Cat Report

I’m a little late getting this posted, but so it goes.

Cat ROOM.  June 28th   Two o'clock Friday

 

'starved we are Precious, yes.'

 

Still five cats (and the same five) as last week: 

MAVERICK & GOOSE, 

SMOKEY & JACK

and JANE MARIE (our semi-seniors)

 

They ate as if not fed since day before, and this seems to have been the case.

So after they gave due attention to their food bowls they wanted out and wanted attention. 

 

We had many viewers. Janice shared information to several about volunteering.

 

As for the individual cats,

JANE MARIE wanted OUT.  And Attention. And Games, esp crinkly paper and string. She and I were buddies today, and spent a lot of time together.  She let me know the string game met with her demanding standards. I'd say she has an ounce of pounce for every pound of cat.

 

 

SMOKEY AND JACK.

Our young and lively pair liked the string game and also as much of the crinkly as they had time with. Smokey bites paper (some cats do, but it's fairly rare). Late in the shift, Smokey and Jack showed great enthusiasm for the laser pointer.

 

 

misc

 

Jane (and Jack) showing an interest in Outside. Unfortunately too many dogs in the store today and we decided to err on the side of caution.

 

Chatted with one visitor who identified herself as a fellow volunteer from the Tukwila cat room.  Didn't think to ask her name.

 

 

HEALTH concerns.

Jane Marie: spilled cat litter all over the place. Despite this there didn't seem to be much of it.

We worked on her ears some more; think  they look much better now.
