Isn't she beautiful ?

Riley and Diego .... striking fear in the hearts of many hoomans

Both came to Rikki's with bad cattitudes .... they've improved ... but if you annoy them ... and that can be just by your presence sometimes .... they can certainly have fear provoking attitudes !!!!! We love out psycho kitties !!!! I'm sorry, you won't get to meet them if you visit ..... until they learn to treat hoomans a little better, they have to stay in their own room when visitors come !!

It was another hay hauling day

photo compliments of Clarence Deal

We've now got enough to get us thru the winter. It was such a good deal we bought all we could ..... but SHE spent the money that should a been for cat and dog food ..... you'll help me still get nums, won't you? www.RikkisRefuge.org/Donate

With all that hay .... I think we should do something like this !!!!

Babydoll, Jinx and Spyro .... three little kittens who lost their mittens ... and their home ... and their mom .... came to Rikki's today for a whole new life .....born wild and free in someone's yard to one of their barn cats, they've decided to get rid of everybody. Mom was a bit friendly and taken to an adoption place, but they wouldn't take the hissin and spittin kittens. So here they be. Runny eyes, diarrhea, and Spyro (the wildest of all) has a horrible sore butt, hey all need meds for a while and he needs his butt soaked and cleaned several times a day to see if it heals up. He doesn't have much of a tail so he could have manx syndrome. Cross paws it's just so sore and raw from diarrhea.

and Rosie ...... needed a new home because land surrounding their's was being developed and the folks in the neighborhood didn't like living next door to pigs .... and sometimes they'd get out of their pen ... the pigs ... not the new people .... and they'd dig up gardens and do piggy things ....

Welcome them to Rikki's where we expect them to be happy piggys and dig up everything they want !!!!

It was a relatively quiet peaceful routine sort of day .... and evening began to fall before we even realized it was getting late.

Nighty !!!!
