It snowed again over the weekend. We go years and years without a single snowflake, yet it's snowed 3 times in less than 30 days here. Saturday night was supposed to be the big fundraiser/silent auction/social for the Cat Project that we have been preparing for since September of last year. We set up everything at the venue on Friday night. It broke our hearts to have to cancel on Saturday because of the snow.We ended up getting about 6" when the forecast was for 1-2". I've seriously had enough! Here are some pics I took at one of our feral colonies. They were very happy to see us and especially happy to see we brought food! I worry so much about all the outdoor kitties and other animals who are out in the cold and snow.
Be sure to check out the great items at the Friends of the CB auction site!!

the white furs blended so well i thought one of you were snow covered.

Thanks to you to look after them : )
That's too bad your fundraiser got snowed out. :-( I bet your kitty colony is not too thrilled about the snow either.
Those are interesting tracks...who could have made them? ;)
We worry for the outside cats this weather ~ thank goodness you take them food. Life must be so tough for them. We are purring for them.
Strange weather everywhere.
Sorry about your big fundraiser, hopefully you can try again soon!

So sorry the fundraiser was cancelled. Yes, the snow should stay in the north where people and critters love it.
pawhugs and hoping for a thaw for you,
Max
The weather has been so wacky!! We hope you can still do your fundraiser.
We hope the snow leaves you alone! We are used to it, so you can send it here!
We gots some white stuff, finally!!! We like to watch it fall!!! Send yours to uSSSSS!
Ummmmm.....we just realized that those pictures aren't photoshopped....YOU ARE OUT IN THE WHITE STUFF!!!!! How does it feel??? We have never been outside, well except for vet trips. Hmmm....you look a little cold! Purrhaps you should come inside!
Hello again, sorry we didn't realize it wasn't YOU outside. Mommy needs to get some coffee and her eyes checked!!!
We know that your Mommy would never let you outside.
The white stuff is fun to watch...from inside by the fireplace! MOL
COME ON OVER AND VISIT....WE CAN PLAY AND STAY WARM TOGETHER.
LOVE, uSSSSS
Dear Creek Cats Human: If you are missing your kitties, don't worry. They are over with uSSSSS playing THoE, snacking and staring a the fireplace through the "kitty proof" glass. They will be home later.
Love, uSSSSS
Good luck rescheduling the fundraiser!
Here we're used to the snow every winter...but we're sick of it all the same!
I'm sorry your fundraiser was cancelled, how frustrating!!! I hope you can find another date to hold it :-)
My heart breaks for kitties outside in the bad weather, at least your feral colony is lucky to have full tummies while they brave the elements. You are so good to look after them!
So sorry about your fundraiser being cancelled. We are purring that you can reschedule and raise tons of money. It breaks our hearts too about kitties out in the snow. It reminds of us of 2 years ago when Nigel was still homeless and uncatchable when we had so much snow here. Good thing we finally caught him.
Sorry that you had to cancel the fundraiser after so much planning and hard work. I didn't realize that was a cat in the second picture! I thought it was snow at first. LOL He better be careful not to get lost in the snow.
We purray for all the homeless kitties that are out in the elements.
We are so blessed to have a warm, loving home.

We were so surprised to hear about your snow over there on the coast. I worry about my outside guys too but they seem to manage some how. I think the food is the most important thing and some shelter and it sure looks like they have shelter there.Sure sorry about your fundraiser.
Stay warm everyone!!!
We hope you all keep warm and the snows is gone soon.
I HATE snow, but I would hate it even more if I was a feral kitty who had to live outside in it. That must surely be a rough life.
Sorry the fundraiser got cancelled after you did so much work. Those pictures are lovely but I know they tell a story of kitties out in the cold. I am glad that you are able to feed them and I know they will be so glad to see you. Thank you for what you do.. Hugs GJ xx
Meowm worries about the kitties in the cold here too. But she is glad we aren't in Minnesota and places like that where it is even colder.
We hope the fundraiser is rescheduled and is a big success! The photos are beautiful!
We hope you can reschedule your fundraiser.
Oh we worry about the kitties out in the snow and cold too....

Sorry to hear about your fundraiser!
I don't know that it's that kind of event but are you doing an auction of any kind? I would be willing to donate one of our books.
Oh, we are so sorry to hear the fundraiser had to be postponed! :(
Thank you for taking care of those kitties...
We are very sorry ta hear the fundraiser got snowed up (out?, in?, off?). We hope ya dont see anny snow for many more years!
my goodness that is a heck of a lot of white stuff. Thanks to your caring heart the feral kitties will have food and water to keep them going thru this cold spell.
I know! The snow, we are covered in it. Love the photos.
Hi all you beautiful fur babies! Ooooo, the photos are so, so gorgeous and our cousins are so, so lucky to have you around to care for them. We send you many paw blessings from us.
We scrolled up and down your page and thought we'd seen someone pass the Stylish Blogger Award to you but we don't see it. WE want to pass it to you as you are very, very stylish. Go to our page and grab it up and post it onto yours :D We are BIG fans of Creek Cats
xoxoxo
We hope that snow goes away! I haves nevers seen snow... but my mom has and she doesn't like it!
I hope the snow goes away soon so the fund raising can get back on a warm and dry track!
We are so sorry to hear that your fundraiser had to be postponed because of the snow. We hate the winter and can't wait for the spring. Thank you for taking care of those kitties without homes.
Glad they came thru OK! Ferals are pretty creative in finding warm shelter - at least it doesn't stay cold and snowy for long on the coast. Mom is having fun with the Cannon Rebel but just trying things out.
Stay nice, warm and safe in the snow. Thank you for coming by to visit Chancy and Company. Hugs and nose kisses.
I'm so sorry you got snowed out. That's a bummer. Hopefully you can get it made up. You take such good pictures. That white cat is stunning against the snow.
