To celebrate number 12, I'm gonna pay it forward and help homeless and feral street cats less fortunately than myself. I'm asking for donations to Union City Feral Cat Committee. I've chosen this nonprofit because their mission means a lot to me, and I hope you'll consider contributing as a way to celebrate with me. Every little bit will help me reach my goal. UCFCC is feeding many local colonies as well as taking care of sick cats like Mary, who was found close to death. She couldn't eat cos of an ulcer on her tongue. Thanks to UCFCC, she's now healed and searching for her forever home. I have a tip jar available on Facebook where you can donate if you like me, this blog, or just want to help. I fully understand if you don't have any green papers to spare after vet bills, etc.
Here's a little more about Mary, the face of my fundraiser. She was dumped at the empty Union City Department of Public Works building despite being declawed. When she was found crying in front of the trailer where UCFCC keeps the feral cats who are sick and recuperating, she only weighted 5.4 lbs and may not have lived more than a day or two had she not been rescued by UCFCC. She was taken to Secaucus Animal Hospital where she was giving intravenous fluids and had blood work done. Mary had to stay overnight because of an uncontrolled flea infestation and a painful coin-size ulcer on her tongue that didn't allow her to eat. Her initial vet bill was $527.
A guy at the DPW who was helping feed her at the trailer released her without UCFCC's knowledge or consent and she had to survive 4 to 5 more weeks of harsh weather before she was rescued again. Thanks to UCFCC and Dr. D. she is now fully cured and looking for her forever home. I hope you'll donate to my fundraiser so I can assist UCFCC to help more cats like Mary. As a thank you, I'm gonna pick one donor to send a coveted IKEA rat to. TW bought me one for a Gotcha Day present and she also bought an extra.
Now let's get this pawty started!!!
What's a pawty without food? Help yourself. We have roast chicken, ribs, prawns and fresh fish. Doesn't everything look tasty?
If you'd rather just have sweets, my private bakery specially made some nip cupcakes.
I have some bottles of my special Meowlot for those cats old enough to partake. I know those Tabbies o' Trout Towne will be happy to see it. Our bartender will be making niptinis and meowgaritis. Kittens will have to drink cat milk or nip nehis.
I want to thank you all for being my furrend for the past nine and a half years. I'm so glad TW and Pop decided to allow me to move in with them and to share my stunningness with the world. I'm the luckiest little ghetto kitteh in the world.

Happy Gotcha Day, CK! What a great way to celebrate...by helping others less fortunate.
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, CK! Hope you're having a purrfect day!
ReplyDeleteHoly smoked tuna, KC, I never knew your whole story (just read it) and you come from Jersey City, my hood where I was found. But you were there way before me so we did not run into one another although that could have been interesting, BOL. So Happy Gotcha Day to you and I am going to go send some of my kibble over to your fundraiser.
ReplyDeleteI meant CK, darned paws can't type.
DeleteHappy birthday CK! You’re still stunning after all these years and I helped myself to your Meowlot and Butterfly is over the moon with the prawns and nip cupcakes! Purrs from AngelSmokey8 and Butterfly
ReplyDeleteHappy 12th Gotcha day, CK, my favourite ghetto kitteh!! May you rule the roost for another dozen years and more!! ❤️❤️❤️
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, CK! We love your twisted sense of humor. Don't let anyone tell you your blog doesn't matter - it's a pleasure to read and I won't stop coming by even if TW never stops by my blog (though it'd be nice ... and my cats are going to be really ticked off that I actually told anyone that). Just thought you should know that your blog is a pleasure and not out of obligation (comment for comment) :)
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Gotcha Day CK! Sorry we's late, da momma are still a lil flu-ish. Hopefully we made it tome for some snacks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great Pawty! CK You are my hero and I must say, you are my favorite blog! I also think you are beautiful!
