Thanks for the note....Snowy is doing well but is an indoor/outdoor kitty now. This goes against everything I believe in, but the problem was just too bad. He is totally vaccinated; has his rabies tag, ID collar and flea collar, but he mainly lives out on my patio and does not go far. I bought him a house at Petco and he has warm blankets out there that he likes to sleep on. Plenty of food and water. When it gets too bad next winter, I will put him in the garage instead, but for now he seems to like this arrangement. He also likes coming inside when I am home and is quite a loving cat!
