Jeremy is going to be adopted really soon. So the budget is gonna stay the same. Aneth is leaving us this week for her forever home. So I will be left with Heidi who has been our Supervisor for years now. That’s why she has the best place to get lots of love and watch us at the same time.

You should see our big adoption room. Maybe 15 cats all free to go anywhere they want. It’s kind of crazy sometimes :)

We do have almost 60 cats at the shelter but only 5 or 6 are in the reception area. Heidi,the white one, is our mascot. Aneth (Dill) is the black one and Jeremy is the ginger. We also have Evelyne and Oompa. And old man Daniel (15) often takes a nap here.

His name is Jeremy. As for the chair it was gifted to us. We have a budget of 0$ for furniture.

The best thing you can do at your age is to invest in yourself. A good education or a good trade is the way to go. Be careful of anything that promises you to make you easily rich quickly. Because if it was this easy, most of us would be rich. (Personally I don't take any advice from someone who lives a very high end lifestyle. Most of them have done some illegal stuff to get there.)
I'm 51 and the most financially comfortable people I know are the ones with a diploma in a high demanding field or have a business. They are all also very frugal with their money.
So save your money for your education and don't buy stuff to impress others (especially at credit) and you will be better off than a lot of people.

That’s why religion shouldn’t be mixing with politics.
The Catholic Church dominated part of the Country and they did horrors to “save” people. They also did terrible things to French Canadian orphans. Putting some children with for exemple, only a stutter into Asylums, not giving them any education or good care, just because the Government was given them more money for taking care of them.
The others were on the same type of orphanage as the natives. Physical abuse, starvation, sexual abuse… all in the name of God.
My Uncle was in one of these orphanage and they were practically starved. And lots of them were sexually abused by these monsters. He said to me that he was lucky to be an ugly child. (He got 20K as an apology)
When I see what the religious right is doing in the US about abortion, I’m terrified to what will became of all those unwanted children. (Because we all know that rich people will continue to have abortions)
They won’t all get adopted that’s for sure. Will we see those huge Orphanage come back?

What happened to them is a tragedy. As a Canadian I'm truly ashamed.

A lot of Country didn't want Jewish people. Even the US had quotas. " In 1938, more than 300,000 Germans —mostly Jewish refugees —had applied for U.S. visas (entry permits). A little over 20,000 applications were approved." Source

Pets knows. I volunteer at a cat shelter and we have cats avoiding some people all the time. I remember a couple of people coming in to see a cat they saw on her Facebook post and the cat sniff them and went "No thanks" and left.
Tinkerbell thought you were a good person and since you have been together for almost 17 years, he was right.

She’s often at the terrace of the coffee show during the summer and her human always brings a blanket so she can nap on it.

You should have your drain inspected with a camera. You may have roots damaging it.

As a woman with asthma and depression, I have been having dizzy spells sporadically after getting Covid two years ago. A weird dizzy feeling that makes me throw up and be really sensitive to light. It can take 2 to 5 days to get better.
Not fun at all.

I still remember one of the cat! His name is Mordicus and he was a little devil :) We even had to send him to the Vet once because he ate the chocolate that someone had left in the open.
Apparently he's still the same in his forever home...
