Thank you. I'm hoping to bring it to the Vet before winter, at least
get it shots. I can't get near it, will probably need to use my
have-a-heart trap. I don't know if it's a boy or girl but I'll also
have it fixed. I'm sure it visits other local cats and some visit my
barn, they probably share each others food. These cats travel long
distances, usually along rock walls, they've actually worn a path...
there's a rock wall inside that wall of hay. It's about a 20' wide
swarth of all kinds of plants and of course the remnants of the
hayfields, the cats patrol both sides and hunt in there. It's going
to be an early fall, I can already see tinges of color in the trees.
Newt will do well in my barn, there's a small house in there with lots
of blankets. I usually don't plow snow up to the barn but I will this
year so I can bring food and water. The water will probably freeze
but in a large enough pan it won't freeze right away. Time will tell.
