It doesn't appear that he is using the shelter. I have a feeling that he belongs to someone and that he didn't come around for a while b/c they at least may have had the common sense to keep him indoors when the weather was so brutal. It warmed up today but the last few days were awful, sub freezing temps and high winds. I felt bad about any creature being out there. I can always tell how bad it is when I see that no birds are feeding.

I wish there was an outlet close to the shelter; I'd put a heating pad on low in between blankets as I used to do when I lived at the rental. But the shelter is on the side of the house that's better protected from the elements. If I move it to where the outlet is, there's more exposure plus my Fur Posse have an advantage of darting out the door if they see him and I sure don't want that! LBK's mew is so heartbreaking; it sounds as though he's crying. My cats all have distinct meows but none of them sound like that. It gives me LES just thinking about it.
