Hi, friends!
Have you missed me? Sorry it has been so long since I wrote my column! It is so difficult to work during the summer; all I want to do is laze around on my blanket by the front window and enjoy the sunshine! And the birds in the hedge outside my window like to sing and flutter their wings and I just love watching them!

So I hope you'll forgive my laziness, because there is a lot going on to be excited about. And the biggest and best thing is the upcoming Salem Friends of Felines Fundraising Event! Last year's event was so much fun that my tail is still trembling!

If you want to have a fantastic time, make sure you attend this event. And what is even more fun is volunteering to help out! Please contact Salem Friends of Felines for tickets or to volunteer. Their number is 503-362-5611.

Some of the great auction items include a trip for two to Disneyland, and a trip for two to Cancun, plus lots of other great items donated by Friends of Felines sponsors and supporters.

This event, not only being a lot of fun, goes to help all of the amazing kitties at Salem Friends of Felines. These are sweet, loving kitties who desperately want to be adopted into a forever home, and they deserve that home! The folks at Salem Friends of Felines work so hard to care for and find homes for the kitties in their care, and until you visit the center and spend time with the kitties, you don't know what you're missing. I was once a kitty at Friends of Felines, and I'll never forget how they loved and cared for me until my humans came along and took me home. And the joy I felt when I finally had my forever home can not be described. You can give that some joy to a fantastic kitty!

Anyway, that's all I have to say about that! Please send me your letters with any questions you might have concerning all things "cat," and I'll answer them for you!

Take care of yourselves, and love a kitty today!
Your friend,
Obie
