Wooo. Pig. Kitty, Kitty??  Maybe not usually, but that’s the way it was today as Feline Rescue and Rehome PR Team Barney and Shadow headed to a tailgating fundraiser for FuRR.

Chris Tirman and Dan Eaton of the Alloplastic Facial Reconstruction Clinic at B St. and Van Buren graciously let us use their parking lot to benefit our cats and kittens!

The lot filled quickly, and we set up a table by the sidewalk offering brownies, cookies, drinks and hot dogs for a donation to FuRR. Our main attractions, though were Barney and Shadow.  (more…)

Here concludes the ‘tail’ of  Feline Rescue and Rehome’s PR Team, Barney and Shadow at our big fundraiser sale last weekend.

Mr. Barney took the first day of the sale and was met with chilly weather and cold winds. Luckily, he had on his brand new  fleece coat that we won at Little Rock Animal Village’s recent third birthday celebration. The coat is a perfect fit, and Barney is pretty happy with it because it keeps him warm and doesn’t involve any kind of headgear!

Barney’s first act on the job was to snuggle up with Ms. Linda who put all our sale signs out. This is no small job, and Barney gave her a big thank-you purr. (more…)

This weekend was The Cat’s Meow, the huge fundraiser in Hillcrest for Feline Rescue and Rehome.

It is such a big job for FuRR PR team Barney and Shadow that they split the duties and each worked a day.

Shadow’s day was Saturday, which started off really cold, so he began the day keeping warm in his green coat with the faux-fur lined hood and gold skull and crossbones on the back. He actually handled the coat better than anyone who has worn it before him! He at least walked around in it, where Footsie and Alex had just sat.
