Hi Everyone <3

Thanks for reaching out. I am still in the same house, although I have been looking constantly, but the real estate market is very tough. More importantly, Oscar seems fine ... .eating and pooping and avoiding me! I have given up hope that he will ever see me as more than just a predator, but I have accepted that. I go in 3 times a day to visit and feed him and haven't missed a day yet. It's been over two years that he's been in there! I am grateful that knock on wood, no health ailments that I know of. Poop looks good and appetite consistent.

I will post a picture of the floofy boy this weekend.

I am glad he has the floof . . .it's been dipping down to 12 degrees F a few nights so I have a heated pad and the igloo bed with a heated pad in it. I still worry, but no wind in there and no rain or snow so he should be OK.

Thanks so much for checking in on us. I did put the trap smack in the middle of the shed so hopefully when I do move, he will not be alarmed by it.

Keep on the look out for some pics.

With love, hugs, and lots of cat fur.

Liz

Yeah, it's tough times right now. But never lose hope! An online friend who's been in need of a job so she could keep her house and feed her cats and herself for over a year now, just found one. That's tantamount to a miracle after a lot of people, I think, gave up on it ever happening. So chin up! ;) and also about that big floof. Feral cats rescued and brought inside, including my beloved angel Suha, have gone from frightened, fierce little whirlwinds to lapcats. That's just happened with another friend who rescued and brought in a feral guy. He's now enjoying laptime and snorgles.
Can't wait to see pix!

Thanks for the update. Glad to hear Oscar is still doing well, even if he continues to hide from you. Thanks again for all you've done and are doing for him. Looking forward to seeing pics.
