| | No One Loves You Like Your Mom
“A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie.” ~Tenneva Jordan
“A man’s work is from sun to sun, but a mother’s work is never done.” ~Author Unknown
“Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy…” ~Every 4-year old you’ve ever encountered...
Each year on Mother's Day we like to thank the FFGW Foster Moms who make possible what we do together - you supply the LOVE in "Food, Litter and Love," our fostering mantra. This year, we want to tell you the story of Blossom, a furry mom, and the human mom who helped save her and her family!

| | It's Not Too Late to Make It Up to Mom For That Awful Mother's Day Gift You Got Her! |
| | You Can Get Mom a Kitten!
(Tell your Mom not to panic... she doesn't actually get a live kitten!)
For just a donation of $50, you can sponsor a kitten in FFGW's care - and help defray the more than $500 it takes to prepare just one kitten for adoption.
When you donate on line, select "Honor" and in the message tell us you're sponsoring a kitten for mom - we'll send you a photo of the kitten that your donation is helping, and a little story of the kitten's rescue.
And, if you come by our Leesburg adoption event, we'll give you or Mom a Feline Foundation t-shirt!
Honor a human mom by helping a feline mom on Mother's Day!

| | | FFGW Spring Yard Sale A Success!
We sold the whole yard*
Thanks to everyone who donated, organized, staffed the sale, we were able to raise almost $1000 to help the kitties!
*Not quite the whole yard... we have an amazing assortment of kitty things left over, and we bet folks would buy them to help support our rescue efforts.
We're looking for community fairs this summer where a non-profit rescue could sell this great cat stuff, FFGW t-shirts, etc.
If your neighborhood is having a community event or yard sale and there's an opportunity for us to have a table, please let us know! You can just reply to this newsletter - thanks! |
