Lilly and George DEFERDINANDO'S FAMILY FU R BA BY Both of these fur babies were rescues. Well, they found us! Lilly is our precious, all white, little girl!, weighing in at about 8 pounds She is six and half years old. She came into our lives on July 15th, 2015 by way of a neighbor who found her in her backyard with several puncture wounds from some animal and scrapes on her tiny face from trying to get through a fence. Then George came along. Our blue-eyed, red, and white handsome boy appeared on our doorstep while we were on vacation in October 2018. Our cat sitter said she had to feed him because he was so small. Two days later he was all ours at a whopping 4 1/2 pounds. He grew fast and now weighs almost 16 pounds of pure love and energy. If only they would love each other as much as we love them. 7 THE VERANO VOICE A KOLTER HOMES C O M M U N I T Y APRILAPRIL NATIONAL FACT DAYS APRIL FOOL'S DAY NATIONAL EARTH DAY 22 01 Some historians speculate that April Fools’ Day dates back to 1582 when France switched from Because there was no EPA, no Clean Air the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar.
