Dear Friends,

I have great news to share with you this month. I had my final visit with a specialty dentist for my stomatitis (a painful condition that causes swelling and ulcers in the mouth), and I’ve been officially discharged! I’m now off all my medications, and my diabetes is in remission with just my special diet.

I feel so good, I decided to take some especially handsome photos for you this month.

I’m enjoying time with my friends, and all the staff and visitors that grace my orbit here in the Tabby’s Place lounge.

I hear that some of the Tabby’s Place kitties will be dressing up for Halloween. I wonder if they’ll let me dress up as a Taylor ham sandwich. Better yet, I wonder if they’ll let me eat a Taylor ham sandwich. After all, isn’t the best part of Halloween the treats? 😊

This month Tabby’s Place is celebrating its 21^st anniversary. And in those 21 years, nearly 4,500 cats have been saved from hopeless situations, including me. I’m so grateful this place exists.

We also just completed our most successful Linda Matching Challenge, which raises funds to cover the astronomical costs of care of those who arrive at Tabby’s Place with dire needs. As a cat that arrived here in bad shape and benefited directly from the Linda Fund, I can honestly say this fund changes lives.

All of this would not be possible without your love and support, which has played a big role in my happiness and my health. May your Halloween bucket overflow with lots of love and many treats!

XO,

Taylor Ham
