So on the 1st a huge blizzard rolled in very suddenly that lasted all night and well into the 2nd and Chibi, Mystery, and myself were caught up in it away from home. We had about 2 feet of snow dumped on us and it was blowing all around into massive drifts followed by a terrible super cold snap. When the snow stopped out caretakers went and cleared out what little snow hadn't drifted away from around our shelters and were very disheartened to find we weren't in any of them. All day on the 2nd there was no sign of us. On the 3rd there was a little food missing form our bowls but not enough for all three of us to have come and eaten so it may have been some other animal. Same with the 4th, a little food missing out of one of our bowls but mostly untouched. But tonight we all came back, we're warming our fannies on our heating pad, drinking from our heated water dish, and getting all the food we can eat! Not to mention our choice of 3 nice cozy shelters.

No sight of Jigsaw or Gulliver yet, but Jigsy only stops by once or twice a year as it is and was already spotted just a week ago and Gulliver we only see a few times a month. He's an unaltered tom cat always on the move- as soon as he gets settled the people are going to try and trap him an get him fixed to hopefully put a stop to his roaming ways. The important thing is that we made it, and to be honest Chibi is old as dirt for an outdoor cat, so if he made it most young and fit cats will have survived as well.
