Update for Boobalah

Our beautiful Boobalah!

Greetings Boobalah Friends,

I hope this beautiful month of April is treating you well. Boobalah is happy and enjoying each new day. If one is to try and spend some time with Boobalah, as I did recently, they had better check with Bellamy first. Bellamy tries to claim first dibs on all “hooman” visitors. But as in everyday life, “we don’t always get what we want!”

Bellamy, planning to ambush one of ‘his hoomans!’

Boobalah was in an extra playful mood recently. She bolted across the room and went flying into the tunnel while pummeling the toys inside the tunnel.  Then, unbeknownst to me, she realized that it was lunchtime, and she disappeared. I later found her assisting at the front desk, all the while filling her belly. Grecca looks on, hoping Boobalah will leave her some crumbs!

Boobalah lost a bit of weight this past month, so the vet did some investigating. The team ran full blood work along with a urinalysis and everything was as it should be and in normal ranges. Woo-hoo! Boobalah had a few instances of loose stool this month. Since we record her stool every time we express her, we are able to look for patterns. Nothing came up that required medical intervention, so all seems to be well in Boobalah’s world.

                              Lunch time!

In other news, by now you know that Tabby’s Place is building an expansion called Quinn’s Corner, for vulnerable cats with feline leukemia virus (FeLV). As we prepare to open our expansion later this year, our need for volunteers increases. Volunteers are a huge part of our operation, as we could not run Tabby’s Place without them.

Beginning in May, we will launch an intense volunteer recruitment campaign to find those willing to give the gift of time and make an impact on the lives of our cats.  If you know of anyone who would be interested in volunteering (perhaps even you!), please let them know we will soon be reaching out with more details. (They can sign up to receive our emails here; scroll down to the “subscribe” box.) There are many types of volunteer duties to fit diverse abilities and schedules.

Thank you for all you do for Boobalah and for Tabby’s Place. None of this would be possible without you!

Have a beautiful month!
