Coordinator Report – Lauren Buckingham

Great day today with lots of volunteers coming in to help.  Yellow shirt, Alyssa, is back after a short while away. It is was great to have her.  Cindy, Mike, Vanessa, Steph C , and Phyllis all came in to help get the cats fed and cleaned.

We had an Ed tour mid-morning, which Dylan, Elle, and Redshirt Jefferey helped with.  Fred got his 10-week reward as today was his last day of level 3. He did operant with Amanda Tiger and Nikki Lion.

BethAnn and Candy made sure the cats got their cicles. They also made more out of the blood we had in food prep.  Intern Susana did her final solo tour sign-off.  Yellows, Bethany and Alyssa, scrubbed the front of both of the big external freezers… they look great!

Mary Ellen did the 9 am Private Tour, leaving Pam to cover the gift shop whilst Karma was doing Cyber Monday Shipping.

Picky cats ate well for the most part.

That’s it from me!
