February 6, 2021 Saturday at Rikki’s Refuge – National Play Monopoly Day

all in a day’s work …. photos by those caring for the animals
(you can help support those animals at www.RikkisRefuge.org/Donate )

100 of the 5.5 oz cans of cat food are opened just to feed the cat runs at Feline Fields breakfast.

Then the Free Rangers will get fed, and the cats in the 9th Life Retirement, Assisted Living and Psychiatric Building will be fed. And those in the hospital. And the cats at the Life Center. And the cats in the three Office Buildings. And then any stragglers who don’t want to come out of their barns or other hidey places.

Thank you for sending cat food so we never run out !!

Any brand, any size, any number of cans. We just need YOUR help !!

Panda prays more food arrives soon

Mouky says he knows what starving feels like
and he’s glad YOU’ll never let that happen to him here.

Morning chores all done

Doug makes the rounds checking all the animals areas

for anything else they may need this morning.

And all looks good and sound

so Doug stops in the office to check his calendar

And see it’s National Play Monopoly Day and Take Your Child To The Library Day

With a grin he grabs a few things from the office and heads out.
First stop – Capri Corners for a game of Monopoly !

Well not much interest there … moving on
Baaaahhh what you got there?

I’ll bite !!!

HEY YOU !!! NO FAIR !!! You don’t win if you eat the game !!

Next he headed to Horsey Haven to have a game with our Prince while the sheep looked on

Batman had a great idea

and called Buza over for Cats vs Dogs game of Monopoly

in which the cats thoroughly trounced the dogs. I think Doug helped the cats win.

Enough Monopoly for today, let’s take the kids to the library now!
But when Doug got there with the car full of cats, they locked the doors and said, “here, takes these books home and read to your kids there.”

And so … back at the Life Center
Crybaby loves sitting on Doug’s lap and hearing stories of her kind.

When it was Riley’s turn, she said, “just drop that book right here, and there will be no blood.”

…. Doug promptly complied. Everybody listens to Riley. Blood stains are such a mess to clean up.
