Well, I found out where LBK has been sleeping; under a tarp that I have around my patio furniture. I just don't get it. I put out a nice dog house w/the door off center so that s/he has a wall for protection from wind, there's a big, fluffy blanket inside, it's covered w/a tarp, it's on legs so that it's off the ground but s/he'd rather sleep on the cold concrete. I just now put a fluffy rug under the tarp until tomorrow morning. When the bitter, high winds have calmed down, I'll move the dog house near the tarped patio furniture and I'll put a heating pad on low so that, hopefully, s/he'll go in there.

I'm going to pay more attention to fliers to see if anyone is missing a black cat b/c if s/he belongs to someone, s/he's decided s/he likes it better here. S/he sits at my sliding door and cries and I can tell s/he's hungry but I don't want to feed him/her more than twice a day. I'm going to have to get him/her vetted and checked to see if s/he's been altered but w/all my Fur Posse's illnesses right now, my finances are stretched, especially w/Christmas next week.
