I really need YOUR help !!! We’re very short on caned cat food. We haven’t had enough coming in on most days. Getting enough inexpensive canned food locally here is about impossible. So we have to take time off work and drive an hour or more or spend the extra money on it. And there is NO extra money. We’re barely scraping by. The prices just keep going up and up making it harder and harder.

Well I just got a great deal. But I NEED YOUR HELP. I got 200 cases of canned cat food for $1,696 and it should be delivered, FREE, by Saturday. And now I’ve got to pay for it …. uh oh … that’s the hard part !!! Can you possibly buy a case for $8.48 ? These are 13 oz cans and that makes it 4.77 cents cheaper per 5.5 oz average can than I can get anywhere else. And most places have restrictions on how many cases can be bought at a time. 200 cases is only about a week. And all my cats must eat !!! Please help with what ever you can !!! A case, or a can !!!

Thank you

To da dump to da dump ….. every day … all the bags of stinking ick must be loaded up into the dump truck, piled high and driven to the dump. It becomes a challenging job on muddy slippery days !!!

Hanging out on the sundeck is this afternoon’s plan

You never see any hoomans sitting around relaxing, do you ?

The poor geese are so disappointed things have been drying up. They’re hanging around in patches of snow left in shady areas, hoping for it to melt into puddles.

It’s certainly a “belly to the sun” kind of day

Contented afternoon nap

I think it might be time for treats ?

YOUR support of Rikki’s Refuge saves lives !!!

With out YOU we would not exist !!
