The New Year is here and all is well at PrideRock.  Gary and I were sick through Christmas and New Years, but all the animals have been taken care of and are healthy and happy.

We have lost volunteers and gained new ones and our new meat program is in full swing which should help PrideRock finances considerably.  Gary and a couple of helpers are working hard to make sure all the meat is good that is fed.  We have gotten some great stuff including salmon, steaks, roast, brisket, hamburger and even a little poultry.  With the variety, the cats seem to really like it and get something different each night. 

We have numerous projects in store for this year, some of which were on tab for last year, but we either ran out of money, or just didn’t have the time or people to do the job.  Gary still doesn’t have a job, but we have high hopes for everything coming together in 2010!  My resolution is make sure and blog more frequently so everyone will have a better idea about what is happening at PrideRock this year.

Happy New Year and keep on chuffin ~~

Merry Christmas has come an gone, Carol has been in bed with the flu or something as she  bemoans:

"The closest I can get to my tigers lately is looking at them out of my bedroom window. :-( I'm looking at my girl Shealee laying on her back on top of her house swishing her tail back and forth. Nice.. I'm sure she's wondering where the heck her mom is!! I think I must have the swine flu at this point.."

But as for me, I'm glad that she is getting better by the day and should be as good as new with the beginning of the New Year, So everyone have a Happy and Prosperous New Year!!!

Just returned from Plano where we attended Colin Lavalle's Eagle Scout Court of Honor ceremony. We were especially proud because he did his project at PrideRock which included replacing a tiger table and repairing a slope on a tiger house. We'll always be grateful to him and the other members of Troop 380 for making a difference in the lives of the cats at PrideRock.  Thank you Colin for a great job!
