selling chicks and ducks ... and gee .... when they got home their mom said
.... NO WAY ..... so now they'll live happily ever after in
the safety and comfort of Ducky Diggs at Rikki's Refuge No Kill Animal
Sanctuary ...
Now if I'd taken 'em home to
my mommey .... Not MOM my hooman

especially now .... that
I AM THE WINNER OF CATS vs
DOGS .... and I shall be the RULER OF
THE REFUGE for the next year ..... so
I have to live the part ....
kindness to all and all that
.... but I still get my Fancy Feast

and some of my volunteers at the Reston Pet Fiesta !!! Can you believe the summer circuit of
events and festivals has started?? Get

booth at events all over the sate !!!
You can do events representing Rikki's no matter where YOU are too !!! Just ask us how !!!
I don't get to go to the Pet
Fiesta ... they have live music and lots of doggies .... everybody brings their
dawggie .... and one of them might not
understand that I AM THE RULER .....
And Duke can't go either cuz loud noises agitate him and if he gets real
agitated he has seizures.
Shaggy is slowly learning to love visitors ....
he had a hard and difficult life before coming to Rikki’s
he had a hard and difficult life before coming to Rikki’s
So I'll be staying at
Rikki's all day. First I'll stupervise
da hoomans cleaning up da poo in the morning.
Then I'll do donation drop off from noon to 2 pm with Auntie Lolly.
And I'll be interviewing
very special people who want a job working at Rikki's. You gotta be real special to pass my
approval test ....
I time how fast you can
scoop cuz I don't want no dirty box .... yick ... no way ..... my personal assistant must be there to keep
it clean for me .... and to keep my plate full of Fancy Feast ... ummm hummmm.
Then I gotta put on my
business suit .... I gots to go to my first Board Meeting as the new Ruler of
the Refuge. Did I say thank you for
voting for me ? Well THANK YOU
!!!!!
After the meeting ... Iz got
to go off and sneak me some Fancy Feast as the rest of the board watches Chef
Ron grill up veggie burgers ....
Then we'll be going on the
Full Moon Walk .... that's where we
walk around in the dark with nothing but the moon to look out for the lions and
tigers and bears that might want to eat us ..... wait a minute .... do I want
to go on this walk? Maybe I better stay
home and let mom and dad lead it. Oh
! If they getted eated by a bear or
something .... will you dopt me?
Right now the weather looks
like the walk won't be so good ....
it's supposed to start getting cloudy at 6 and be pretty cloudy by 8 pm
and it doesn't got dark till 8:30 or so.
If it's as cloudy as last night, we can't do the walk. Weather hooman better be wrong .... it
better stay bright and moony .....
Here are our newest babies
....
Thank you for being my friend !!
bought at a farm store by a
teen ..... parental units most upset
.... given up the next day .... probably a pretty familiar scenario for
little ducks and chicks sold in stores as days old babies ... I wonder what the average life span is for
somebody who's life is valued at about the price of a large bag of potato chips
.... and as readily available ....
Thank goodness their teen owner cared enough and was responsible enough
to look for rescue ..... so many many end up dumped outside .... helpless ....
alone .... just waiting to be a snack
for somebody coming along .....
I'm glad these babies got
saved ... even if mom won't let me play with them ....
Ohhhh I guess I have to tell you my secret for Tuesday - don’t I ?
And I gotz a secret for
Monday too .... well it’s not so secret !!!
GGP and Uncle James will be coming on Monday !!! I so cited to see them !!!
THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF
RIKKI’S REFUGE
A PART OF OUR POSITIVE FUTURE
Sally had eye surgery this week. She’s healing nicely. She’s getting eye meds several times a day
for a couple weeks before the stitches can come out. After four days we could no longer keep her locked up. She’d found every possible way to bust
out, Finally just about totally
destroying the pen and hurting her eye in the process. Now we chase her down and catch her for the
meds each time. PLEASE Sally ... hurry up
and heal !!!!
Without
YOU
none
of us would
be here
enjoying
the beautiful greens
of spring !!
THANK YOU !!!!!!
Calvin and
friends loving the fresh spring grass
Your donations saved every
one of us and will keep us all alive in 2015 .... we pray. Please HELP US as we keep our pantries
stocked !!!! Take the Opie Pledge and promise to work each and every day to

If the pictures of the animals you have saved in this issue have made
you smile, please take a few moments to make a donation so we can keep them
