Just baited the trap and set it up at the road. Maybe I can get Mom tonite and be done with it. Overnight temps are very warm, so I can leave the trap un-attended, but that will change soon. Hopefully Mom has been staying at the bottom of the hill near the road too.

Caught!!!! I went down to the road to check the trap at 12:30AM, and lo, it was closed. Look what I found inside! This is just a little while ago, after bringing the trap into the garage, where Baby spent his first few nights before taking over the place. This one looks like another boy to me, and he's balck/white instead of grey/white. I brought Baby down just before snapping this pic and this one visibly calmed down just a smidgen. Baby tensed up just a smidgen. Looks a little road worn. I'm glad I got him, once the NH winter set in it would have been grim.

Cat names are real serious business! You don't just go and name them anything. It could take a long time before his name comes to me, or he tells me it!

God be with you and sweet Willi. It is so hard when our loved ones become ill and we are no longer able to help them. Willi's love for you sustains him for now - and it will also help you when the next very sad stage comes. Hugs and love to Willi and all his people.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you can take some comfort in knowing that he had a long and obviously very happy life. The days will go by and the hurt will ease some from this knowledge. Rest well sweet Cinnamon - and give my Amanda a kiss from me when you see her at the Rainbow Bridge. Love and hugs to you and yours.
