Had a busy Friday. No pictures. After feeding, watering, gardening and various household chores, it was time to do away from the ranch chores. Picked up friend and Home At Last's treasurer Su and did some Sanctuary business. The day finished with a stop at Jeannie's Consignment in Paradise. Su bought a beautiful saddle for her Gypsy Vanners. Then on the way out the door she spotted a cage full of kittens. One of Carol Stark's- owner of Jeannies- contributions to the animal world is that she takes unwanted kittens from the local shelter and finds homes for them. In the cage was a darling Siamese cross who with her mother had been tied in a pillow case and thrown away. The mother cat's tail had been tied in the pillow case knot. How can people be so cruel? Now little Pillow has a new home with Su, Jerry and Cinderella cat, who was not too pleased to have a sibling.
The evening chores were completed, later each evening as the days get warmer.
We are worried about Love dog as she is losing weight and getting crabby. She is 7 and a large dog. Dr Darling will be here Tues to give her a check-up along with Levi II. We have 5 more vaccinations to give and the dogs and cats need their boosters,
The vet bill arrived yesterday. $2300.00. The Unwanted Horse Coalition provided 20 free vaccinations, but the other 50 we had to pay for. Can anyone help us pay this good Doctor?

Later today we will get more donations from Robert who helps with estate sales and gives us whatever does not sell to take to the Thrift Store. Robert also has a booth at the Paradise Skyway Antique Mall. Thank you Robert.
This month our volunteers will meet Sunday June 26 at one of the ranches where some of our horses are grazing this summer. We will groom the horses there and help with whatever chores they need. Call 514-1439 for times and directions.
We will not be at Patrick Ranch Treshing Bee this week-end as we still do not want to expose any of the horses to the virus. We may be extra cautious, but the horses' health and well-being comes first. If you get a chance go see them in Durham. It is always fun.
Be sure to stop by the Thrift Store for really good deals. 611 Walnut Chico.
