the 2010 FCCR calendars,
and they turned out absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
The cost to own one of these beauties is only $20 -
ALL of which goes towards the homeless kitties in our community.
A HUGE thank you goes out to Nicole Habel of The Image Gallery: imagegalleryinc.com. Nicole is a professional photographer that does beautiful work, and graciously offered to put together the FCCR calendar for the second year in a row.
It took hours of her hard work to create such an impressive product!
We also owe a thanks to Friendship Hospital for Animals who helped to choose
the 12 winners for this year.
An extremely hard task when you have over 70 adorable pictures to choose from!
I also want to mention that earlier this month I lost my 3-year old kitty, Squishy, in a tragic and heart-breaking accident. Quite a while before the accident I had submitted a photo of him for the calendar. His picture was not chosen to represent one of the months, but a picture of Jan's kitty was. When Jan found out about my tragedy, she selflessly had the photo of her kitty, Margo, replaced with the picture of my Squish. I had no idea, and when the calendars arrived today and I turned to September, I burst into tears.
Thanks to my friend, Jan, I get to share Squishy's memory with anyone
that purchases one of our calendars.
I am deeply grateful.
There are only 100 calendars available for purchase, so get yours while they last!!

Good News!!!

We have been so busy these last few weeks that it has been hard to write any updates, but we have lots of good news!

We finally had a van donated to us thanks to the generosity of Jim Madl!!!! Brian K. is working on some FCCR decals for the van to spruce it up!

Cats in the Garden at Bath Garden Center and Nursery was a huge success! We just received a check for over $700!!

Also, we received a check for over $2000 from Natural Balance due to the diligence of the Poudre Pet & Feed staff. They cut the UPC's off of all of the bags of Natural Balance that they sell, and send them in. Natural Balance then makes a donation for each UPC.

Thank you, thank you!!
